Regulation of MET-mediated proliferation of thyroid carcinoma cells by miR-449b

Abstract: Thyroid carcinoma (TC) is a lethal cancer worldwide, whereas its carcinogenesis is not fully understood. Although growing evidence has demonstrated that dysregulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) contributes to the development of various cancers, the role of miRNAs in the pathogenesis of TC is poorly characterized. Here, we analyzed the levels of miR-449b in TC tissues and detected significantly lower miR-449b levels in TC tissues. Moreover, the low miR-449b levels were associated with poor survival. We then overexpr… Show more

“…The interactions were further confirmed through RT-qPCR. miR-449b is an uncommonly investigated miRNA with its roles largely unrevealed except its inhibiting roles in several cancer types [38,39]. As partially coincident with our findings, miR-449b-5p has been documented to alleviate hepatocyte injury following liver ischemia and reperfusion via targeting HMGB1 [40], indicating its role in injury alleviation.…”

“…To the best of our knowledge there was no report showing adverse effects in the GLTP gene knock-in or -out animals. The GLTP expression was regulated by miR-449b, which is one of the isoforms of miR-449 and has its function related to cell cycle, differentiation and apoptosis 35 . Also important is the good safety of bicyclol in human at the dose used in the study.…”

“…This is just the opposite in the “CancerG” level where one PCG was influenced by several lncRNAs, suggesting key roles of those 42 cancer PCGs in THCA (42 PCGs are listed in Supplementary Table 4 ). For example, ENSG00000105976 (c-Met) is an oncogene protein with tyrosine kinase activity, and its abnormal activation has been detected in various cancers, including THCA [ 36 , 37 ]. Another example is that ENSG00000066468 (FGFR-2), which has been implicated in the onset of THCA, was reduced in THCA [ 38 , 39 ].…”
