Tumour suppressors miR-1 and miR-133a target the oncogenic function of purine nucleoside phosphorylase ( PNP ) in prostate cancer

TL;DR: The PNP is a novel target gene of both miRNAs and potentially functions as an oncogene and may provide new insights into the underlying causes of PCa oncogenesis, which is a frequent event in PCa and both function as tumour suppressors.

Genistein Inhibits Prostate Cancer Cell Growth by Targeting miR-34a and Oncogenic HOTAIR

TL;DR: Genistein is a soy isoflavone that has antitumor activity both in vitro and in vivo as mentioned in this paper, it has been shown that genistein inhibits many type of cancers including prostate cancer (PCa) by regulating several cell signaling pathways and microRNAs (miRNA).
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of high-molecular-weight proteins with multiple EGF-like motifs by motif-trap screening.

TL;DR: Five known and nine new genes for proteins with multiple EGF-like-motifs from 8000 redundant human brain cDNA clones are identified, demonstrating that motif-trap screening is a powerful tool for the discovery of new genes that have been difficult to identify by conventional methods.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tumor suppressive microRNA-1285 regulates novel molecular targets: Aberrant expression and functional significance in renal cell carcinoma

TL;DR: Downregulation of tumor suppressive miR-1285, which targets oncogenic genes including TGM2, might contribute to RCC development and provides new insights into potential mechanisms of RCC oncogenesis.
