Abstract:Objective MicroRNA (miRNA) is an important factor in the regulation of gene transcription. This study was aimed at investigating the role of miR-4516 in the chemoresistance of gastric cancer cells. Methods miR-4516 expression levels were measured in gastric cancer cell line SGC7901 and in 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)resistant SGC7901 cells (SGC7901/5-FU) via microarray analysis and RT-PCR. A miR-4516 inhibitor and negative controls were transfected into SGC7901/5-FU cells. A miR-4516 mimic and negative controls were … Show more
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.
