Epigenetics of the Epigenetics : Hypermethylation of microRNA let-7a-3 gene represses the primary and mature let-7a with an inverse correlation to IGF-II mRNA in HCV-induced hepatocellular carcinoma / Amr Adel Waly ; Supervised Ahmed Ihab Abdelaziz , Hand Mohamed Eltayebi

By: Contributor(s): Material type: TextTextLanguage: English Publication details: Cairo : Amr Adel Waly , 2013Description: 107 Leaves : charts , facsimiles ; 30cmSubject(s): Online resources: Dissertation note: Thesis (M.Sc.) - Cairo University - Garman University - Faculty of Postgraduate Studies and Scientific Research- Department of Molecular Pharmacology Summary: Ongoing research has been focusing on the impact of the interplay between epigenetic mechanisms on malignant transformation. This work investigated the crosstalk between two of the epigenetic mechanisms: DNA methylation and microRNAs, in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). MicroRNA let-7a is a member of the arechetypal let-7a miRNA gene family. Owing to its know tumor suppressor activity, aberrant expression of microRNA let-7a was found to deregulate ~200 gene involved in cell proliferation, differentiation and adhesion.
