2024年诺贝尔生理学或医学奖授予美国科学家维克多·安布罗斯（Victor Ambros）和加里·鲁夫昆（Gary Ruvkun）,以表彰他们发现微RNA（microRNA,miRNA）及其在转录后对基因表达的调控作用。miRNA的发现,不仅开启了非编码RNA（non-coding RNA,ncRNA）这一新的研究领域,也修改了生命科学领域经典的“中心法则”,即遗传信息沿着“DNA转录成mRNA,再翻译成蛋白质,最后发挥生物学功能”这一线性的传递模式,细胞内mRNA与其他ncRNA,如长链非编码RNA（long non-coding RNA,lncRNA）、环状RNA（circular RNA,circRNA）等由于竞争性结合miRNAs,从而形成了一个庞大而复杂的基因表达调控网络,即竞争性内源RNA（competing endogenous RNA,ceRNA）调控网络。同时miRNA本身也是由基因组上的基因编码,自身的表达也受其他编码或ncRNA的调控,miRNA与mRNA及其他ncRNA共同精细地调控了细胞的生命活动,并影响着机体的生理或病理功能,miRNA的表达失调与很多疾病的发生发展有着密切的联系,也为疾病诊疗提供了新的分子标记和靶点。本文总结了miRNA的发现过程、发生机制和生物学功能及miRNA与其他ncRNA之间的作用网络,并展望了miRNA的应用前景。 相似文献

环状RNA（circRNA）广泛存在于各种生物细胞中,具有结构稳定、丰度高和组织特异性表达等特征。最近的研究表明,一些circRNA作为竞争性内源NRNA（ceRNA）来发挥基因表达调控的作用。circRNA利用其microRNA（miRNA）应答元件结合miRNA,以阻断miRNA对其靶标表达的抑制作用,从而调控其他相关RNA的表达水平。circRNA在基因表达调控中重要作用的发现不仅丰富了人们对ceRNAiN控网络的认识,而且提示circRNA在药物开发和疾病诊治中具有良好的应用前景。 相似文献

microRNA(miRNA)是一类细胞内源性的小片段非编码RNA家族,通过与靶基因3′非翻译区(3′untranslated region,3′UTR)结合,对基因表达进行转录后水平的负性调控,参与多种生理和病理学过程。对细胞内成熟体miRNA的功能抑制机制之一是抑制物与miRNA互补结合,从而阻止其与靶基因的结合。这类抑制物主要包括细胞内天然存在的竞争性内源RNA(competing endogenous RNA,ce RNA),以及人工合成或载体表达的外源性miRNA吸附物。本文分别对这两种机制的作用方式进行综述,并对二者的相似点和不同点进行总结。 相似文献

As a novel kind of non‐coding RNA, circular RNAs (circRNAs) were involved in various biological processes. However, the role of circRNAs in the developmental process of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is still unclear. In the present study, by using a cell model of COPD in primary human small airway epithelial cells (HSAECs) treated with or without cigarette smoke extract (CSE), we uncovered 4,379 previously unknown circRNAs in human cells and 903 smoke‐specific circRNAs, with the help of RNA‐sequencing and bioinformatic analysis. Moreover, 3,872 up‐ and 4,425 down‐regulated mRNAs were also identified under CSE stimulation. Furthermore, a putative circRNA‐microRNA‐mRNA network was constructed for in‐depth mechanism exploration, which indicated that differentially expressed circRNAs could influence expression of some key genes that participate in response to pentose phosphate pathway, ATP‐binding cassette (ABC) transporters, glycosaminoglycan biosynthesis pathway and cancer‐related pathways. Our research indicated that cigarette smoke had an influence on the biogenesis of circRNAs and mRNAs. CircRNAs might be involved in the response to CSE in COPD through the circRNA‐mediated ceRNA networks. 相似文献

Pre‐eclampsia (PE) is a worldwide pregnancy‐related disorder. It is mainly characterized by defect migration and invasion of trophoblast cells. Recently, circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been believed to play a vital role in PE. The expression patterns and the biological functions of circRNAs in PE remain elusive. Here, we performed a circRNA microarray to identify putative PE‐related circRNAs. Bioinformatics analyses were used to screen the circRNAs which have potential relationships with pre‐eclampsia, and we identified a novel circRNA (circVRK1) that was up‐regulated in PE placenta tissues. By using HTR‐8/SVneo cells, circVRK1 knockdown significantly enhanced cell migration and invasion abilities, as well as epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT). Mechanistically, we found that circVRK1 and PTEN could function as the ceRNAs to miR‐221‐3p. Overexpression of miR‐221‐3p promoted cell migration, invasion and EMT via regulating PTEN. The cotransfection of miR‐221‐3p inhibitor or PTEN reversed the effect from circVRK1 knockdown. Moreover, the circVRK1/miR‐221‐3p/PTEN axis greatly regulated Akt phosphorylation. In general, circVRK1 suppresses trophoblast cell migration, invasion and EMT, by acting as a ceRNA to miR‐221‐3p to regulate PTEN, and further inhibit PI3K/Akt activation. The purpose of this paper is to open wide insights to investigate the onset of PE and provide new potential therapeutic targets in PE. 相似文献

Competing long noncoding RNA 2 (lncRNA 2) for microRNA let-7b (CERNA2) has emerged as an important regulator of tumorigenesis and cancer progression but the clinical value and regulatory function of CERNA2 is yet to be investigated in cervical carcinoma. In our study, we found the CERNA2 expression was obviously increased in cervical carcinoma tissues compared with adjacent normal cervical tissues. In addition, we observed that metastatic lymph nodes exhibited high levels of CERNA2 expression in contrast to primary cervical carcinoma tissues. Furthermore, high CERNA2 expression was associated with advanced clinical stage, lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis poor histological grade, and short overall survival in cervical carcinoma patients. Moreover, high CERNA2 expression acted as an independent unfavorable predictor for overall survival in cervical carcinoma patients. The cell migration and invasion assays in vitro suggested that knockdown of CERNA2 remarkably inhibited cell migration and invasion in cervical carcinoma. In conclusion, CERNA2 functions as an oncogenic lncRNA and may be as a potential therapeutic target in cervical carcinoma. 相似文献

Growing evidence has revealed that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have an important impact on tumorigenesis and tumor progression via a mechanism involving competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs). However, their use in predicting the survival of a patient with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains unclear. The aim of this study was to develop a novel lncRNA expression–based risk score system to accurately predict the survival of patients with HCC. In our study, using expression profiles downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas database, the differentially expressed messenger RNAs (mRNAs), lncRNAs, and microRNAs (miRNAs) were explored in patients with HCC and normal liver tissues, and then a ceRNA network constructed. A risk score system was established between lncRNA expression of the ceRNA network and overall survival (OS) or recurrence-free survival (RFS); it was further analyzed for associations with the clinical features of patients with HCC. In HCC, 473 differentially expressed lncRNAs, 63 differentially expressed miRNAs, and 1417 differentially expressed mRNAs were detected. The ceRNA network comprised 41 lncRNA nodes, 12 miRNA nodes, 24 mRNA nodes, and 172 edges. The lncRNA expression–based risk score system for OS was constructed based on six lncRNAs (MYLK-AS1, AL359878.1, PART1, TSPEAR-AS1, C10orf91, and LINC00501), while the risk score system for RFS was based on four lncRNAs (WARS2-IT1, AL359878.1, AL357060.1, and PART1). Univariate and multivariate Cox analyses showed the risk score systems for OS or RFS were significant independent factors adjusted for clinical factors. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed the area under the curve for the risk score system was 0.704 for OS, and 0.71 for RFS. Our result revealed a lncRNA expression–based risk score system for OS or RFS can effectively predict the survival of patients with HCC and aid in good clinical decision-making. 相似文献

The present study aimed to investigate the long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) and messenger RNAs (mRNAs) involved in the progression of gallbladder cancer and explore the potential physiopathologic mechanisms of gallbladder cancer in terms of competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs). The original lncRNA and mRNA expression profile data (nine gallbladder cancer tissues samples and nine normal gallbladder samples) in GSE76633 was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. Differentially expressed mRNAs and lncRNAs between gallbladder cancer tissue and normal control were selected and the pathways in which they are involved were analyzed using bioinformatics analyses. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) were also predicted based on the differentially expressed mRNAs. Finally, the co-expression relation between lncRNA and mRNA was analyzed and the ceRNA network was constructed by combining the lncRNA-miRNA, miRNA-mRNA, and lncRNA-mRNA pairs. Overall, 373 significantly differentially expressed mRNAs and 47 lncRNAs were identified between cancer and normal tissue samples. The upregulated genes were significantly enriched in the extracellular matrix (ECM)-receptor interaction pathway, while the downregulated genes were involved in the complement and coagulation cascades. Altogether, 128 co-expression relations between lncRNA and mRNA were obtained. In addition, 196 miRNA-mRNA regulatory relations and 145 miRNA-lncRNA relation pairs were predicted. Finally, the lncRNA-miRNA-gene ceRNA network was constructed by combining the three types of relation pairs, such as XLOC_011309-miR-548c-3p-SPOCK1 and XLOC_012588-miR-765-CEACAM6. mRNAs and lncRNAs may be involved in gallbladder cancer progression via ECM-receptor interaction pathways and the complement and coagulation cascades. Moreover, ceRNAs such as XLOC_011309-miR-548c-3p-SPOCK1 and XLOC_012588-miR-765-CEACAM6 can also be implicated in the pathogenesis of gallbladder cancer. 相似文献
