Tunneling Nanotubes Mediated microRNA-155 Intercellular Transportation Promotes Bladder Cancer Cells' Invasive and Proliferative Capacity.

TL;DR: Investigation of differential microRNAs' expression in heterogeneous bladder cancer cells foundMiR-155 was confirmed to be a crucial factor sustaining T24 bladder cancer cell proliferation, migration and cell cycle progression by CCK8, Matrigel test andcell cycle analysis, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fibroblast growth factor receptors: multifactorial-contributors to tumor initiation and progression.

TL;DR: This review focuses on recent advances in the relationship between FGFR disorders and tumorigenesis, and examines the role of methylation, histone remodeling, microRNA regulation, single nucleotide polymorphisms, amplification, and fusion of FGFRs with other genes.

Tumor miR-125b predicts recurrence and survival of patients with clear-cell renal cell carcinoma after surgical resection

TL;DR: The results showed that tumor miR‐125b is a potential independent adverse prognostic biomarker for recurrence and survival of patients with ccRCC after nephrectomy.

Urinary microRNAs as potential biomarkers of pesticide exposure.

TL;DR: Six miRNAs were observed to be positively associated with farmworkers status during the post-harvest season and Expression of five of these miRNA trended towards a positive dose response relationship with organophosphate pesticide metabolites in farmworkers.

MicroRNAs: Target Recognition and Regulatory Functions

TL;DR: The current understanding of miRNA target recognition in animals is outlined and the widespread impact of miRNAs on both the expression and evolution of protein-coding genes is discussed.

A microRNA polycistron as a potential human oncogene

TL;DR: It is found that the levels of the primary or mature microRNAs derived from the mir-17–92 locus are often substantially increased in human B-cell lymphomas, and the cluster is implicate as a potential human oncogene.

Mammalian microRNAs predominantly act to decrease target mRNA levels

TL;DR: Results show that changes in mRNA levels closely reflect the impact of miRNAs on gene expression and indicate that destabilization of target mRNAs is the predominant reason for reduced protein output.

Mammalian microRNAs predominantly act to decrease target mRNA levels

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used ribosome profiling to measure the overall effects on protein production and compare these to simultaneously measured effects on mRNA levels, showing that changes in mRNA levels closely reflect the impact of miRNAs on gene expression and indicate that destabilization of target mRNAs is the predominant reason for reduced protein output.
