“…On one hand, miR-31 is found up regulated and to enhance invasion migration in 6 cancer types (cervical, colorectal, cutaneous squamous cell, esophageal squamous cell, Kaposi’s sarcoma, lung) and on the other hand, is found down regulated and to repress invasion migration in 7 cancer types (breast, esophageal, Ewing sarcoma, glioma, melanoma, ovarian, prostate). A previous report of the role of miR-31 in pancreatic cancer is ambiguous; both inhibition and enforced expression of miR-31 reduced migration and invasion in PDAC cell lines (35). In the present study, the enforced expression of miR-31 enhanced invasion and migration in three pancreatic cancer cell lines tested irrespective of KRAS mutational status.…”
