miR-191: an emerging player in disease biology
Specific microRNAs have emerged as key players in disease biology by playing crucial role in disease development and progression. This review draws attention to one such microRNA, miR-191 that has been recently reported to be abnormally expressed in several cancers (>20) and various other diseases like diabetes-type 2, Crohn' s, pulmonary hypertension, and Alzheimer' s. It regulates important c...
متن کاملP 118: Osteopontin: An Early Player in Neuroinflammation Disease
Osteopontin also known as bone sialoprotein (BSP). Osteopontin role as a linking protein. it is an extracellular structural protein and therefore an organic component of bone. Osteoprontin (OPN) binds to several integrin receptors containing α4β1, α9β1, and α9β4 expressed by leukocytes. These receptors have been well-stable to function in cell adhesion, migratio...
متن کاملEpigenetics: an emerging player in health and disease.
THE DECODING of the human genome in 2003 provided enormous opportunities to gain a greater understanding of the genetic intricacies underlying biological systems in both health and disease. Along with variations in the linear sequence of the genome that may predispose to certain pathologies, there is increasing evidence that epigenetic factors can profoundly influence gene expression and, in tu...
متن کاملMicroRNAs: an emerging player in autophagy.
Autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved self-digestion process for the quality control of intracellular entities in eukaryotes. In the past few years, mounting evidence indicates that microRNAs (miRNAs)-mediated post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression represents an integral part of the autophagy regulatory network and may have a substantial effect on autophagy-related physiological ...
متن کاملEpigenetics: an emerging player in gastric cancer.
Cancers, like other diseases, arise from gene mutations and/or altered gene expression, which eventually cause dysregulation of numerous proteins and noncoding RNAs. Changes in gene expression, i.e., upregulation of oncogenes and/or downregulation of tumor suppressor genes, can be generated not only by genetic and environmental factors but also by epigenetic factors, which are inheritable but n...
