Molecular effects of miR-24 parathyroid glands and endocrine pancreas, and possible roles in MEN1 tumorigenesis.

miR-24 Target Effect Possible Role in MEN1 Tumorigenesis Reference
Parathyroid glands
MEN1 No effect on MEN1 mRNA expression. Loss of menin protein expression. Uncontrolled cell proliferation [27]
Endocrine pancreas
MEN1 Reduction of both MEN1 mRNA and menin expression. Uncontrolled cell proliferation [36]
CDKN1B Reduction of expression of both CDKN1B mRNA and of p27kip1 protein in a mouse insulinoma cell line (MIN6). Enhanced proliferation of beta-cells and hyperplasia of pancreas islets [36]
CDKN1B Reduction of expression of CDKN1B mRNA in an immortalized human pancreas beta cell line (Blox5). No data on expression of p27kip1 protein. Enhanced proliferation of beta-cells and hyperplasia of pancreas islets [36]
CDKN2C No effect on expression of both CDKN2C mRNA and of p18Ink4c protein in a mouse insulinoma cell line (MIN6). Non applicable [36]
CDKN2C Reduction of expression of CDKN2C mRNA in an immortalized human pancreas beta cell line (Blox5). No data on expression of p18Ink4c protein. Enhanced proliferation of beta-cells and hyperplasia of pancreas islets [36]
