Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The expression levels of microRNA-143/145, microRNA-23b/27b, microRNA-451a/144-3p/144-5p, and microRNA-145-5p/3p were down-regulated in bladder cancer tissues compared to normal bladder tissues. These microRNAs target BIRC5, WNT7A, CCNE1, CCNE2, CDC25A, PKMYT1, CCNE1, CCNE2, and UHRF1. The passenger strand had been considered as having no function. However, we newly found that the passenger strand of specific microRNA actually function as strong tumor suppressors. From our experiments, we found new strategy for treatment of bladder cancer.
