Research Abstract

Although the microRNA (miRNA) miR-92 and its paralogues have been known to be associated with tumorigenesis, their physiological role and the signaling pathway in which they function remain to be delineated. In this study, we explored the relationship between the miR-92 family of miRNAs and the clock genes, using the nematode C. elegans and mammalian cultured cells.
We found several lines of evidence suggesting that C. elegans miR-92 orthologue, miR-235 and the clock gene Period2 ortholog lin-42 negatively regulate each other to determine the timing of differentiation in progenitor cells. On the other hand, miR-92 and one of its paralogues did not show oscillatory expression pattern in cultured rodent fibroblasts.
