Clinical relevance of microRNA miR-21, miR-31, miR-92a, miR-101, miR-106a and miR-145 in colorectal cancer [PDF]
BMC Cancer, 2012 MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate gene expression by binding to mRNA, and can function as oncogenes or tumor suppressors depending on the target. In this study, using qRT-PCR, we examined the expression of six miRNAs (miR-21, miR-31, miR-92a, miR-101, miR-106a and miR-145) in tumors from 193 prospectively recruited patients with colorectal cancer, and ...

FAIM Is Regulated by MiR-206, MiR-1-3p and MiR-133b [PDF]
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020 Apoptosis plays an important role during development, control of tissue homeostasis and in pathological contexts. Apoptosis is executed mainly through the intrinsic pathway or the death receptor pathway, i.e., extrinsic pathway. These processes are tightly controlled by positive and negative regulators that dictate pro- or anti-apoptotic death receptor
