SNAI2 Modulates Colorectal Cancer 5-Fluorouracil Sensitivity through miR145 Repression
24 Sept 2014
Abstract excerpt
Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) has been associated with poor treatment outcomes in various malignancies and is inversely associated with miRNA145 expression. Therefore, we hypothesized that SNAI2 (Slug) may mediate 5-fluorouracil (5FU) chemotherapy resistance through inhibition of miR145 in colorectal cancer and thus represents a novel therapeutic target to enhance current colorectal cancer treatment...
