MIR29B2 is a microRNA gene located on chromosome 1, encoding a precursor miRNA that is processed into mature miR-29bs, which have identical sequences to those encoded by MIR29B1 on chromosome 7 [PMC5643533]. MIR29B2 has been implicated in various cellular processes and its role in cancer has been observed, such as being up-regulated in late-relapse Hodgkin lymphoma samples [PMC7667426]. In MDA-MB-231S cells, the knockdown of LASP-1 led to the upregulation of MIR29B2 and a decrease in MMP9 transcript levels [PMC4651668]. MIR29B2 also inhibits the expression of its target gene MCT1 when activated by MAPK signaling cascades, potentially affecting insulin secretion [PMC7795239]. MicroRNAs, including MIR29B2, are frequently located in chromosomal regions susceptible to alterations in cancer models, with MIR29B2 specifically situated on the long arm of chromosome 1 [PMC2683874]. Differential expression of MIR29B2 has been noted not only in late-relapse Hodgkin lymphoma samples compared to early-relapse samples but also among precursor RNAs in various biological contexts [PMC6801644]. Additionally, in mouse brain endothelial cells exposed to homocysteine, an increase in miR-29b family members, including MIR29B2, was observed [PMC6651274].
