VDR

downin silico1

1 study
  1. MIR124 inhibits VDR in silico (predicted by in silico 3' UTR target analysis).

    “miR-124-3p.1 and miR-124-3p.2 targets 3' UTR of VDR and SIRT1 genes”

    In silicopredicted by in silico 3' UTR target analysis

    A hypothesis: MiRNA-124 mediated regulation of sirtuin 1 and vitamin D receptor gene expression accelerates aging

Squamous cell carcinoma

downin human cells1

1 study
  1. MIR124 decreases squamous cell carcinoma in human cells (overexpression by miR-124 mimic transfection in A431 cells).

    “Forced overexpression of miR-124 as a result of the transfection of a miR-124 mimic in A431 resulted in the significant suppression of the proportion of cancer cells.”

1 study
  1. MIR124 induces cellular senescence in human cells (overexpression by miR-124 mimic transfection in normal human epidermal keratinocytes).

    “the number of NHEKs positive for senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) increased significantly as a result of the overexpression of the miR-124 mimic”
