SID 3712249 (MiR-544 Inhibitor 1) is a miR-544 biogenesis inhibitor. SID 3712249 binds directly to the precursor miRNA. SID 3712249 blocks production of the mature microRNA and decreases miR-544, HIF-1α, and ATM transcripts. SID 3712249 can be used in the research of cancers, such as breast cancer[1].
SID 3712249 (MiR-544 Inhibitor 1) is an inhibitor of the biogenesis of microRNA-544 (miR-544). MiR-544 represses expression of mTOR, promoting tumor cell survival in a hypoxic environment. Inhibition of miR-544 processing with MiR-544 Inhibitor 1 caused apoptosis in triple negative breast cancer cells in response to hypoxic stress, sensitized their response to 5-fluorouracil, and blocked their growth after transplantion into immunodeficient mice. SID 3712249 (MiR-544 Inhibitor 1) is believed to bind directly to the precursor miRNA, blocking production of the mature microRNA and resulting in decreased miR-544, HIF-1α, and ATM transcripts. MiR-544 Inhibitor 1 was as selective and 25-fold more potent than a 2μ-O-methyl RNA antagomir.
