Abstract:MiRNAs are post-transcriptional regulators of cell proliferation, tissue differentiation, embryonic development and apoptosis. We profiled the expression of miRNAs in a panel of taxane-resistant human breast and ovarian cancer cell lines using the recently developed WaferGen SmartChip System. Four breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7, BT-549, MDA-MB-231 and T-47D) and four ovarian cancer cell lines (1A9/A2780, ES-2, MES-OV and OVCAR-3) were selected for resistance to either docetaxel or paclitaxel alone or co-selec… 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.
