MicroRNA-151 and Its Hosting Gene FAK (Focal Adhesion Kinase) Regulate Tumor Cell Migration and Spreading of Hepatocellular Carcinoma†
1 Sept 2010
Abstract excerpt
Recurrent chromosomal aberrations are often observed in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but little is known about the functional non-coding sequences, particularly microRNAs (miRNAs), at the chromosomal breakpoints in HCC. Here we show that 22 miRNAs are often amplified or deleted in HCC. MicroRNA-151 (miR-151), a frequently amplified miRNA on 8q24.3, is correlated with intrahepatic metastasis of HCC. We further...
