A functional screen identifies miR-34a as a candidate neuroblastoma tumor suppressor gene.
MicroRNAs are small noncoding RNAs that have critical roles in regulating a number of cellular functions through transcriptional silencing. They have been implicated as oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes (oncomirs) in several human neoplasms. We used an integrated genomics and functional screening strategy to identify potential oncomirs in the pediatric neoplasm neuroblastoma. We first identi...
متن کاملA candidate tumor suppressor gene, H37, from the human lung cancer tumor suppressor locus 3p21.3.
Frequent allelic loss and homozygous deletions within chromosome 3p in human lung cancers have suggested that the 3p21.3 (370-kb) region contains a critical tumor suppressor gene(s) (TSG). With the exact identity/characteristics of such a gene(s) still unconfirmed, a lack of inactivating structural mutations in the expressed genes contained within this region may indicate that the 3p TSG(s) do ...
متن کاملANX7, a candidate tumor suppressor gene for prostate cancer.
The ANX7 gene is located on human chromosome 10q21, a site long hypothesized to harbor a tumor suppressor gene(s) (TSG) associated with prostate and other cancers. To test whether ANX7 might be a candidate TSG, we examined the ANX7-dependent suppression of human tumor cell growth, stage-specific ANX7 expression in 301 prostate specimens on a prostate tissue microarray, and loss of heterozygosit...
متن کاملA candidate tumor suppressor gene in human breast cancers.
We have isolated a candidate gene (designated Brush-1) located at 13q12-q13, proximal to the retinoblastoma gene (RB1). Brush-1 codes for a 4.7-kilobase mRNA expressed at high levels in normal breast epithelium but drastically reduced in 6 of 13 breast cancer cell lines. RB1 mRNA expression is at normal levels for 5 of these 6 lines suggesting a greater importance of Brush-1 for breast cancer. ...
متن کاملCancer-Related Reprogramming of Human by Tumor Suppressor Gene
Due to their pluripotent qualities, human impelled pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have awesome potential for restorative application and for the investigation of degenerative diseases. These cells are produced from typical substantial cells, multipotent undifferentiated cells, or cancer cells. They express embryonic immature microorganism markers, for example, OCT4, SOX2, NANOG, SSEA-3, SSEA-4 ...
