Epigenetic regulation of miR-218 and its host gene, SLIT2 in breast cancer
2016-03-31
Abstract excerpt
Numerous studies have shown that microRNAs are deregulated in various types of cancer. Although miR-218 aberrant expression has been documented in various cancers, the epigenetic regulation of miR-218 is unclear in breast cancer. Our results demonstrate that treatment of breast cancer cells with demethylating agent, 5-azacytidine, resulted in increased expression of miR-218 and its host gene slit-2, suggesting tha...
