1 Downregulation of miR-17-92a cluster promotes autophagy induction in response to celastrol treatment in prostate cancer cells. celastrol microRNA 17 Homo sapiens
2 In the present study, we demonstrate that the miR-17-92a cluster plays a negative role in celastrol induced-autophagy. celastrol microRNA 17 Homo sapiens
3 Celastrol induced autophagy was inhibited by miR-20a or miR-17, while the inhibitory effects were rescued in the presence of pcDNA-ATG7 lacking 3" UTR, demonstrating that these two members target ATG7 to inhibit celastrol-induced autophagy. celastrol microRNA 17 Homo sapiens
4 In summary, our results demonstrate that celastrol downregulates AR and its target miR-17-92a, leading to autophagy induction in prostate cancer cells. celastrol microRNA 17 Homo sapiens
