miR-9 mediates the downregulation of BRCA1 and impedes DNA damage repair in ovarian cancer. miR-9 may improve chemotherapeutic efficacy by increasing the sensitivity of cancer cells to DNA damage and may impact ovarian cancer therapy.
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.
