| Name | microRNA 7109 |
| Description | microRNAs (miRNAs) are short (20-24 nt) non-coding RNAs that are involved in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression in multicellular organisms by affecting both the stability and translation of mRNAs. miRNAs are transcribed by RNA polymerase II as part of capped and polyadenylated primary transcripts (pri-miRNAs) that can be either protein-coding or non-coding. The primary transcript is cleaved by the Drosha ribonuclease III enzyme to produce an approximately 70-nt stem-loop precursor miRNA (pre-miRNA), which is further cleaved by the cytoplasmic Dicer ribonuclease to generate the mature miRNA and antisense miRNA star (miRNA*) products. The mature miRNA is incorporated into a RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), which recognizes target mRNAs through imperfect base pairing with the miRNA and most commonly results in translational inhibition or destabilization of the target mRNA. The RefSeq represents the predicted microRNA stem-loop. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009] |
| Summary |
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nMIR7109 functions as a key post‐transcriptional regulator in cancer immunity by directly targeting the mRNA of Siglec‐15, a molecule implicated in tumor immune suppression. In clear‐cell renal cell carcinoma, the long non‐coding RNA LINC00973 upregulates Siglec‐15 expression through a competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) mechanism that sequesters MIR7109, thereby alleviating its inhibitory effect on Siglec‐15. This regulatory interplay not only alters the cell surface abundance of Siglec‐15 but also modulates immune activation, as evidenced by its antagonistic impact on co‐cultured T cells. In summary, under normal conditions, MIR7109 acts to repress Siglec‐15 expression, and its sponging by LINC00973 contributes to immune evasion in the tumor microenvironment."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": ""}]}, {"type": "rg", "children": [{"type": "r", "ref": 1, "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "Yanbin Liu, Xingzhi Li, Changming Zhang, et al.
