Naturally occurring miRNAs that regulate human oncogenes and methods of use therof are described. Suitable nucleic acids for use in the methods and compositions described herein include, but are not limited to, pri-miRNA, pre- miRNA, mature miRNA or fragments of variants thereof that retain the biological activity of the mature miRNA and DNA encoding a pri-miRNA, pre- miRNA, mature miRNA, fragments or variants thereof, or regulatory elements of the miRNA. The compositions containing nucleic acids are administered to a patient in need of treatment or prophylaxis of at least one symptom or manifestation of cancer. In one embodiment, the compositions are administered in an effective amount to inhibit gene expression of one or more oncogenes. Methods for treatment or prevention of at least one symptom or manifestation of cancer are also described.

L'invention concerne des miARN naturels qui régulent les oncogènes humains et des procédés de leur utilisation. Les acides nucléiques appropriés pouvant s'utiliser dans les procédés et compositions de l'invention comprennent, de façon non limitative, des pri-miARN, des pre-miARN, des miARN matures ou des fragments de leurs variants qui retiennent l'activité biologique du miARN mature et d'ADN codant un pri-miARN, un pre-miARN, un miARN mature, ou leurs fragments ou variants, ou des éléments régulateurs du miARN. Les compositions contenant des acides nucléiques sont administrées à un patient nécessitant un traitement ou une prophylaxie d'au moins un symptôme ou manifestation du cancer. Dans un mode de réalisation, les compositions sont administrées dans des quantités efficaces pour inhiber l'expression génique d'un ou plusieurs oncogènes. L'invention décrit également des procédés de traitement ou de prévention d'au moins un symptôme ou une manifestation du cancer.
