Research progress of microRNA-214 in the cervical cancer / 医学研究生学报

ABSTRACT

MicroRNAs ( miRNAs ) play important roles in the processes of the occurrence and development of cancers , through regulating tumor related gene expression at post-transcription.It has shown that the expression of miR-214 is aberrant in cervi-cal cancer.Also,miR-214 could affect the proliferation, migration, invasion and apoptosis of tumor cells by targeting various genes . This article focuses on the studies of miR-214 function in cervical cancer , and will provide a novel approach for the clinical diagnosis and the treatment of cervical cancer .
