Regulation of cardiac microRNAs by cardiac microRNAs.
RATIONALE MicroRNAs modestly suppress their direct mRNA targets, and these direct effects are amplified by modulation of gene transcription pathways. Consequently, indirect mRNA modulatory effects of microRNAs to increase or decrease mRNAs greatly outnumber direct target suppressions. Because microRNAs are products of transcription, the potential exists for microRNAs that regulate transcription...
متن کاملmicrornas and asthma regulation.
micrornas participate in the regulation of asthma, the goal of this study is to summarize recent researches on the roles of micrornas in the pathogenesis of asthma. a review of the english medical literatures was conducted by searching pubmed for studies concerning asthma and micrornas. the results of the present study indicate that micrornas play important roles in regulating asthma immune res...
متن کاملRegulation of signalling by microRNAs.
Stringent regulation of biochemical signalling pathways involves feedback and feedforward loops, which underlie robust cellular responses to external stimuli. Regulation occurs in all horizontal layers of signalling networks, primarily by proteins that mediate internalization of receptor-ligand complexes, dephosphorylation of kinases and their substrates, as well as transcriptional repression. ...
متن کاملRegulation of hepatocarcinogenesis by microRNAs.
Liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma, HCC) is a major malignancy worldwide. Etiologically, hepatocarcinogenesis is closely associated with HBV and HCV infections; however, its underlying molecular mechanism is not completely understood. MicroRNAs are a class of small non-coding RNAs that negatively regulate gene expression by interacting with the 3'UTR of protein-coding mRNA. MicroRNAs are im...
متن کاملActivation of Cardiac Gene Expression by Myocardin, a Transcriptional Cofactor for Serum Response Factor
Serum response factor (SRF) regulates transcription of numerous muscle and growth factor-inducible genes. Because SRF is not muscle specific, it has been postulated to activate muscle genes by recruiting myogenic accessory factors. Using a bioinformatics-based screen for unknown cardiac-specific genes, we identified a novel and highly potent transcription factor, named myocardin, that is expres...
