TLDR
It is found that miR-7 down-regulates EGFR mRNA and protein expression in cancer cell lines (lung, breast, and glioblastoma) via two of the three sites, inducing cell cycle arrest and cell death.

Circular RNA and miR-7 in Cancer

TL;DR: The current knowledge about the ciRS-7/miR-7 axis in cancer-related pathways is reviewed and possible models explaining the relevance of coexpressing miR- 7 along with a circRNA inhibitor are discussed.

Mechanisms of miRNA-mediated post-transcriptional regulation in animal cells

TL;DR: Current progress in understanding how miRNAs execute these effects in animals is reviewed and some of the controversies regarding different modes of miRNA function are discussed.

Repression of α-synuclein expression and toxicity by microRNA-7

TL;DR: It is shown that microRNA-7 (miR-7), which is expressed mainly in neurons, represses α- synuclein protein levels through the 3′-untranslated region (UTR) of α-synuclein mRNA, which provides a mechanism by which α- Synuclein levels are regulated in neurons and protects cells against oxidative stress.

Analysis of relative gene expression data using real-time quantitative pcr and the 2(-delta delta c(t)) method

TL;DR: The 2-Delta Delta C(T) method as mentioned in this paper was proposed to analyze the relative changes in gene expression from real-time quantitative PCR experiments, and it has been shown to be useful in the analysis of realtime, quantitative PCR data.

MicroRNAs: Genomics, Biogenesis, Mechanism, and Function

TL;DR: Although they escaped notice until relatively recently, miRNAs comprise one of the more abundant classes of gene regulatory molecules in multicellular organisms and likely influence the output of many protein-coding genes.

Conserved seed pairing, often flanked by adenosines, indicates that thousands of human genes are microRNA targets

TL;DR: In a four-genome analysis of 3' UTRs, approximately 13,000 regulatory relationships were detected above the estimate of false-positive predictions, thereby implicating as miRNA targets more than 5300 human genes, which represented 30% of the gene set.

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.
