Molecular mechanism of chemoresistance by miR-215 in osteosarcoma and colon cancer cells
30 Apr 2010
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Translational control mediated by non-coding microRNAs (miRNAs) plays a key role in the mechanism of cellular resistance to anti-cancer drug treatment. Dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) and thymidylate synthase (TYMS, TS) are two of the most important targets for antifolate- and fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapies in the past 50 years. In this study, we investigated the roles of miR-215 in the...
