Noble Laureate Prof. Phil Sharp (from MIT, Cambridge, USA) has published a paper in the Journal Genes & Development stating that Let-7 represses Nr6a1 and a mid-gestation developmental program in adult cells. This study suggests that “let-7 is required for the continual suppression of embryonic gene expression in adult cells.“ In connection with this finding, Dr L Boominathan, Director-cum-chief scientist of GBMD, reports that: Insights into the regulation of a mid-gestation developmental program: 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 suppresses Nr6a1 and embryonic gene expression programs in adult cells. This study may through light into the tumor suppressive action of 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3.
