MiRNA-210: A Current Overview.

TLDR
A current overview on the involvement of miRNA-210 in biological processes and diseases is provided and a variety of miR-210 targets have been identified pointing to its role, not only in mitochondrial metabolism, but also in angiogenesis, the DNA damage response, cell proliferation, and apoptosis.
Abstract
microRNAs (miRNAs) are a group of highly conserved small non-coding RNAs that were found to enhance mRNA degradation or inhibit post-transcriptional translation. Accumulating evidence indicates that miRNAs contribute to tumorigenesis and cancer metastasis. microRNA-210 has been largely studied in the past several years and has been identified as a major miRNA induced under hypoxia. A variety of miR-210 targets have been identified pointing to its role, not only in mitochondrial metabolism, but also in angiogenesis, the DNA damage response, cell proliferation, and apoptosis. Based on earlier research findings, this review aims to provide a current overview on the involvement of miRNA-210 in biological processes and diseases.

Tumor pH and metastasis: a malignant process beyond hypoxia

TL;DR: An overview on the impact of low pH on different steps of metastasis including local tumor cell invasion and angiogenesis, intravasation of tumor cells and detachment into the circulation, and (c) adherence of circulating tumor cells, transmigration and invasion in the new host tissue are described.

TL;DR: This work elucidated a specific sequence of the OA key events that are described best as a very early phase of proliferation of human articular cartilage cells and concomitant anabolic/catabolic effects that are accompanied by incipient pro-inflammatory effects.

MiR-210-3p protects endometriotic cells from oxidative stress-induced cell cycle arrest by targeting BARD1.

TL;DR: The results suggest that miR-210-3p attenuates the G2/M cell cycle checkpoint by inactivating BRCA1 complex function in response to DNA damage under hypoxia via targeting the 3′ untranslated region of BARD1 mRNA.
