In plants, they have been extensively used to silence cellular transcripts in gene function analyses and to target invading RNA viruses to induce resistance. Current artificial sRNA-based antiviral resistance in plants is mainly limited to a single virus, and is jeopardized by the emergence of mutations in the artificial sRNA target site or by the presence of co-infecting viruses. Hence, there is a need to further develop the artificial sRNA approach to generate more broad and durable antiviral resistance in plants. A recently developed toolbox allows for the time and cost-effective large-scale production of artificial sRNA constructs in plants. The toolbox includes the P-SAMS web tool for the automated design of artificial sRNAs, and a new generation of artificial microRNA and synthetic trans-acting small interfering RNA (syn-tasiRNA) vectors for direct cloning and high expression of artificial sRNAs. Here we describe how the simplicity and high-throughput capability of these new technologies should accelerate the study of artificial sRNA-based antiviral resistance in plants. In particular, we discuss the potential of the syn-tasiRNA approach as a promising strategy for developing more effective, durable and broad antiviral resistance in plants.","PeriodicalId":90965,"journal":{"name":"RNA & disease (Houston, Tex.)","volume":"3 1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66656927","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ramos","doi":"10.14800/rd.1123","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.14800/rd.1123","url":null,"abstract":"Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the most common liver cancer, is an important leading cause of death worldwide. Neddylation is a post-translational modification involved in several processes such as cell growth, viability and development. Importantly, the neddylation pathway is upregulated in liver cancer and specifically enriched in patients with poor prognosis. Hu antigen R (HuR), is a RNA-binding protein that stabilizes target mRNAs involved in hepatocyte proliferation, differentiation and malignant transformation. And notably, HuR levels are highly representative in liver and colon cancer. A ground-breaking knowledge about HCC has been to identify that neddylation plays a role in HCC by regulating the liver oncogenic driver HuR. In addition, the neddylation inhibitor MLN4924 has shown antitumoral effects in vitro and in vivo in liver cancer, partly through HuR destabilization. Importantly, high levels of HuR made hepatoma cells more resistant to neddylation inhibition while low levels of HuR sensitized cells to the treatment, suggesting that the levels of HuR determine the druggability of the neddylation pathway in HCC. Overall, our findings highlight the impact that neddylation plays in liver cancer and open a completely new area of research, paving the way for novel therapeutical approaches.","PeriodicalId":90965,"journal":{"name":"RNA & disease (Houston, Tex.)","volume":"3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66656885","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through gene regulation, several miRNAs have been found to play a significant role in various diseases. Each miRNA has multiple targets and is able to have a potent, albeit complex, effect on the cells. Specifically, miRNA-15a has been found to significantly reduce cancer cell survival and aggressiveness through multiple mechanisms across several cancer types. Our research found that miRNA-15a was able to decrease melanoma cell viability in-vitro and in-vivo. We have also found that miRNA-15a caused cell cycle arrest at the G<sub>0</sub>/G<sub>1</sub> phase. Moreover, miRNA-15a was found to decrease the invasiveness of melanoma cells. CDCA4 was also discovered as a novel <i>bona-fide</i> target of miRNA-15a. The following oncogenic mRNAs are verified targets of miRNA-15a: CDCA4, BCL2L2, YAP1, AKT-3, Cyclin E1, and γ-Synuclein. In the future we hope to better understand which miRNAs will be effective in different transcriptome and genome environments. Efforts such as the NIH Center for Cancer Genomics' 'The Cancer Genome Atlas,' 'Cancer Target and Driver Discovery Network,' and the 'Human Cancer Models Initiatives' among others, will help us characterize the specific tumor environments in which different miRNAs are able to reduce cancer proliferation and aggression. This information will be enhanced by improving the delivery of miRNA by inducing its expression in-situ with dCas9 conjugated to activation domains.</p>","PeriodicalId":90965,"journal":{"name":"RNA & disease (Houston, Tex.)","volume":"3 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5341608/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"34805643","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}
