MicroRNAs in cancer.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of miRNA dysregulation in the cellular pathways that lead to the progressive conversion of normal cells into cancer cells and the potential to develop new molecular miRNA-targeted therapies are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

miR-221&222 regulate TRAIL resistance and enhance tumorigenicity through PTEN and TIMP3 downregulation.

TL;DR: It is reported that miR-221&222 are overexpressed in aggressive non-small cell lung cancer and hepatocarcinoma cells, as compared with less invasive and/or normal lung and liver cells, and it is demonstrated that the MET oncogene is involved in miR+222 activation through the c-Jun transcription factor.
Journal ArticleDOI

miRNA profiling of cancer

TL;DR: How microRNA profiles are altered in cancer is discussed, highlighting their potential as sensitive biomarkers for cancer risk stratification, outcome prediction and classification of histological subtypes.
