miR-98 functions as a tumor suppressor in salivary adenoid cystic carcinomas

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: miR-98, a member of the let-7 family of microRNAs, is downregulated in many malignant tumors and has been correlated with tumor progression. However, the roles of miR-98 in salivary adenoid cystic carcinomas (SACCs) are still unclear. Thus, we explored the role of miR-98 in the pathogenesis of SACCs. METHODS: Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction was used to quantify miR-98 expression in SACC...
