Background Emerging evidence indicates that Circular RNAs (circRNAs) exert post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. A subclass of circRNA was found enriched with miRNA target sites. This evidence suggests that this kind of circRNA functions as

miR-34a regulates phenotypic modulation of vascular smooth muscle cells in intracranial aneurysm by targeting CXCR3 and MMP-2 [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) dysregulation is tightly related to diseases including tumor, neuro disease and cardiovascular disease. In this study, we investigated the potential biological effects of miR-34a and its target CXCR3 in phenotypic modulation of ...

Advances on the roles of circular RNA in breast cancer [PDF]
Circular RNA (circRNA) is a kind of non-coding RNA with circular structure and is found in a variety of cell types. CircRNA is characterized by diversity, specificity, conservatism and stability.

Role of competitive endogenous RNA networks in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease [PDF]
The present study aimed to construct a network of competitive endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) related to the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD), to provide a novel rationale for CAD treatment.Bioinformatics methods were applied to screen for differentially expressed long non-coding RNAs (DElncRNAs), microRNAs (DEmiRNAs), and mRNAs (DEmRNAs) from ...

Integrated Analysis of ceRNA Network to Reveal Potential Prognostic Biomarkers for Glioblastoma
Glioblastoma (GBM), originating in the brain, is a universally aggressive malignant tumor with a particularly poor prognosis. Therefore, insight into the critical role of underlying genetic mechanisms is essential to developing new therapeutic approaches.

Comprehensive analysis of competitive endogenous RNA network in colorectal cancer [PDF]
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Growing evidence supports a role for noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) in CRC. In particular, they form competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) networks involved in the regulation of mRNA expression.

Identification of competitive endogenous RNAs network in breast cancer [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundMiRNAs can regulate gene expression directly or indirectly, and long noncoding RNAs as competing endogenous RNA (ceRNAs) can bind to miRNAs competitively and affect mRNA expression. The ceRNA network is still unclear in breast cancer.

Pseudogenes Provide Evolutionary Evidence for the Competitive Endogenous RNA Hypothesis [PDF]
The competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) hypothesis is an attractively simple model to explain the biological role of many putatively functionless noncoding RNAs. Under this model, there exist transcripts in the cell whose role is to titrate out microRNAs such that the expression level of another target sequence is altered.
