MicroRNA miR-34 Inhibits Human Pancreatic Cancer Tumor-Initiating Cells
27 Aug 2009
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been implicated in cancer initiation and progression via their ability to affect expression of genes and proteins that regulate cell proliferation and/or cell death. Transcription of the three miRNA miR-34 family members was recently found to be directly regulated by p53. Among the target proteins regulated by miR-34 are Notch pathway proteins and Bcl-2, suggesting the...
