A high level of miR-100 is related to biochemical recurrence of localized prostate cancer in patients treated with radical prostatectomy. The role of miR-100 during carcinogenesis must be resolved in future studies to better understand the molecular pathways in which miR-100 is involved. This may open the possibility of using it as a prognostic marker and inspire the development of a target drug.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
