Exosomal miRNAs in B-CLL

mRNAs Expression
in CLL
Target Function Oncogenic or Suppressive Refs.
miR-202-3p Upregulated Sufu gene

‘suppressing fused’ (Sufu) is targeted by gene of miR-202-3p

increase, modulator of the Gli Hedgehog signaling pathway

-During development, it is thought to be involved in pattern formation and cellular proliferation.

- decreasing in the intracellular level of this miRNA causes an increase in the expression level of Sufu, which aids tumor cell survival and progression.

Oncogene [69, 71]
miR-146a/miR-451 Upregulated Kinases in Stromal cells inducing the stromal cells activation by phosphorylation of several kinases Oncogene [69, 71, 75]
miR-150 Upregulated c-Myb playing an important role in the process of hematopoiesis, particularly in the development of lymphoid lineage Oncogene [69, 71]
