Twist-related protein 1 (Twist1) is a basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor (TF) being coded by the TWIST1 gene. This TF has a fundamental effect on the normal development and in the pathogenesis of various diseases especially cancer. Twist1 has interactions with some long non-coding RNAs and miRNAs. The interactions between this TF and various miRNAs such as miR-16, miR-26b-5p, miR-1271, miR-539, miR-214, miR-200b/c, miR-335, miR-10b, and miR-381 are implicated in the carcinogenic processes. TP73-AS1, LINC01638, ATB, NONHSAT101069, CASC15, H19, PVT1, LINC00339, LINC01385, TANAR, SNHG5, DANCR, CHRF, and TUG1 are among long non-coding RNAs which interact with Twist1 and participate in the carcinogenesis. This review aims at depicting the interaction between these non-coding transcripts and Twist1 and the consequence of these interactions in human neoplasms.
Twist 相关蛋白 1(Twist1)是一种碱性螺旋-环-螺旋(bHLH)转录因子(TF),由 TWIST1 基因编码。这种 TF 对正常发育和各种疾病特别是癌症的发病机制有重要影响。Twist1 与一些长非编码 RNA 和 miRNA 相互作用。该 TF 与各种 miRNA 之间的相互作用,如 miR-16、miR-26b-5p、miR-1271、miR-539、miR-214、miR-200b/c、miR-335、miR-10b 和 miR-381,与致癌过程有关。TP73-AS1、LINC01638、ATB、NONHSAT101069、CASC15、H19、PVT1、LINC00339、LINC01385、TANAR、SNHG5、DANCR、CHRF 和 TUG1 是与 Twist1 相互作用并参与致癌作用的长非编码 RNA 之一。本综述旨在描述这些非编码转录物与 Twist1 之间的相互作用以及这些相互作用在人类肿瘤中的后果。
