Target RTK pathway

Pathological function

1

MiR-26a/b

miRNA

EGFR (ErbB2)

Regulates expression of ErbB2; competes with HuR for binding to its 3’UTR in tamoxifen-resistant ER+ breast cancer [95]

2

MiR-34a

miRNA

EGFR (ErbB2)

Downregulates expression of ErbB2 [96]

3

MiR-155

miRNA

EGFR (ErbB2)

Downregulates HDAC2, a transcriptional activator of ErbB2; binds directly to a regulatory sequence over the coding region of ErbB2 [97]

4

MiR-24

miRNA

EGFR

Regulates levels of phospho-EGFR by targeting phosphatases, PTPN9 and PTPRF [98]

5

MiR206

miRNA

EGFR, MET

Downregulates EGFR and c-MET [99]

6

H19/miR675

lncRNA/daughter miRNA

EGFR, MET

Stabilizes EGFR and c-MET by targeting c-Cbl and Cbl-b [100]

7

CYTOR

lncRNA

EGFR

Regulates expression of EGFR pathway specific genes [101]

8

BCAR4

lncRNA

ErbB2/3

BCAR4 enhances ErbB2/3 activity in tamoxifen-resistant breast cancer [102]
