MicroRNA 145 may play an important role in uveal melanoma cell growth by potentially targeting insulin receptor substrate-1
20 Apr 2014
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) contribute to tumorigenesis by acting as either oncogenes or tumor suppressor genes. In this study, we investigated the role of miR-145 in the pathogenesis of uveal melanoma. METHODS: Expression profiles of miRNAs in uveal melanoma were performed using Agilent miRNA array. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction was used to screen the expression levels of miR-145 in normal...
