Putative tumor suppressor miR‐145 inhibits colon cancer cell growth by targeting oncogene friend leukemia virus integration 1 gene
24 Aug 2010
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Tumor suppressor microRNA miR-145 is commonly down-regulated in colon carcinoma tissues, but its specific role in tumors remains unknown. METHODS: In this study, the authors identified the Friend leukemia virus integration 1 gene (FLI1) as a novel target of miR-145. FLI1 is involved in t(11;22)(q24:q12) reciprocal chromosomal translocation in Ewing sarcoma, and its expression appears to be associated...
