The involvement of miRNA in the regulation of cell cycle events and pluripotency factors has also gained attention. Materials and Methods: In the present study, we used the g:Profiler platform to analyze transcription factor binding sites, miRNA networks and protein-protein interactions to identify novel links among the aforementioned processes. Results and Conclusion: A complex circuitry between retinoic acid signaling, SWI/SNF components, pluripotency factors including Oct4, Sox2 and Nanog and cell cycle regulators was identified. It is suggested that the DNA replication inhibitor geminin plays a central role in this circuitry.}, issn = {1109-6535}, URL = {https://cgp.iiarjournals.org/content/16/6/593}, eprint = {https://cgp.iiarjournals.org/content/16/6/593.full.pdf}, journal = {Cancer Genomics \& Proteomics} }
