Abstract excerpt
To further our understanding of the pathobiology of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), we previously performed microRNA profiling that revealed downregulation of miR-200b in ESCC. Using quantitative real-time PCR applied to 88 patient samples, we confirmed that ESCC tumors expressed significantly lower levels of miR-200b compared with the respective adjacent benign tissues (P = 0.003). Importantly,...
