Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a group of small non-coding RNAs and play an important role in controlling vital biological processes, including cell cycle control, apoptosis, metabolism, and development and differentiation, which lead to various diseases such as neurological, metabolic disorders, and cancer. Chemotherapy consider as gold treatment approaches for cancer patients. However, chemotherapeutic is one of the main challenges in cancer management. Doxorubicin (DOX) is an anti-cancer drug that interferes with the growth and spread of cancer cells. DOX is used to treat various types of cancer, including breast, nervous tissue, bladder, stomach, ovary, thyroid, lung, bone, muscle, joint and soft tissue cancers. Also recently, miRNAs have been identified as master regulators of specific genes responsible for the mechanisms that initiate chemical resistance. miRNAs have a regulatory effect on chemotherapy resistance through the regulation of apoptosis process. Also, the effect of miRNAs p53 gene as a key tumor suppressor was confirmed via studies. miRNAs can affect main biological pathways include PI3K pathway. This review aimed to present the current understanding of the mechanisms and effects of miRNAs on apoptosis, p53 and PTEN/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway related to DOX resistance.
Graphical Abstract
miRNAs involve in DOX resistance according to effecting pathways.
期刊介绍:
Functional & Integrative Genomics is devoted to large-scale studies of genomes and their functions, including systems analyses of biological processes. The journal will provide the research community an integrated platform where researchers can share, review and discuss their findings on important biological questions that will ultimately enable us to answer the fundamental question: How do genomes work?
