“…In the KO‐TRAMP and A537T‐TRAMP mice, elevated miRNAs resulted in reduction of prognostic markers of prostate cancer and metastasis, such as cysteine dioxygenase 1 ( Cdo1 ; Meller et al , 2016 ) and tensin 1 ( Tns1 ; Z. Zhu et al , 2020 ). The synergistic action of reduced miRNAs and increase in their target mRNAs, such as Unc5c (Latil et al , 2003 ), Thsd4 (Wu et al , 2020 ), Sparc (de Oliveira‐Barros et al , 2021 ), Runx1t1 (Kan et al , 2010 ) and Pcdh17 (Costa et al , 2011 ), known to promote prostate cancer, may contribute further to the prostate lesions and tumours in the A537T‐TRAMP mice (Fig 6E ). In the KO‐TRAMP mice, Vcan (with a role in cell adhesion and tumour progression; Ricciardelli et al , 1998 ) and Myb proto‐oncogene (Li et al , 2014 ) levels, that are markers of prostate metastasis (Edwards, 2012 ), were increased, which correlated with reduced miR‐669c‐5p, and reduction in miR‐676‐5p correlated with increased expression of insulin‐like growth factor‐1 ( Igf1 ) that promotes cell growth and malignancy (Perry et al , 2017 ; Fig 6F ).…”
