“…Recent studies have shown that miRNAs are aberrantly expressed in different cell types and at different developmental stages, suggesting that miRNAs play important roles in cell growth (8)(9)(10)(11)(12), differentiation (13,14), metabolism (15), and programmed cell death (16). Moreover, previous studies have demonstrated that a number of miRNAs are also involved in tumor pathogenesis and the development of different types of human cancers, including cervical (17), ovarian (8,18), lung (19), breast (9), colon (10), and prostate cancers (12).…”
