Abstract Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous, non-coding short RNAs (~22 nt) that can downregulate gene expression by translational repression, mRNA degradation, or transcriptional repression. miRNA misregulation has been implicated in pathogenic alterations such as cancer. In order to investigate microRNA functions in gene regulation and/or to modulate their expression in pathogenic...
متن کاملThe miR526b-5p-Related Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms, rs72618599, Located in 3\'-UTR of TCF3 Gene, is Associated with the Risk of Breast and Gastric Cancers
Introduction: Single nucleotide polymorphisms result in dysregulation of the proto-oncogene TCF3 gene, which is associated with the development, metastasis, and chemoresistance of different malignancies. Methods: GSE10810 microarray dataset and GEPIA2 online software were used to find differentially expressed genes and the TCF3 status in breast cancer (BC) and gastric cancer (GC), respectively....
متن کاملMicroRNA binding site polymorphisms as biomarkers in cancer management and research
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important regulators of eukaryotic gene expression. They have been implicated in a broad range of biological processes, and miRNA-related genetic alterations probably underlie several human diseases. Single nucleotide polymorphisms of transcripts may modulate the posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression by miRNAs and explain interindividual variability in cancer ...
متن کاملThe Relationship between Gastric Carcinogenesis Susceptibility and Some SNPs in MicroRNA Genes in General Population of Ardabil Province
Background & Objectives: Gastric cancer is the fourth most common cancer in the world and Ardabil province is in the top ranks in the world. MicroRNAs are non-coding RNA molecules with a length of 18 to 21 nucleotides and due to their regulatory role in post- transcriptional gene expression; single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) could affect their function on target genes regulation. Methods: ...
متن کاملP-196: Association rs3819392 Single Nucleotide Polymorphism within The KIT Gene with Azoospermic Male Infertility
Background: Recent studies have shown that KIT is expressed in the cytoplasm of the spermatogonia, acrosomal granules and leydig cells. Reduction in KIT expression in oligozoospermia with an increase in the germ cell apoptosis process. Three single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been identified and these have been studied to discover KIT role in the male infertility. The aim of this study...
