Replisome genes regulation by antitumor miR-101-5p in clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Analysis of microRNA (miRNA) regulatory networks is useful for exploring novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets in cancer cells. The Cancer Genome Atlas dataset shows that low expression of both strands of pre-miR-101 (miR-101-5p and miR-101-3p) significantly predicted poor prognosis in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). The functional significance of miR-101-5p in cancer cells is poorly understood. Here, we focused on miR-101-5p to investigate the antitumor function and its regulatory networks in ccRCC cells. Ectopic expression of mature miRNAs or siRNAs was investigated in cancer cell lines to characterize cell function, ie, proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and invasion. Genome-wide gene expression and in silico database analyses were undertaken to predict miRNA regulatory ne
