HDACs and HDAC Inhibitors in Cancer Development and Therapy
Yixuan Li,Edward Seto +1 more
TL;DR: The role of HDACs in cancer and the therapeutic potential ofHDAC inhibitors (HDACi) as emerging drugs in cancer treatment are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Suppression of hepatitis B virus replication by microRNA-199a-3p and microRNA-210
TL;DR: The results suggest that up-regulation of miR-199a-3p and miG2 2.2.15 cells compared to HepG2 cells may play a role in regulating HBV replication and maintenance of a suitable level of virion production in persistent infection by targeting crucial HBV genes.
Journal ArticleDOI
MicroRNA-9 inhibits ovarian cancer cell growth through regulation of NF-κB1
TL;DR: The studies show that microRNA‐9 (miR‐9) is downregulated in human ovarian cancer relative to normal ovary, and overexpression of miR-9 suppresses cell growth in vitro, and the 3′‐UTR of NF‐κB1 mRNA is found to be regulated directly by miR‐ 9, demonstrating that NF‐σB1 is a functionally important target of mi R‐9 in ovarian cancer cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regulation of the cell cycle gene, BTG2, by miR-21 in human laryngeal carcinoma
TL;DR: Findings indicate that aberrant expression of miR-21 may contribute to the malignant phenotype of laryngeal carcinoma by maintaining a low level of BTG2, which is known to act as a pan-cell cycle regulator and tumor suppressor.
Journal ArticleDOI
MicroRNA-214 is aberrantly expressed in cervical cancers and inhibits the growth of HeLa cells.
TL;DR: Overexpression of miR‐214 in HeLa cells, a human cervical cancer cell line, significantly inhibited cell proliferation according to the MTT and colony forming assays, and investigation revealed that miR-214 regulates the expression of MEK3 and JNK1 by targeting the 3′UTRs of these genes.
