MicroRNAs as regulators of drug abuse and immunity.

Central-European journal of immunology

Zhang K, Jing X, Wang G.
PMID: 28450806
Cent Eur J Immunol. 2016;41(4):426-434. doi: 10.5114/ceji.2016.65142. Epub 2017 Jan 24.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are 20-22 nucleotide non-coding RNAs that participate in gene regulation. They bind to 3'-untranslated regions of their mRNA targets, inhibiting the transcripts' translation and/or destabilizing them. Chronic drug abuse induces changes of miRNAs expression in the brain,...

MicroRNA binding site polymorphisms as biomarkers in cancer management and research.

Pharmacogenomics and personalized medicine

Cipollini M, Landi S, Gemignani F.
PMID: 25114582
Pharmgenomics Pers Med. 2014 Jul 23;7:173-91. doi: 10.2147/PGPM.S61693. eCollection 2014.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important regulators of eukaryotic gene expression. They have been implicated in a broad range of biological processes, and miRNA-related genetic alterations probably underlie several human diseases. Single nucleotide polymorphisms of transcripts may modulate the posttranscriptional regulation...

Selective repression of the oncogene cyclin D1 by the tumor suppressor miR-206 in cancers.

Oncogenesis

Elliman SJ, Howley BV, Mehta DS, Fearnhead HO, Kemp DM, Barkley LR.
PMID: 25111862
Oncogenesis. 2014 Aug 11;3:e113. doi: 10.1038/oncsis.2014.26.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are deregulated in cancer and have been shown to exhibit both oncogenic and tumor suppressive functions. Although the functional effects of several miRNAs have been elucidated, those of many remain to be discovered. In silico analysis identified...

Evaluation of miR-29c inhibits endotheliocyte migration and angiogenesis of human endothelial cells by suppressing the insulin like growth factor 1.

American journal of translational research

Hu Y, Deng F, Song J, Lin J, Li X, Tang Y, Zhou J, Tang T, Zheng L.
PMID: 26045889
Am J Transl Res. 2015 Mar 15;7(3):489-501. eCollection 2015.

MicroRNAs, a class of 22-nucleotide non-coding RNAs, modulate gene expression by associating with the 3'-untranslated regions (3'-UTRs) of messenger RNAs (mRNAs). Although multiple miRNAs are known to be regulated during angiogenesis, their individual roles in blood vessel development are...

Biotechnology, biotechnological equipment

Sun Y, Zhang X, Xi D, Li G, Wang L, Zheng H, Du M, Gu Z, Yang Y, Yang Y.
PMID: 26019617
Biotechnol Biotechnol Equip. 2015 Jan 02;29(1):33-39. doi: 10.1080/13102818.2014.986128. Epub 2014 Dec 16.

The mammalian major histocompatibility complex (MHC) plays important roles in pathogen recognition and disease resistance. In the present study, the coding sequence and the 5'- and 3'-untranslated regions of MHC class II DR alpha chain (the DRA gene) from...

Electroacupuncture Alleviates Surgical Trauma-Induced Hypothalamus Pituitary Adrenal Axis Hyperactivity Via microRNA-142.

Frontiers in molecular neuroscience

Zhu J, Chen Z, Meng Z, Ju M, Zhang M, Wu G, Guo H, Tian Z.
PMID: 29021740
Front Mol Neurosci. 2017 Sep 27;10:308. doi: 10.3389/fnmol.2017.00308. eCollection 2017.

Electroacupuncture (EA) could improve the hyperactivity of the hypothalamus pituitary adrenal (HPA) axis induced by hepatectomy. However, its underlying mechanism still remains largely unclear. Here, we found that hypothalamic corticotrophin releasing hormone (CRH) modulates the function of the HPA...

Pedigree based DNA sequencing pipeline for germline genomes of cancer families.

Hereditary cancer in clinical practice

Försti A, Kumar A, Paramasivam N, Schlesner M, Catalano C, Dymerska D, Lubinski J, Eils R, Hemminki K.
PMID: 27508007
Hered Cancer Clin Pract. 2016 Aug 09;14:16. doi: 10.1186/s13053-016-0058-1. eCollection 2016.

BACKGROUND: In the course of our whole-genome sequencing efforts, we have developed a pipeline for analyzing germline genomes from Mendelian types of cancer pedigrees (familial cancer variant prioritization pipeline, FCVPP).RESULTS: The variant calling step distinguishes two types of genomic...

Dysregulation of Alternative Poly-adenylation as a Potential Player in Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Frontiers in molecular neuroscience

Szkop KJ, Cooke PIC, Humphries JA, Kalna V, Moss DS, Schuster EF, Nobeli I.
PMID: 28955198
Front Mol Neurosci. 2017 Sep 13;10:279. doi: 10.3389/fnmol.2017.00279. eCollection 2017.

We present here the hypothesis that alternative poly-adenylation (APA) is dysregulated in the brains of individuals affected by Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), due to disruptions in the calcium signaling networks. APA, the process of selecting different poly-adenylation sites on...

Association of the Serotonin Receptor 3E Gene as a Functional Variant in the MicroRNA-510 Target Site with Diarrhea Predominant Irritable Bowel Syndrome in Chinese Women.

Journal of neurogastroenterology and motility

Zhang Y, Li Y, Hao Z, Li X, Bo P, Gong W.
PMID: 26787495
J Neurogastroenterol Motil. 2016 Apr 30;22(2):272-81. doi: 10.5056/jnm15138.

BACKGROUND/AIMS: The functional variant (rs56109847) in the 3'-untranslated regions (3'-UTR) of the serotonin receptor 3E (HTR3E) gene is associated with female diarrhea predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D) in British populations. However, the relationship of the polymorphism both to HTR3E...

Annu Rev Plant Physiol Plant Mol Biol. 1999 Jun;50:187-217. doi: 10.1146/annurev.arplant.50.1.187.

C4 plants, including maize, Flaveria, amaranth, sorghum, and an amphibious sedge Eleocharis vivipara, have been employed to elucidate the molecular mechanisms and signaling pathways that control C4 photosynthesis gene expression. Current evidence suggests that pre-existing genes were recruited for...

Genomic Med. 2007;1(1):29-33. doi: 10.1007/s11568-006-9000-3. Epub 2007 Jan 30.

The 3' untranslated regions (3' UTRs) of human protein-coding genes play a pivotal role in the regulation of mRNA 3' end formation, stability/degradation, nuclear export, subcellular localisation and translation, and hence are particularly rich in cis-acting regulatory elements. One...
