چکیده مقاله:

Abstract        Background and Objective: Various cellular factors affect the process of HIV activity. One of these cellular factors are structures known as microRN that are expected to be involved in controlling HIV replication and infectivity. The expression of one or a set of them may represent the patient's clinical conditions. In this study,  the expression of miR-29a and miR-29b involved in regulating viral genes’ expression was evaluated in three HIV-positive groups and a healthy control group. Later,  the expression level of these microRNAs  was compared between the cases and controls.       Methods: Total RNA extraction was performed on the collected samples using RNx-plus kit and then the microRNA expression levels were evaluated using Relative Real-time PCR. The obtained data was entered into SPSS 22 and Graphpad softwares and analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis and Man-Whitney tests. P-value of less than 0.05 was considered as statistical significance level.      Results: The expression level of miR-29a  was reduced in patients under treatment and drug-resistant patients ( P ≤ 0.05)  . All three HIV-positive groups including people without drug treatment, patients under treatment and drug-resistant patients showed reduced miR-29b expression level compared to  control group (P ≤ 0.05).      Conclusion: the decreased expression of miR-29a and miR-29b in patients under treatment and drug-resistant patients indicates an  increased viral replication and reduced CD4 cell count. It may be possible to predict the progression of the disease by miRNA measurement or control viral replication using these mir-RNAs that requires further studies.         Keywords: HIV, expression, mir-29a, mir-29b.

Altered expression pattern of miR-29a, miR-29b and the target genes in myeloid leukemia

OBJECTIVES The miR-29 family have been demonstrated acting as vital tumor suppressor in multiple cancers as well as regulators in the adaptive immune system. Little is known about their role in leukemogenesis. The purpose of this study is to analyze the expression pattern of miR-29a/29b and its target genes Mcl-1 (myeloid cell leukemia sequence 1) and B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) in myeloid leukem...

Transcriptional suppression of mir-29b-1/mir-29a promoter by c-Myc, hedgehog, and NF-kappaB.

MicroRNAs regulate pathways contributing to oncogenesis, and thus the mechanisms causing dysregulation of microRNA expression in cancer are of significant interest. Mature mir-29b levels are decreased in malignant cells, and this alteration promotes the malignant phenotype, including apoptosis resistance. However, the mechanism responsible for mir-29b suppression is unknown. Here, we examined m...

Expression of miR-29b in Malignant Tumors

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of single-stranded small molecule RNA with about 22 nucleotides in length (Bartel, 2009). These short RNA molecules are able to bind to specifics sites typically present in the three prime untranslated region (3’-UTR) of their target genes and mediate either mRNA decay with perfect base pairing or translational blockade with imperfect base pairing (Pillai et al., ...

Expression Analysis of mir-21 and mir-221 in Cancerous Tissues from Iranian Patients with Gastric Cancer

Background: Early detection is a key to survival for gastric cancer. Molecular markers such as miRNA (microRNA) can have great importance in the early diagnosis of gastric cancer. Expression of miR-21 and miR-221 are deregulated in many types of human cancers. This study aimed to investigate the differences in miRNA expression patterns within the Iranian population. Methods: Total RNA was extra...
