MiR-25 regulates apoptosis by targeting Bim in human ovarian cancer

Abstract: Abstract. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are emerging as a class of small regulatory RNAs whose alterations are implicated in the initiation and progression of human cancers. Our study showed that miR-25 was highly expressed both in clinical ovarian cancer samples and cell lines. Down-regulation of miR-25 in ovarian cancer cells induced apoptosis whereas overexpression of miR-25 enhanced cell proliferation. The effects of miR-25 abrogation were partly mediated by the intrinsic apoptosis pathway. Many pro-apoptotic protein… Show more

“…MiR-25 is a member of the miR-106b~25 cluster, which includes miR-106b, miR-93 and miR-25, that is located within intron 13 of the minichromosome maintenance protein 7 (MCM7) gene on chromosome 7q22.1 [14]. Previous studies have shown that the expression of miR-25 was up-regulated significantly in human stomach cancer, ovarian cancer, and prostate cancer [16-18]. In the study by Kim BH et al, miR-25 was found to be up-regulated in human gastric carcinoma tissues when compared to adjacent non-neoplastic tissues.…”

“…The effects of miR-25 abrogation were partly mediated by the intrinsic apoptosis pathway. Many pro-apoptotic proteins such as Bim, Bax and caspase-3 were up-regulated after transfection [18]. However, investigators also found that expression of miR-25 was down-regulated in other cancer.…”

“…Consistently, miR-25 promotes cell aggressiveness through down-regulation of desmpcollin-2 and subsequently redistributing adheren junctions and activating β-Catenin signaling in ESCC [188]. In addition, miR-25 has also been found to be highly expressed in ovarian cancer and regulates apoptosis through targeting pro-apoptotic Bim [189]. Additionally, miR-25 promotes apoptosis resistance through targeting TNF-related apoptosis inducing ligand (TRAIL) death receptor-4 in cholangiocarcinoma [190].…”

“…miR-15a forms a cluster with miR-16 at the chromosomal region 13q14, and functions as a putative tumor suppressor by targeting the oncogene BCL2 (38,39). miR-25 regulates apoptosis by targeting Bim in human ovarian cancer (40) and miR-195 is regarded as a predictor of poor prognosis in adrenocortical cancer (41). Future studies of these miRNAs may better describe the regulatory mechanisms underlying LSCC.…”
