The bioinformatic study has determined several signaling cascades associated with miR-146a-5p:Toll-like receptor pathway, NF-κB pathway, ErB pathway, and measles signaling pathway. The 38 target genes have been shown for miR-146a-5p of which NRAS gene is known asone of the most frequent mutated in melanoma.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Elucidation of the role of miR-146-a-5p in complex interactions between the tumor and the cells of healthy adjacent skin is necessary for our understanding of the mechanisms oftumor progression. Significant differences found between cancer cells and adjacent tissues in microRNA expression profile corresponding to divergent mRNA/protein levels in these structures should be taken into account when tumor samples characterization estimatedby high-throughput methods.</p>","PeriodicalId":9014,"journal":{"name":"BMC Dermatology","volume":"19 1","pages":"1"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1186/s12895-018-0081-1","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"36835635","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
