MiR-495-3p regulates cell migration and invasion in papillary thyroid carcinoma.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most prevalent histotype of thyroid cancer and the presence of BRAFV600E mutation in these tumors is related to the malignancy and prognosis of the disease. In recent years attention has been focused on the role of microRNAs in the biology of PTC cells, especially in their role in the modulation of pathways related to tumorigenesis. DLK1-DIO3-derived miRNAs have been shown to play important roles in tumor context and are globally downregulated in PTC.

Methods

Based on a previous in silico target prediction and gene enrichment analysis, we identified miR-495-3p as the candidate with the highest tumor suppressor potential role in PTC among DLK1-DIO3-derived miRNAs. We used bioinformatics and an in vitro model of miR-495-3p ov
