MicroRNAs and Uses Thereof |
摘要 |
Provided herein are methods for inhibiting expression of DOHH in a cell, and for inhibiting hypusination of eIF5A in a cell, the methods comprising contacting a cell with a miRNA or a nucleic acid molecule encoding the miRNA, wherein the miRNA binds to the 3′UTR of the DOHH mRNA and wherein binding results in a reduction in DOHH expression. Also provided are methods for reducing cellular proliferation and for treating diseases associated with abnormal cellular proliferation. |

1. A method of inhibiting expression of deoxyhypusine hydroxylase monooxygenase (DOHH) in a cell, comprising contacting the cell with a miRNA or a nucleic acid molecule encoding the miRNA, wherein the miRNA binds to the 3′UTR of the DOHH mRNA and wherein binding results in a reduction in DOHH expression. |
