MIR532 is a microRNA that has been implicated in various cellular processes and diseases, including cancer. It was significantly up-regulated in a majority of HCC-post HCV positive patients, indicating a potential role in liver cancer pathogenesis [PMC3245605]. Interestingly, MIR532 has been shown to inhibit the invasiveness of parental tumor cells and is not regulated by TERT, suggesting its role as a tumor suppressor [PMC8253104]. It is located upstream of miR500A and acts as a negative regulator of TERT in ovarian cancer by decreasing cell proliferation and invasion capacity [PMC8253104]. MIR532's expression was not affected by TERT binding to the upstream region containing TBE sequences, which contrasts with miR500A that is regulated by TERT [PMC8253104]. In the context of ovarian cancer, MIR532 expression levels were correlated with overall survival outcomes for patients [PMC7359466]. Additionally, high levels of exosomal MIR532 were associated with favorable overall survival in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients, suggesting its potential as a prognostic biomarker [PMC7912829]. The promoter activity of MIR532 can be activated by the introduction of transcription factors such as TTF-1 but is not affected by DNA hypermethylation; this indicates other regulatory mechanisms at play for this microRNA's expression [PMC5497805].
