Cepred: predicting the co-expression patterns of the human intronic microRNAs with their host genes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
Identifying the tissues in which a microRNA is expressed could enhance the understanding of the functions, the biological processes, and the diseases associated with that microRNA.

MicroRNA biogenesis and cellular proliferation [PDF]

open access: yesTranslational Research, 2015
Given the fundamental roles of microRNAs (miRNAs) in physiological, developmental, and pathologic processes, we hypothesized that genes involved in miRNA biogenesis contribute to human complex traits. For 13 such genes, we evaluated the relationship between transcription and 2 classes of complex traits, namely cellular growth and sensitivity to various

MicroRNA biogenesis pathways in cancer [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Cancer, 2015
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are critical regulators of gene expression. Amplification and overexpression of individual 'oncomiRs' or genetic loss of tumour suppressor miRNAs are associated with human cancer and are sufficient to drive tumorigenesis in mouse models. Furthermore, global miRNA depletion caused by genetic and epigenetic alterations in components of

MicroRNAs as the cause of schizophrenia in 22q11.2 deletion carriers, and possible implications for idiopathic disease: a mini-review

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2013
The 22q11.2 deletion is the strongest known genetic risk factor for schizophrenia. Research has implicated microRNA-mediated dysregulation in 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS) schizophrenia risk.

Hormonal Regulation of MicroRNA Biogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cell, 2009
In this issue of Molecular Cell, Yamagata et al. (2009) provide insight into the complex posttranscriptional regulation of miRNA biogenesis by showing that the processing of a subset of miRNAs is inhibited by the estrogen receptor.

Deregulation mechanisms and therapeutic opportunities of p53-responsive microRNAs in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ
Here, we have discussed the molecular mechanisms of p53-responsive microRNAs dysregulation in response to genotoxic stress in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients. The role of micro ribonucleic acids (microRNAs) in p53-signaling cellular stress

MicroRNA-directed siRNA biogenesis in Caenorhabditis elegans. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2010
RNA interference (RNAi) is a post-transcriptional silencing process, triggered by double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), leading to the destabilization of homologous mRNAs. A distinction has been made between endogenous RNAi-related pathways and the exogenous RNAi

The miR-17 ∼ 92a cluster of microRNAs is required for the fitness of Foxp3+ regulatory T cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
By genetic inactivation of key microRNA biogenesis enzymes, we and others have previously demonstrated the critical requirement of the microRNA pathway for the differentiation and function of Foxp3(+) regulatory T cells.

Efficiency and specificity in microRNA biogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesNature Structural & Molecular Biology, 2012
Primary microRNA cleavage by the Drosha-Dgcr8 'Microprocessor' complex is critical for microRNA biogenesis. Yet, the Microprocessor may also cleave other nuclear RNAs in a nonspecific manner. We studied Microprocessor function using mathematical modeling and experiments in mouse and human tissues.
