GENETIC AND FUNCTIONAL DISSECTION OF THE MIR-17-92 CLUSTER OF MIRNAS
2011
Background: The miR-17∼92 cluster was among the first cluster of miRNAs to be linked to cancer. It is directly activated by the members of the MYC family of transcription factors and acts as a bona fide oncogene in several types of cancer, including lymphomas. miR-17∼92 is essential for mammalian development. Knockout mice die in utero or at birth with cardiovascular defects and impaired B-cell maturation. Aims: Although miR-17∼92 is important for tumorigenesis and development both the molecular mechanisms and the prominent miRNAs acting in different contexts are still unknown. The main aim of our study was to identify the role played by different members of the miR-17∼92 cluster in B-cell …
