Journal ArticleDOI

MicroRNA gene expression deregulation in human breast cancer.

TL;DR: It is shown that, compared with normal breast tissue, miRNAs are also aberrantly expressed in human breast cancer, and the overall miRNA expression could clearly separate normal versus cancer tissues, with the most significantly deregulated mi RNAs being mir-125b, mir-145, mir -21, and mir-155.
Journal ArticleDOI

miR-15 and miR-16 induce apoptosis by targeting BCL2.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated thatmiR-15a and miR-16-1 expression is inversely correlated to Bcl2 expression in CLL and that both microRNAs negatively regulate BCL2 at a posttranscriptional level and are natural antisense B cl2 interactors that could be used for therapy of Bcl1-overexpressing tumors.
Journal ArticleDOI

MicroRNA dysregulation in cancer: diagnostics, monitoring and therapeutics. A comprehensive review

TL;DR: Current knowledge about the involvement of microRNAs in cancer, and their potential as diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic tools are reviewed.
