           A curated ncRNAomics knowledgebase for bridging basic and clinical research in eye diseases.

Detail of uveal melanoma (UM)
ncRNA name hsa-miR-137
ncRNA Category miRNA
Disease name uveal melanoma (UM)
Species Homo sapiens
Tissues/Cell_line human UM cell lines M17, M2 and SP6.5; human uveal melanocytes um95; human embryonic kidney cell line HEK293
Methods qRT-PCR, MTS assay, flow cytometry, luciferase reporter assay, Western blot
Expression pattern down-regulated
Functional description miR-137 can act as a tumor suppressor in uveal melanoma cell proliferation through downregulation of the targets MITF and CDK6. miR-137 may be epigenetically silenced during uveal melanoma tumorigenesis.
