MiR-144 Inhibits Proliferation and Induces Apoptosis and Autophagy in Lung Cancer Cells by Targeting TIGAR
1 Jan 2015
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: MiRNAs are noncoding RNAs of 20-24 nucleotides that function as post-transcriptional negative regulators of gene expression. MiRNA genes are usually transcribed by RNA polymerase II in the nucleus. Their initial products are pre-miRNAs which have cap sequences and polyA tails. The p53-induced glycolysis and apoptosis regulator (TIGAR) was discovered through microarray analysis of gene expression...
