MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small 19- to 24-nt noncoding RNAs that have the capacity regulate fundamental biological processes essential for cancer initiation and progression. In cancer, miRNAs may function as oncogenes or tumor suppressors. Here, we conducted global profiling in a cohort of stage 1 nonsmall cell lung cancers ( n = 81) determined miR-486 was most down-regulated miRNA tumors compared with adjacent uninvolved tissues, suggesting loss be important development. We report directly...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are increasingly implicated in regulating cancer initiation and progression. In this study, two miRNAs, miR-25 -32, identified as p53-repressed miRNAs by p53-dependent negative regulation of their transcriptional regulators, E2F1 MYC. However, -32 result p53 accumulation directly targeting Mdm2 TSC1, which regulators the mTOR (mammalian target rapamycin) pathway, respectively, leading to inhibition cellular proliferation through cell cycle arrest. Thus, there is a...

Tumor genotyping is not routinely performed in localized non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) due to lack of associations mutations with outcome. Here, we analyze 232 consecutive patients NSCLC and demonstrate that KEAP1 NFE2L2 are predictive high rates local recurrence (LR) after radiotherapy but surgery. Half LRs occurred tumors KEAP1/NFE2L2 mutations, indicating they major molecular drivers clinical radioresistance. Next, functionally evaluate our cohort only pathogenic associated...

Lung cancer is the leading cause of mortality in world today. Although some advances lung therapy have been made, patient survival still poor. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) can act as oncogenes or tumor-suppressor genes human malignancy. The miR-34 family consists tumor-suppressive miRNAs, and its reduced expression has reported various cancers, including non-small cell (NSCLC). In this study, we found that miR-34a miR-34c target platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha beta (PDGFR-α PDGFR-β),...

Nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the leading causes death worldwide. TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) has been shown to induce apoptosis in malignant cells without inducing significant toxicity normal cells. However, several carcinomas, including cancer, remain resistant TRAIL. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs ∼ 24 nt that block mRNA translation and/or negatively regulate its stability. They often aberrantly expressed and have implicated increasing...

Significance TRAIL (TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand) is a promising antitumor agent effective in very small subset of lung cancer patients with low toxicity. However, the majority tumors are TRAIL-resistant and little known about how tumor cells acquire resistance to TRAIL. Here, we show that continuous exposure subtoxic concentrations induces NF-κB–dependent up-regulation miR-21, miR-30c, miR-100, which by silencing caspase-8, caspase-3, TRAF7, FoxO3a further strengthens NF-κB...

Abstract Oncogenic KRAS induces tumor onset and development by modulating gene expression via different molecular mechanisms. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that have been established as main players in tumorigenesis. By overexpressing wild type or mutant (KRAS G12D ) using inducible human mouse cell lines, we analyzed KRAS-regulated microRNAs non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We show miR-30c miR-21 significantly upregulated both isoforms induce drug resistance enhance...
