MicroRNA 23b regulates autophagy associated with radioresistance of pancreatic cancer cells.

TLDR
Reduced levels of the miRNA miR-23b increase levels of ATG12 and autophagy to promote radioresistance and might be used to increase the sensitivity of pancreatic cancer cells to radiation therapy.

Modulation of inflammation by autophagy: Consequences for human disease

TL;DR: The crosstalk between autophagy and inflammation is focused on as an emerging field with major implications for understanding the host defense on the one hand, and for the pathogenesis and treatment of immune-mediated diseases on the other hand.

PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway inhibitors enhance radiosensitivity in radioresistant prostate cancer cells through inducing apoptosis, reducing autophagy, suppressing NHEJ and HR repair pathways

TL;DR: The findings from this study suggest that the combination of dual PI3K/Akt/mTOR inhibitors (BEZ235 or PI103) with radiotherapy is a promising modality for the treatment of CaP to overcome radioresistance.

TL;DR: The reduction in overall cancer death rates since 1990 in men and 1991 in women translates to the avoidance of about 1,024,400 deaths from cancer, which can be accelerated by applying existing cancer control knowledge across all segments of the population, with an emphasis on those groups in the lowest socioeconomic bracket.

Oncomirs : microRNAs with a role in cancer

TL;DR: I MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are an abundant class of small non-protein-coding RNAs that function as negative gene regulators as discussed by the authors, and have been shown to repress the expression of important cancer-related genes and might prove useful in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer.

Oncomirs — microRNAs with a role in cancer

TL;DR: Evidence has shown that miRNA mutations or mis-expression correlate with various human cancers and indicates that miRNAs can function as tumour suppressors and oncogenes.

Microarray analysis shows that some microRNAs downregulate large numbers of target mRNAs

TL;DR: These results suggest that metazoan miRNAs can reduce the levels of many of their target transcripts, not just the amount of protein deriving from these transcripts, and seem to downregulate a far greater number of targets than previously appreciated.
