Abstract Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the leading cause of cancer death worldwide; nevertheless, current therapeutic options are limited or ineffective for many patients. Therefore, elucidation of molecular mechanisms in HCC biology could yield important insights for the intervention of novel therapies. Recently, various studies have reported dysregulation of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in the initiation and progression of HCC, including H19; however, the biological function of H19 in HCC remains unclear. Here, we show that knockdown of H19 disrupted HCC cell growth, impaired the G1-to-S phase transition, and promoted apoptosis, while overexpression of H19 yielded the… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignancies in the world, with a high incidence and a high mortality. However, the pathogenesis of CRC carcinogenesis is still unexplored. In this study, we investigated the role of miR-107 in the regulation of CRC cell proliferation and apoptosis. First, the expression of miR-107 was observed to be aberrantly increased in human CRC tumor tissues and cell lines when compared to the colonic control tissues and colon epithelial cells. Further study showed that the proliferative and apoptotic capacities of human CRC SW480 and LoVo cells were… More >

Abstract Osteosarcoma is the most common primary bone malignancy manifested predominantly in children and young adults. Studies indicate that miR-107 is involved in the pathogenesis of osteosarcoma and that tropomyosin 1 (TPM1) acts as a tumor suppressor in many types of cancer. In this study, we analyzed the effect of miR-107 on human osteosarcoma cells and investigated the mechanism in which TPM1 is involved. miR-107 expression in human osteosarcoma tissues and cells was analyzed in quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Human osteosarcoma (U2OS) cells were transfected with miR-107 mimic, inhibitor, or scramble controls to evaluate the effect… More >
