Overexpression of microRNA-16 declines cellular growth, proliferation and induces apoptosis in human breast cancer cells [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNA) are a large family of small single-stranded RNA molecules found in all multicellular organisms. Early studies have been shown that miRNA are involved in cancer development and progression, and this role can be done by working as an ...

Aberrant N-glycolylneuraminic acid in breast MCF-7 cancer cells and cancer stem cells
N-Glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) is not normally detected in humans because humans lack the hydroxylase enzyme that converts cytidine-5′-monophosphate-N-acetylneuraminic acid (CMP-Neu5Ac) to CMP-Neu5Gc; thus, any Neu5Gc appearing in the human body is ...
