MicroRNA 514b (MIR514B)

Target
MIR514B
Molecular classification
microRNA, Non-coding RNA, Regulatory RNA molecule
01

Overview

MicroRNA 514b is a non-coding, regulatory RNA molecule expressed as two functional strands (miR-514b-3p and miR-514b-5p) which perform distinct roles in cancer biology. MiR-514b-3p typically acts as a tumor suppressor, inhibiting cell invasion, metastasis, and drug resistance, while miR-514b-5p promotes metastasis and chemoresistance through EMT modulation. These molecules primarily function by binding to and regulating the translation of specific mRNAs, affecting expression of genes such as CDH1, CLDN1, NTN1, and FZD4. Their expression balance serves as a biomarker for diagnosis and prognosis in cancers, with therapeutic prospects for modulating their activity to counteract tumor progression and drug resistance[1][2][4].
