MIR615 is a microRNA encoded within the HOXC cluster on chromosome 13 and is implicated in various cancers, including prostate, colon, and osteosarcoma (OS) [PMC4620477][PMC3037319][PMC9441498'>PMC4620477][PMC3037319][PMC9441498[PMC3037319][PMC9441498]. It consists of two microRNAs, MIR615-5p and MIR615-3p [PMC4620477]. In OS patient tissues, MIR615 was significantly downregulated and associated with poor clinical outcomes [PMC9441498]. The gene's epigenetic regulation is a novel discovery, with its location in a high CpG density region suggesting potential epigenetic regulation mechanisms [PMC3037319]. Research involving CRISPR/Cas9 technology targeted the MIR615-3p-encoding region for gene editing to study its function in cancer cells [PMC4620477]. Overexpression of MIR615 has been shown to inhibit cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro [PMC10057657]], indicating its potential role as a tumor suppressor. Additionally, changes in the expression of MIR615 have been observed in various studies involving miRNA-gene networks and miRNA expression profiles across different conditions [PMC5611503][PMC9702351][PMC5234833[PMC9702351][PMC5234833].
