Sumario: | microRNA are noncoding endogenous RNAs of ∼ 25-nucleotide, involved in RNA silencing and controlling of cell function. Recent evidence has highlighted the important role of various in the biology of human cancers. miR-9 is a highly conserved microRNA and abnormal regulation of miR-9 expression has various impacts on disease pathology. miR-9 may play a dual tumor-suppressive or oncomiR activity in several cancers. There have been conflicting reports concerning the role of miR-9 in gastrointestinal cancers. Several signaling pathways including PDK/AKT, Hippo, Wnt/β-catenin and PDGFRB axes are affected by miR-9 in suppressing proliferation, invasion and metastasis of tumor cells. Oncogenic miR-9 triggers migration, metastasis and clinic-pathological characteristics of patients with gastrointestinal malignancy by targeting various enzymes and transcription factors such as E-cadherin, HK2, LMX1A, and CDX2. On the other hand, long non-coding RNAs and circular RNAs can modulate miR-9 expression in human cancers. In this review, we aimed to summarize recent findings about the potential value of miR-9 in gastrointestinal tumors, that include: screening, prognostic and treatment. |
