To the Editor, we have been very pleased to read the interesting work proposed by Salemi et al. regarding the expression of specific fragments of microRNA (miRNA), particularly miR-132 and miR-212, as potential key regulators in prostate cancer (PCa). As outlined by the Authors, the altered expression of miRNAs in cancer pathogenesis represents a well-consolidated knowledge in the current literature. More specifically, both miR-212 and miR-132 regulate subsets of genes involved in tumor progression in several tumor cell types as PCa, proving a central role in tumorigenesis, cell adhesion, and angiogenesis. In addition, a strong association between miR-132 expression and high Gleason score PCa has been lately depicted [...].

D014408 Biomarkers, Tumor Molecular products metabolized and secreted by neoplastic tissue and characterized biochemically in cells or BODY FLUIDS. They are indicators of tumor stage and grade as well as useful for monitoring responses to treatment and predicting recurrence.

D035683 MicroRNAs Small double-stranded, non-protein coding RNAs, 21-25 nucleotides in length generated from single-stranded microRNA gene transcripts by the same RIBONUCLEASE III, Dicer, that produces small interfering RNAs (RNA, SMALL INTERFERING). They become part of the RNA-INDUCED SILENCING COMPLEX and repress the translation (TRANSLATION, GENETIC) of target RNA by binding to homologous 3'UTR region as an imperfect match. The small temporal RNAs (stRNAs), let-7 and lin-4, from C. elegans, are the first 2 miRNAs discovered, and are from a class of miRNAs involved in developmental timing.
