MicroRNA-21 Regulates the Invasion and Metastasis in Cholangiocarcinoma and May Be a Potential Biomarker for Cancer Prognosis
28 Feb 2013
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: MicroRNAs are noncoding RNA molecules that posttranscriptionally regulate gene expression. The aim of this study was to determine the role of microRNA-21 in cholangiocarcinomas and its relationship to cholangiocarcinoma RBE cell capacity for invasion and metastasis. METHODS: MicroRNA-21 expression was investigated in 41 cases of cholangiocarcinoma samples by in situ hybridization and real-time PCR....
