MIR542 is a microRNA implicated in the regulation of tumor suppressive functions in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) [PMC7575175]. It has been identified as a potential tumor suppressor, with its expression affecting the migration and proliferation of U251 glioma cells [PMC7575175]. MIR542 targets the AEG-1 gene, which is involved in the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process, and downregulation of AEG-1 by MIR542 leads to a suppression of EMT, thereby inhibiting U251 cell aggressiveness and proliferation [PMC7575175]. The functional role of MIR542 in GBM and its underlying mechanisms are not fully understood; however, it has been shown to play a regulatory role in cancer development [PMC7575175]. The identification of targeted genes such as AEG-1 by MIR542 provides new insights into its role in tumor suppression and offers potential therapeutic targets for glioma treatment [PMC7575175].
