Knockout of Acinar Enriched microRNAs in Mice Promote Duct Formation But Not Pancreatic Cancer
31 Jul 2019
Abstract excerpt
Abstract The pancreatic acinar-enriched miR-216a, miR-216b and miR-217 are encoded within the miR217HG. These miRNAs have been purported to play a tumor suppressive role as their expression is reduced in both human and mouse pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). To examine this possibility, we generated individual, germline knockout (KO) mice of miR-216a, miR-216b or miR-217. Unlike our previous study showing...
