Novel techniques and targets in cardiovascular microRNA research.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are highly conserved, tiny (∼22 nucleotides) non-coding RNAs that have emerged as potent regulators of mRNA translation. miRNAs exhibit fine-tuning of the control of proteins involved in cell signalling (AE) pathways and in vital cellular and developmental processes. miRNAs are expressed in cardiovascular tissues, and multiple functional aspects of miRNAs underscore their key...
متن کاملFrom microRNA functions to microRNA therapeutics: Novel targets and novel drugs in breast cancer research and treatment
MicroRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) are a family of small non‑coding RNAs that regulate gene expression by the sequence-selective targeting of mRNAs, leading to translational repression or mRNA degradation, depending on the degree of complementarity with target mRNA sequences. miRNAs play a crucial role in cancer. In the case of breast tumors, several studies have demonstrated a correlation between: i) ...
متن کاملAdvances in the Techniques for the Prediction of microRNA Targets
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, non-coding, endogenous RNA molecules that play important roles in a variety of normal and diseased biological processes by post-transcriptionally regulating the expression of target genes. They can bind to target messenger RNA (mRNA) transcripts of protein-coding genes and negatively control their translation or cause mRNA degradation. miRNAs have been found to act...
متن کاملIntegrated microRNA and protein expression analysis reveals novel microRNA regulation of targets in fetal down syndrome
Down syndrome (DS) is caused by trisomy of human chromosome 21 and is associated with a number of deleterious phenotypes. To investigate the role of microRNA (miRNA) in the regulation of DS, high‑throughput Illumina sequencing technology and isobaric tagging for relative and absolute protein quantification analysis were utilized for simultaneous expression profiling of miRNA and protein in fetu...
متن کاملNovel molecular targets regulated by tumor suppressors microRNA-1 and microRNA-133a in bladder cancer.
Our expression signatures of human cancer including bladder cancer (BC) revealed that the expression of microRNA-1 (miR-1) and microRNA-133a (miR-133a) is significantly reduced in cancer cells. In the human genome, miR-1 and miR-133a are located on the same chromosomal region (miR-1-2 and miR-133a-1 on 18q11.2, and miR-1-1 and miR-133a-2 on 20q13....
