MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a family of small RNAs which are ∼20 nucleotides in length and are non-translated. To date more than 700 miRNAs have been identified and their involvement in many essential cellular processes is now apparent. By binding with target mRNAs, miRNAs are able to regulate both mRNA stability and mRNA translational efficiency. Integrins are a family of transmembrane proteins that both regulate cell-matrix interactions and serve as receptors that mediate intracellular signaling and a variety of cellular processes, including inflammatory responses, immunoresponses, and tumorogenesis. Integrin expression may also be regulated by miRNAs which can also modulate integrin signaling and function. Integrins are heterodimer adhesion proteins comprised of an α and a β subunit. Cumulatively, there are 18 α subunits and 8 β subunits that can combine to form 24 distinct αβ receptor complexes. Additionally, each integrin can be classfied into one of four groups based on its extracellular binding ligand: collagen, laminin, RGD (Arg-Gly-Asp) or leukocyte-specific receptors. Collagen ligand integrins include integrins α1 and α2 subunits, known to be regulated by specific miRNAs. Amongst the laminin ligand integrins, there are no integrin α subunits known to be regulated by miRNA. As for the RGD ligand integrins, integrin α5 is the only α subunit found to be regulated by miRNAs (miR-31, miR-17-92 cluster, and miR-148b). Finally, amongst the α subunits that comprise the leukocyte-specific receptor ligand integrins, integrins αD, αL, αM, αX have been reported regulation by different miRNAs. As for the integrin β subunits, regulation by miRNAs has been reported for all but β6 and β7 to date. However, computational predictions suggest that numerous miRNA potentially regulate a variety of target integrins. These predictions will undoubtedly guide future investigations of mechanisms underlying integrin expression mechanism and may ultimately yield new therapeutic tools.
