Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We focused on miR-200s (miR-200a/miR-200b/miR-429 cluster and miR-200c/miR-141cluster). ZEB1/2 genes that are key molecules for EMT were repressed by miR-200s transfection. miR-138 targeted Vimentin which was under stream of ZEB1/2. Tumor suppressive miR-29s repressed LOXL2 and lead to instability of ECM. These microRNAs could be a biomarker of renal cell carcinoma.
