In conclusion, the present study tested a new strategy for testing mutability of a target by using partially degenerated oligonucleotides.
In vertebrate animals, most miRNAs bind to the 3′ untranslated region (3′UTR) of a target mRNA sequence at a partially complementary sequence and induce translation repression or mRNA degradation [ 6].
Using a variety of cell lines including the spontaneously immortalized human RPE cell line, ARPE-19, they found that rapamycin, an inhibitor of the nutrient-sensor mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), partially prevented loss of proliferative potential induced by oxidative stress, or ectopic p21 or p16 exposure, leading to deceleration of cellular senescence [ 12].
The structures were grown using a composite target, a SiO2 (99.99%) plate partially covered by polycrystalline chips of Si and Ge, and a second target of pure SiO2.
Conversely, forced-expression of Akt partially reversed NFV-mediated growth inhibition of these cells, suggesting that Akt may be a molecular target of NFV in NSCLC cells.
35, 38, 39 The miR-34 family (mir-34a, miR-34b, and miR-34c) affects expression of target genes, partially in a p53-dependent manner, and expression is decreased in osteosarcoma samples compared to tumor adjacent normal tissues.

The basic principle of the concept of "partially targeted embolisation" of brain AVMs is the hypothesis that specific angioarchitectural features of a pial brain AVM can be regarded as "weak points" that may predispose a patient to haemorrhage [ 20– 20].
microRNAs (miRNAs), which regulate the stability and translational efficiency of partially complementary target mRNAs, are small RNA molecules, typically 19 23 nucleotides in length.
In a complex with proteins from the Argonaut family, the 5′- or 3′-arm of the RNA duplex binds primarily to the 3′-untranslated region (3′-UTR) of partially complementary target messenger RNAs (mRNAs), causing translational repression and/or mRNA destabilization (Hammell 2008; Holtz and Pasquinelli 2009; Zhang and Su 2009; Stadler et al. 2012).
