AbstractRegulated cell proliferation is an effector mechanism of regeneration, whilst dysregulated cell proliferation is a feature of cancer. We have previously identified microRNA (miRNA) that regulate successful and failed human liver regeneration. We hypothesized that these regulators may directly modify tumor behavior. Here we show that inhibition of miRNAs -503 and -23a, alone or in combination, enhances tumor proliferation in hepatocyte and non-hepatocyte derived cancers in vitro, driving more aggressive tumor behavior in vivo. Inhibition of miRNA-152 caused induction of DNMT1, site-specific methylation with associated changes in gene expression and in vitro and in vivo growth inhibition. Enforced changes in expression of two miRNA recapitulating changes observed in failed regeneration led to complete growth inhibition of multi-lineage cancers in vivo. Our results indicate that regulation of regeneration and tumor aggressiveness are concordant and that miRNA-based inhibitors of regeneration may constitute a novel treatment strategy for human cancers.

The effects of endogenous factors (plant age, section length, and section location) and environmental factors (temperature and mineral nutrition) upon organ regeneration on isolated root sections of Ohondrilla juncea L. were used to develop a standard assay system for the study of the chemical regulation of regeneration. Bud and root formation and its polarity in the presence of a variety of regulators alone and in combinations were observed quantitatively. Bud numbers were increased by auxin (low concentrations), cytokinin, and gibberellin treatments. High concentra� tions of auxin inhibited bud formation and this effect was reversed by antiauxin, cytokinin, or gibberellin. Adenine did not counteract auxin� induced bud inhibition but adenine and N�6�benzyladenine did counteract inhibition induced by the purine antagonist 2,6�diaminopurine. Numbers of regenerated roots were increased by auxin treatment and reduced by cytokinin and gibberellin treatment. On control and auxin� treated sections, bud formation was strongly polar and proximal and cytokinin and gibberellin treatments lessened the polarity. Growth retardants inhibited regeneration. Of a number of synthetic auxins tested, 2,4.dichlorophenoxy. acet.O.methylhydroxamic acid and 4�amino.3,5,6.trichloropicolinic acid were the most effective inhibitors of bud formation.

The mechanism of nerve-to-muscle transmission, as well as the trophic influence of the nervous system on effector organs, have always been in the focus of attention of scientists of the Kazan physiological school. Suffice it to recall the famous physiologist A.F. Samoilov, who in 1924 for the first time established the chemical nature of neuromuscular transmission.
