MicroRNAs are endogenous non-coding small RNAs composed of about 22 nucleotides, which are widely found in eukaryotic cells and regulate gene expression at the post-transcriptional level through complementary pairing with target genes, leading to mRNA degradation or translation inhibition. miR-34 is a highly conserved miRNA during evolution. Recent studies have found that members of the miR-34 family are involved in regulating biological processes such as aging, ciliogenesis, and immunity. To have a more comprehensive understanding of miR-34, this paper reviewed the functional evolution of miR-34, and provided a reference for further research on the related functions of miR-34.

microRNAs (miRNAs), regulatory non-coding RNAs, can change translation, and decrease protein expression. miR-16 and miR-34a families are among the most abundant tumor suppressors and highly conserved microRNAs recognized. They have vital regulatory roles in health and disease.

Introduction: Metformin induces radiation sensitivity in cancer cells, including colorectal cancer cells; however, the exact molecular mechanisms underlying its radiosensitive effects are not yet known. In this study, we investigated the role of the p53/miR-34a/SIRT1 pathway in the radiosensitivity of colon cancer cells.
Methods: The study was carried out from 2020 to 2022 at the Qazvin University of Medical Science's Cellular and Molecular Research Center.

Background: Sperm samples are separated into bad and good quality samples in function of their phenotype, but this does not indicate their genetic quality.
Methods: Here, we used GeneChip miRNA arrays to analyze microRNA expression in ten semen samples selected based on high-magnification morphology (score 6 vs. score 0) to identify miRNAs linked to sperm phenotype.
