microRNA-145 suppresses lung adenocarcinoma-initiating cell proliferation by targeting OCT4
7 Apr 2011
Abstract excerpt
Recent studies demonstrated that microRNA-145 is downregulated in human cancer cells and may function as a tumor suppressor. However, its role in lung cancer tumorigenesis remains unclear. Here, we demonstrated that upregulation of miR-145 reduced the proliferation and invasion as well as the ratio of CD133-positive initiating cells and the tumorosphere growth capacity of the human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cell...
