MIR20B is a microRNA that is found to have low expression in PC3 GSCs and U87MG GSCs, which are characterized by high glycolytic activity and expression of CD44 and ALDH1A3 mesenchymal markers [PMC7463503]. In TE3 esophageal cancer cells, transfection of MIR20B affected autophagy [PMC5302951]. Overexpression of the miR‐106a‐363 cluster, which includes MIR20B, exhibited an anti-proliferative effect on cancer cells [PMC8410538]. Upregulation of MIR20B reduced metastasis of 4T1 breast cancer cells to the lung, suggesting its role as a tumor suppressor miRNA [PMC7062679]. The rs13897515 polymorphism of the MIR20B gene has been associated with differences in Aβ1-42 levels in the cerebrospinal fluid [PMC9792503]. The ADNI database was queried for SNPs in or near the MIR20B gene on ChrXq26.2 [PMC9054681]. A miRNA peak downstream of MIR20B was highly represented in the testis [PMC3576234]. In a study predicting module genes, MIR106A, MIR106B, MIR20B, and MIR519D were identified as potential miRNAs [PMC9208509]. Individual assays also studied miR15b, MIR20B, miR122, miR-140-3p, miR-185, miR-192, miR-375, miR-483-5p and miR885-5P [PMC3956820]. In relation to Alzheimer's disease (AD), when the APOE ε4 allele was absent, higher levels of MIR20B were associated with reduced probability of AD and increased probability of normal cognitive function [PMC9054681].
