Dynamic changes in the expression of MicroRNA-31 during inflammatory bowel disease-associated neoplastic transformation
1 Jun 2010
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at increased risk of developing colorectal cancer. Aberrant microRNA (miR) expression has been linked to carcinogenesis; however, no reports document a relationship between IBD-related neoplasia (IBDN) and altered miR expression. In the current study we sought to identify specific miR dysregulation along the normal-inflammation-cancer axis. METHODS:...
