MicroRNA profiling of a CD133+spheroid-forming subpopulation of the OVCAR3 human ovarian cancer cell line
29 May 2012
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are thought to be a source of tumor recurrence due to their stem cell-like properties. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate both normal stem cells and CSCs, and dysregulation of miRNAs has an important role in tumorigenesis. Cluster of differentiation (CD) 133(+) and spheroid formation have been reported to be one of the main features of ovarian CSCs. Therefore, we determined the miRNA...
