In vitro and in vivo inhibition of LARP1 induces cell death in part through its post‐transcriptional regulation of the apoptosis mediators BCL2 and BIK. 108, 109 Although no consensus binding sequences within its targets have yet been identified, LARP1 binds these mRNAs via its C‐terminal ‘DM15 repeat region’ that adopts a HEAT domain‐like configuration.110 Although it has not been associated with ncRNAs in EOC, in breast and prostate cancer LARP1 has recently been shown to be one of several targets of miR‐26a. This evidence concerns the gene LARP1 and prostate carcinoma.
