Lin28 and let-7: roles and regulation in liver diseases.
The diagnosis and treatment of liver disease remain a major health concern worldwide because of the diverse etiologies of this disease. For this reason, new therapeutic targets are greatly needed to halt the progression of this damaging disease. Upon initiation of liver injury by viral infection, autoimmune disease or toxin, and/or hepatitis, chronic disease may develop, which can progress to c...
متن کاملRegulation of stem cell pluripotency and neural differentiation by lysophospholipids.
Lysophospholipids are bioactive signalling molecules able to act through the binding of their specific G-protein-coupled receptors to exert pleiotropic effects on a wide range of cells. The most widely studied signalling lysophospholipids are lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) and sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P). LPA and S1P have been identified to have widespread developmental, physiological and pathol...
متن کاملH19/let-7/LIN28 reciprocal negative regulatory circuit promotes breast cancer stem cell maintenance
Long noncoding RNA-H19 (H19), an imprinted oncofetal gene, has a central role in carcinogenesis. Hitherto, the mechanism by which H19 regulates cancer stem cells, remains elusive. Here we show that breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs) express high levels of H19, and ectopic overexpression of H19 significantly promotes breast cancer cell clonogenicity, migration and mammosphere-forming ability. Conv...
متن کاملThe LIN28/let-7 Pathway in Cancer
Among all tumor suppressor microRNAs, reduced let-7 expression occurs most frequently in cancer and typically correlates with poor prognosis. Activation of either LIN28A or LIN28B, two highly related RNA binding proteins (RBPs) and proto-oncogenes, is responsible for the global post-transcriptional downregulation of the let-7 microRNA family observed in many cancers. Specifically, LIN28A binds ...
متن کاملTumor and Stem Cell Biology LIN28 Expression in Malignant Germ Cell Tumors Downregulates let-7 and Increases Oncogene Levels
Despite their clinicopathologic heterogeneity, malignant germ cell tumors (GCT) share molecular abnormalities that are likely to be functionally important. In this study, we investigated the potential significance of downregulation of the let-7 family of tumor suppressor microRNAs in malignant GCTs. Microarray results from pediatric and adult samples (n1⁄4 45) showed that LIN28, the negative re...
