Abstract:Background: microRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as key regulators of gene expression, and their altered expression has been associated with tumorigenesis and tumor progression. As a result, miRNAs represent important diagnostic biomarkers for the advancement of cancer and potential therapeutic approaches. They may be up-regulated or down-regulated in various tumor types, thus act as oncogenes or tumor suppressors. Although accumulating evidence suggests the role of aberrant miRNA expression in endometrial carcinog… 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.
