MYCN inhibits TrkC-mediated differentiation in neuroblastoma cells via disruption of the PKA signalling pathway. (PubMed, Cell Death Discov)
Additionally, MYCN-induced miR-221 was found to suppress CREB expression. Together, these findings demonstrate MYCN-dependent effects of TrkC signalling and highlight the therapeutic potential of targeting the PKA pathway to induce differentiation in high-risk MYCN-amplified neuroblastoma.

The cooperative regulation of miR-221 by APE1 and AUF1 impacts p27Kip1 defining a miR signature relevant for cervical cancer. (PubMed, FEBS Open Bio)
Moreover, we identified a 13-miR signature, comprising miRs regulated by both APE1 and AUF1, that exhibits strong prognostic value in cervical cancer. These findings suggest a novel potential role of both APE1 and AUF1 as therapeutic targets in cervical cancer.

γ-Amino Carboxylic Acid Modification Enhances the Efficacy of Peptide Nucleic Acids Targeting miR-221-3p in Lung Cancer Cell Lines. (PubMed, Curr Issues Mol Biol)
The binding affinity of the modified PNAs to their targets and their ability to inhibit miR-221-3p expression were considerably higher than those of unmodified PNAs in Lung cancer cell lines, leading to effective regulation of downstream gene and protein expression. These findings underscore the potential of γ-modified PNAs as a platform for developing miRNA-targeted therapeutics.

Two-Pronged Specialist (TPS) probe: an ultra-sensitive enzyme-driven universal system for dual-microRNA detection. (PubMed, Biosens Bioelectron)
Using this probe to analyze miR-21 and miR-221 in lung cancer cells, we found that both miRNAs were significantly upregulated in lung cancer cell line A549 compared to human embryonic kidney cell line HEK-293T, and only miR-21 was upregulated in breast cancer cell line MCF-7. By optimizing experimental conditions, the optimal reaction conditions were determined as 1 nM S1/S2, 10 nM C1/C2, and 200 μM dNTPs for co-centration, 60 min for initial amplification, 6 h for T4 DNA polymerase, and 120 min for phi29 DNA polymerase.

TG221: An Experimental Model for Liver Cancer Prevention and Treatment Approaches. (PubMed, BioTech (Basel))
From a therapeutic point of view, miR-199a-3p replacement synergized with palbociclib and overcame sorafenib resistance. This review highlights the importance of the TG221 transgenic mouse as a powerful model for studying miRNA-driven hepatocarcinogenesis and enables preclinical evaluation of RNA-based chemopreventive and therapeutic approaches. Metformin, miRNA inhibition, miRNA replacement and miRNA-guided viral therapies emerge as promising approaches for advancing precision prevention and treatment strategies in HCC.

Prognostic Stratification of Highly Differentiated Thyroid Cancer Based on Molecular Genetic Studies. (PubMed, Asian Pac J Cancer Prev)
The practical significance of this work lies in the possibility of considering the identified genomic and epigenomic features when choosing surgical intervention and adjuvant therapy, thereby increasing the chances for long-term remission. Additionally, it emphasizes the standardization of analytical methods and the development of a unified system for evaluating the combined genetic alterations, which could enhance the quality of prognostic stratification and more effectively tailor treatment strategies.

miR-221/222 Facilitate Pituitary Adenoma Progression Via PHACTR4 Downregulation. (PubMed, Hum Mutat)
In vivo experiment of subcutaneous tumor formation in nude mice verified that miRNA-221/222 promoted tumor growth by targeting PHACTR4. In conclusion, miRNA-221/222 played the role of proto-oncogene in the occurrence and development of pituitary tumors by targeting PHACTR4, which provided a new target for the diagnosis and molecular treatment of pituitary adenomas.
