Germline variants within BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes account for approximately 25% of familial aggregations of breast-ovarian cancers. Low or no expression of BRCA1 in breast and ovarian cancers is associated with a good clinical response to treatment with platinum therapies and PARP1 inhibitors. Recent studies demonstrated that microRNAs - small non-coding RNAs, involved in the control of gene expression, can decrease BRCA1 expression by targeting the 3'UTR region of the gene. This article reviews reported relationships between various miRNAs, such as miRNA-9, miRNA-146a, miRNA-182 miRNA-218, miRNA-638 and the response to cytostatic drugs, mainly to platins and PARP1 inhbitors, for the treatment of breast and ovarian cancer associated with BRCA1 mutations.
BRCA1或BRCA2基因中的种系变异约占乳腺-卵巢癌家族聚集病例的25%。乳腺癌和卵巢癌中BRCA1低表达或无表达与铂类疗法及PARP1抑制剂治疗的良好临床反应相关。最近的研究表明,微小RNA(参与基因表达调控的小型非编码RNA)可通过靶向该基因的3'UTR区域降低BRCA1的表达。本文综述了已报道的各种微小RNA(如miRNA-9、miRNA-146a、miRNA-182、miRNA-218、miRNA-638)与细胞毒性药物(主要是铂类和PARP1抑制剂)治疗BRCA1突变相关乳腺癌和卵巢癌的反应之间的关系。
