MIR499A (MicroRNA 499a)

miR-499a-5p facilitates the development of uterine leiomyoma by activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. These findings suggest that miR-499a-5p may serve as a promising molecular biomarker and a potential therapeutic target for ULM management.

This study suggests that the specific expression of miRNA-1296-5p, miR-499a-5p, miR-374a-5p and miR-370-3p in the serum exosomes of LC, which has diagnostic potential. And the combination of miRNA-1296-5p, miR-499a-5p and miR-370-3p with CEA can further enhance this potential.

Reduced expression of the selected sncRNAs was confirmed in Lyo versus Myo, with miR-19a-3p, miR-3196, miR-30d-3p, piR-006426, and piR-020485 linked to MED12 status, while miR-499a-5p and miR-30d-3p were associated with race/ethnicity. These findings suggest that sncRNA dysregulation contributes to altered gene expression in Lyo, influenced by MED12 mutation and racial background.

The SOX gene family is closely implicated in the onset and progression of lung adenocarcinoma, of which most members may be used as prognostic marker genes for patients.

The levels of miR-499a-5p were markedly downregulated in GC and related to GC pathological features. It has the potential to become a biomarker for the diagnosis of GC.

In the xenograft model, LINC00294 overexpression inhibited tumor growth in vivo. LINC00294 exerted an antitumor function in CRC by forming a LINC00294/miR-499a-5p/LARP4B regulatory network.

In HCF-aa under RES, increased exosomal MALAT1 expression counteracts miR-499-5p's suppression of SOX6, suggesting that MALAT1-containing exsosomes derived from HCF-aa may offer a novel cell-free therapeutic approach for AF.

Thus, this miRNA signature addresses a crucial gap in understanding the molecular underpinnings of areca nut-induced carcinogenesis and offers a promising platform for clinical applications in risk assessment, diagnosis, and prognosis of areca nut-associated malignancies.

Taken together, the above miSNPs may contribute to the high incidence of OSCC in central India. However, further studies with large cohorts and ethnic stratification are required to validate our findings.

According to ROC analysis, miR-155-5p can differentiate among the patients' groups, while miR-574-3p, IL-1β, and STAT1 mRNA can discriminate between RHCV and control groups. In conclusion, RHCV patients have dysregulated expression of five transcripts compared to non-RHCV and control groups.

Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors have enormous therapeutic potential as effective epigenetic regulators, and now with the focus on the selective HDAC6 inhibitor in ongoing clinical trials, more advantages over other non-selective pan-HDAC inhibitors are foreseeable. As it is of paramount importance to understand the complex regulatory web of mutual interactions involving epigenetic machinery and non-coding genome in regulating gene expression, herein, we investigated the intriguing interactions between HDAC6-induced lncRNA (LINC00152) and its possible sponge miRNA (hsa-miR-499a-5p) in multiple myeloma.

The low expression of TMEM189 inhibited the development of breast cancer through the ferroptosis pathway. We have demonstrated for the first time that miR-499a-5p inhibits breast cancer progression by targeting the TMEM189-mediated ferroptosis pathway.
