MicroRNAs and miRceptors: a new mechanism of action for intercellular communication
Open accessAbstract
MicroRNAs (miRs) are small non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) that control the expression of target genes by modulating (usually inhibiting) their translation into proteins. This 'traditional' mechanism of action of miRs has been recently challenged by new discoveries pointing towards a role of miRs as 'hormones', capable of binding to proteic receptors (miRceptors) and triggering their downstream signalling pathways. These findings harbour particular significance within the tumour microenvironment (TME), defined as the variety of non-cancerous cells surrounding cancer cells, but are relevant also for other diseases. In recent years it has become clearer that the TME does not passively assist the growth of cancer cells but contributes to its biology. Some of the mediators of the intercellular communication between cancer cells and TME are miRs shuttled within exosomes, a subtype of cellular released extracellular vesicles. This article will highlight the most recent findings on the biological implications of miR-miRceptor interactions for the biology of the TME and other diseases, and will provide some perspectives on the future development of this fascinating research.This article is part of the discussion meeting issue 'Extracellular vesicles and the tumour microenvironment'.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
