The role of miR-543 in human cancerous and noncancerous diseases.

MicroRNA (miRNA) is a noncoding single-stranded RNA molecule that can regulate the posttranscriptional expression level of a gene by binding to the 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) of the target messenger RNA. miR-543 is a kind of miRNA, which plays an important role in the occurrence and development of various human cancerous and noncancerous diseases. miR-543 directly or indirectly regulates a large number of downstream target genes and plays an important role in cellular components, biological processes, and molecular functions. In addition, many studies have verified the regulatory mechanism, physiological role, biological function, and prognostic value of miR-543. Therefore, this article reviews the papers published in the past decade and elaborates on the research progress of miR-543 from the aspects of physiology and pathology, especially in cancerous and other noncancerous diseases. In particular, we pay attention to the expression patterns, direct targets, biological functions, related pathways, and prognostic value of miR-543 reported in experimental articles. And by comparing similar research articles, we point out existing controversies in this field to date, so as to facilitate further research in the future.
