The C. elegans heterochronic gene lin-4 encodes small RNAs with antisense complementarity to lin-14

TL;DR: Two small lin-4 transcripts of approximately 22 and 61 nt were identified in C. elegans and found to contain sequences complementary to a repeated sequence element in the 3' untranslated region (UTR) of lin-14 mRNA, suggesting that lin- 4 regulates lin- 14 translation via an antisense RNA-RNA interaction.

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.

MicroRNA gene expression deregulation in human breast cancer.

TL;DR: It is shown that, compared with normal breast tissue, miRNAs are also aberrantly expressed in human breast cancer, and the overall miRNA expression could clearly separate normal versus cancer tissues, with the most significantly deregulated mi RNAs being mir-125b, mir-145, mir -21, and mir-155.
