@ARTICLE{Honardoost, author = {Afrang, Negin and Honardoost, Maryam and }, title = {Cell cycle regulatory markers in melanoma: New strategies in diagnosis and treatment}, volume = {33}, number = {1}, abstract ={Background: Melanoma has been known as an aggressive type of skin cancer in recent years. Reports have distributed the spread rate of melanoma among white skin populations. Also, many studies have mentioned several causes of melanoma. Ultraviolet radiation was represented to be the most important reason for occurrence of melanoma. However, recent studies have found that a combination of factors, such as environmental and genetic factors, can contribute to occurrence of various cancers, specifically melanoma. Methods: Different studies have been conducted on the efficacy of genetic disorders in melanoma. These surveys marked the key role of specific biomarkers in molecular and cellular processes, and investigations have found the expression of several genes in these processes. In addition, aberrant expression of these genes due to mutation and methylation can affect the whole process. Results: The expression process of these genes is regulated by microRNAs. These new biomolecules have been considered as negative regulators because of managing molecular and cellular processes. MicroRNAs are small conserved regulators attached to their targets leading to rearrangement of gene expression. Adherence of these noncoding RNAs can cause mRNA degradation or inhibit its translation. Conclusion: Recently, the application of specific genes in melanoma has been studied. In this review, the way melanoma is regulated because of these biomarkers and their demand through cell cycle in diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutic periods was considered. }, URL = {http://mjiri.iums.ac.ir/article-1-5159-en.html}, eprint = {http://mjiri.iums.ac.ir/article-1-5159-en.pdf}, journal = {Medical Journal of the Islamic Republic Of Iran}, doi = {10.47176/mjiri.33.96}, year = {2019} }
