- Abstract
- MicroRNAs (miRNAs) of the miR-17-92 cluster are overexpressed in human cancers, and their enforced expression is tumorigenic in mouse models. A number of genes are reported to be targets of these miRNAs and are implicated in their tumorigenic potential. However, the mode of action by miRNAs suggests that global analysis of their targets is required to understand their cellular roles. In this study, we globally analyzed AGO2-bound mRNAs and found that the miR-17-92 miRNAs coherently repress multiple targets involved in the destabilization of mRNA. While the miRNAs repress the expression of their targets, they increase stability and lengthen the poly A tails of non-target mRNAs. Furthermore, the expression of BTG3, TOB1, CSNKIAI and ANKRD52 is negatively correlated with the expression of the miR-17-92 cluster in cancer cell lines. Our results suggest that the miR-17-92 miRNAs promote tumorigenesis not only by repression of key regulators, but also by posttranscriptional increases of global gene expression.
