Cancer-associated osteoclast differentiation takes a good look in the miR(NA)ror.

چکیده
Tumor-bone cell interactions are critical for the development of metastasis-related osteolytic bone destruction. In this issue of Cancer Cell, Ell and colleagues show how a discrete miRNA network regulates osteoclastogenesis during breast cancer bone metastasis. A signature of upregulated miRNAs may have diagnostic and therapeutic implications for bone metastases.

Linkage between Large intergenic non-coding RNA regulator of reprogramming and Stemness State in Samples with Helicobacter pylori Infection of Gastric Cancer Cells
Background: Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), as non-protein coding transcripts, play key roles in tumor progression and stemness state in many malignancies, as their aberrant expression has been found in gastric cancer (GC) as one of the most common cancer worldwide. LINC-ROR (large intergenic noncoding RNA regulator of reprogramming) identified as an involved lncRNA in human malignancies, howeve...
متن کاملOsteoclastic miR-214 targets TRAF3 to contribute to osteolytic bone metastasis of breast cancer
The role of osteoclastic miRNAs in regulating osteolytic bone metastasis (OBM) of breast cancer is still underexplored. Here, we examined the expression profiles of osteoclastogenic miRNAs in human bone specimens and identified that miR-214-3p was significantly upregulated in breast cancer patients with OBM. Consistently, we found increased miR-214-3p within osteoclasts, which was associated wi...
متن کاملMicroRNAs as regulators of tumor-associated stromal cells
The interplay between tumor and stromal cells represents an essential component of tumor progression and metastasis, and has become a focal point of current research efforts. Tumor-stromal interactions support early events in tumorigenesis, mediate the formation of pre-metastatic niches, and regulate the initiation and progression of distant metastases. Developing a better understanding of stro...
متن کاملmiRNA-340 inhibits osteoclast differentiation via repression of MITF
Many miRNAs play critical roles in modulating various biological processes of osteoclast differentiation and function. Microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF), a target of miR-340, served as pivotal transcription factor involved in osteoclast differentiation. However, the role of miR-340 and MITF during osteoclast differentiation has not yet been clearly established. Tartrate-resi...
متن کاملTransforming Growth Factor β1/Smad4 Signaling Affects Osteoclast Differentiation via Regulation of miR-155 Expression
Transforming growth factor β1 (TGFβ1)/Smad4 signaling plays a pivotal role in maintenance of the dynamic balance between bone formation and resorption. The microRNA miR-155 has been reported to exert a significant role in the differentiation of macrophage and dendritic cells. The goal of this study was to determine whether miR-155 regulates osteoclast differentiation through TGFβ1/Smad4 signali...
