Melanoma is a highly aggressive cancer endowed with a unique capacity of rapidly metastasizing, which is fundamentally driven by aberrant cell motility behaviors. Discovering "migrastatics" targets, specifically controlling invasion and dissemination of melanoma cells during metastasis, is therefore of primary importance. Here, we uncover the...

ABSTRACT Discovery of therapeutic targets against metastasis is of primary importance since being the main cause of cancer-related death. Melanoma is a highly aggressive cancer endowed with a unique capacity of rapidly metastasizing. Deregulation of calcium homeostasis has been involved in numerous cellular metastatic behaviors, although the...

Competition among RNAs to bind miRNA is proposed to influence biological systems. However, the role of this competition in disease onset is unclear. Here, we report that TYRP1 mRNA, in addition to encoding tyrosinase-related protein 1 (TYRP1), indirectly promotes cell proliferation by sequestering miR-16 on non-canonical miRNA response...
