miR-21 Down-Regulation Suppresses Cell Growth, Invasion and Induces Cell Apoptosis by Targeting FASL, TIMP3, and RECK Genes in Esophageal Carcinoma
16 Mar 2013
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: miR-21 is overexpressed in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and is thought to be correlated with the development of the cancer. The target gene of miR-21 including FASL, TIMP3 and RECK is revealed by researchers. miR-21 may be involved in the tumorgenesis of ESCC by targeting FASL, TIMP3 and RECK. AIMS: The purpose of this study was to explore the mechanism of miR-21 in the development of...
