MicroRNAs are small noncoding RNAs that serve as posttranscriptional regulators of gene expression in higher eukaryotes. Their widespread and important role in animals is highlighted by recent estimates that 20%-30% of all genes are microRNA targets. Here, we report that a large set of genes involved in basic cellular processes avoid microRNA regulation due to short 3'UTRs that are specifically...

Melanoma is a very aggressive skin cancer with increasing incidence worldwide. MicroRNAs are small, noncoding RNAs that regulate gene expression of targeted gene(s). The hallmark of cancer model outlined by Hanahan and Weinberg offers a meaningful framework to consider the roles of microRNAs in melanoma development and progression. In this systematic review of the literature, we associate what ...

MicroRNAs are involved in carcinogenesis through postranscriptional gene regulatory activity. These molecules are involved in various physiological and pathological functions, such as apoptosis, cell proliferation and differentiation, which indicates their functionality in carcinogenesis as tumour suppressor genes or oncogenes. Several studies have determined the presence of microRNAs in differ...

Bladder malignancy is viewed as the fifth most basic disease with expanded disorder and demise. As of late, incessant examinations showed that microRNAs are arising indicative biomarkers for bladder malignancy. Explicit miRNA profiles have been distinguished a few examples from patients MicroRNAs noncoding RNA particles around 23 nucleotides assume significant parts in different strides during ...

micrornas (mirnas) are short rna molecules which bind to target mrnas, resulting in translational repression and gene silencing and are found in all eukaryotic cells. approximately 2200 mirna genes have been reported to exist in the mammalian genome, from which over 1000 belong to the human genome. many major cellular functions such as development, differentiation, growth, and metabolism are kn...
