Idea Proposed/Formulated by: Dr L Boominathan Ph.D.
Citation: Boominathan, MiRNA-based therapy for Cancer: MiRNA-146 inhibits proliferation and promotes senescence through up regulation of tumor suppressor LKB1, 28/October/2014, 07.41 am, Genome-2-Bio-Medicine Discovery center (GBMD), http://genomediscovery.org
Significance: This study suggests that tumor suppressor MiRNA-146, by decreasing the expression of its target gene, it may increase the expression of tumor suppressor LKB1. Thus, pharmacological formulations encompassing “MiRNA-146 or its activators“ may be used to treat LKB1-mutated human tumors.
Undisclosed information: A mechanistic insight into how MiRNA-146 increases the expression of LKB1.
