BACKGROUND AND AIM MicroRNA-375 (miR-375) is frequently demonstrated to be frequently dysregulated and functions as a tumor suppressor or an oncogene in different cancer types. However, its roles in human gliomas have not been reported. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression pattern and clinical significance of miR-375 in patients with gliomas. METHODS Real-time quantitative ...

One of the major challenges in the hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treatment is its insensitivity to chemotherapeutic drugs. Here, we report the development of novel lipid-coated cisplatin nanoparticles co-loaded with microRNA-375 (NPC/miR-375) as a potential treatment for chemotherapy insensitive HCC. The NPC/miR-375 was fabricated by mixing two reverse microemulsions containing KCl solution an...

Pupose:In order to develop a treatment for recessive retinitis pigmentosa the ultimate objective is to introduce a normal copy of the abnormal gene into photoreceptors. The post-mitotic status of photoreceptor cells make them unsuitable targets for existing retroviral vectors. One of the strategies that we have been exploiting is adenoviral (AV) mediated gene transfer. Here we report successful...

Recent studies have shown that DNA methylation in the promoter of microRNA-375 (miR-375) downregulates its expression during tumorigenesis. However, it is not known if CpG methylation of the miR-375 promoter also has a role in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In this study, the expression level and CpG methylation status of miR-375 in patients with T2DM were analyzed. Plasma...

In this study, we identified five miRNAs highly expressed in the small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) cell line NCI-H209. Among them, the expression levels of miR-375 were dramatically elevated in all SCLC cell lines examined, coincident with the expression of the transcription factor achaete-scute complex homolog 1 (ASCL1). Moreover, miR-375 was upregulated and correlated with ASCL1 in the cell lines...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) are believed to have great potential for use as molecular targets in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. In this study, we demonstrate that miR-375 is downregulated in pancreatic carcinoma (PC) tissues and PC cell lines. We found that miR-375 negatively regulates the expression of 3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase 1 (PDK1) by directly targeting the 3'UTR ...

We aimed to detect the functions of miR-375/SLC7A11 axis on oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cell proliferation and invasion. Expression levels of miR-375 and SLC7A11 in OSCC tissues and cells were measured with RT-qPCR and western blot. Targeting site was predicted by TargetScan and confirmed by dual luciferase reporting assay. By way of manipulating the expression level of miR-375 and SLC7...

Androgen receptor (AR) plays a critical role during the development and progression of prostate cancer in which microRNA miR-375 is overexpressed and correlated with tumor progression. Although DNA methylation is a key mechanism for the repression of gene expression, the relationship between AR and the expression or the hypermethylation of miR-375 is unknown. In this study, we found that AR-pos...

Due to its aggressive nature, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most lethal and hard-to-treat malignancies. Recently developed targeted molecular strategies have contributed to remarkable improvements in the treatment of several cancers. However, such therapies have not been applied to PDAC. Therefore, new treatment options are needed for PDAC based on current genomic approa...
