Aberrant microRNA expression and its implications in the pathogenesis of leukemias
6 Sept 2012
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of non-coding, endogenous, small RNAs that negatively regulate gene expression by inducing degradation or translational inhibition of target mRNAs. Aberrant expression of miRNAs appears to be a common characteristic of hematological malignancies including leukemias. AIM: Here we review the available data supporting a role of aberrant expression of miRNAs in the...
