A comprehensive review of microRNA-related polymorphisms in gastric cancer.
نویسندگان
چکیده
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small non-coding RNA molecules of about 22 nucleotides in length. miRNAs are highly conserved in both plants and animals, and function as gene regulators by binding to the 3'-untranslated region of target mRNAs for cleavage and/or translational repression. miRNA biogenesis, stability, and regulation of expression are strongly sequence dependent. Sequence variants, such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in pri-miRNA, pre-miRNA, promoter regions, or miRNA-target sites, can influence miRNA function, thereby contributing to the pathological features of human disease. In this review, we focus on miRNA-related SNPs in gastric cancer and comprehensively analyze some commonly studied SNPs.

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: ...

Nonstroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) including ibuprofen have been shown to decrease the growth of cancer cells. Owning to the involvement of microRNAs in development of cancer, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of ibuprofen on the expression level of some microRNAs including hsa-miR-4290, hsa-miR-22 and hsa-Let-7b in MKN-45 cells. First, the growth inhibitory effect of i...

Background: North of Iran is amongst high incidence rate areas of gastric carcinoma where environmental carcinogenic compounds especially agricultural pesticides are massively used. Cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1) enzyme metabolically activates a large number of low molecular mass xenobiotics. The polymorphic nature of cyp2E1 gene control elements is associated with interindividual differences...

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 کاملAssociation of CAT C-262T and SOD1 A251G single nucleotide polymorphisms susceptible to gastric cancer
Oxidative stress is known to be one of the major factors involved in the development and progression of cancer. Oxidative stress can occur due to an imbalance between concentrations of reactive oxygen species and antioxidant capacities. Catalase (CAT; OMIM 115500) and superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1; OMIM 147450) play important roles in the primary defense against oxidative stress. In the present ...
