A number of genes have been implicated in regeneration, but the regulation of these genes, particularly pertaining to regeneration in higher vertebrates, remains an interesting and mostly open question. We have studied microRNA (miRNA) regulation of regeneration and found that an intact miRNA pathway is essential for caudal fin regeneration in zebrafish. We also showed that miR-203 directly tar...

In many mouse models of skin cancer, only a few tumors typically form even though many cells competent for tumorigenesis receive the same oncogenic stimuli. These observations suggest an active selection process for tumor-initiating cells. Here, we use quantitative mRNA- and miR-Seq to determine the impact of Hras(G12V) on the transcriptome of keratinocytes. We discover that microRNA-203 is dow...

BACKGROUND MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been proved involved in many tumorigenic behaviors including tumor growth. But, the clinical significance and functions of miRNA-203 in gastric cancer (GC) remain elusive. RESULTS Decreased expression of miRNA-203 was correlated with tumor size, poor prognosis and recurrence in GC patients. Overexpression of miR-203 or knockdown of its target progesterone im...

MicroRNAs have emerged as crucial regulators of tumorigenesis. However, the mechanism by which miR‑203 is involved in the pathogenesis of pancreatic cancer (PC) remains elusive. In the present study, PC cell lines were used as an experimental model to investigate the expression and functional role of miR‑203 in PC. miR‑203 mimic virus, miRNA negative control virus and Survivin shRNA virus were ...

Glioma is the most common malignant and fatal primary tumor in the central nervous system in adults. Recent data has suggested a profound role for microRNAs (miRs) in cancer progression. The present study demonstrated, via quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) analysis, that miR-203 expression was markedly lower in highly invasive U87MG glioma cells and glioma tissues. Wound healing and...
