miR-203 and cancer / 国际肿瘤学杂志

ABSTRACT

MicroRNA(miR)-203 is a stemness-inhibiting miRNA that adjusts the epithelioid cell differentiation by restricting the expression of stemness-related transcription factor.Its abnormal expression has been detected in several types of human cancers,including bladder cancer,breast cancer,colon cancer and pancreatic cancer.miR-203 plays a critical role in the tumor genesis and development by regulating cell proliferation,differentiation and apoptosis.
