miR-367 promotes uveal melanoma cell proliferation and migration by regulating PTEN

Authors: J.W. Ling, P.R. Lu, Y.B. Zhang, S. Jiang and Z.C. Zhang

We aimed to investigate the biological role of miR-367 in uveal melanoma cell growth and migration, and the underlying mechanism responsible. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction was performed to evaluate miR-367 expression in uveal melanoma tissue samples and cell lines. A miR-367 mimic, miR-367 inhibitor, and neg..

MicroRNA-32 functions as a tumor suppressor and directly targets EZH2 in uveal melanoma

Authors: Y.B. Ma, D.W. Song, R.H. Nie and G.Y. Mu

MicroRNA-32 (miR-32) has been shown to be dysregulated in some human malignancies and this has been found to be correlated with tumor progression. However, its role in uveal melanoma formation and progression remains largely unknown. Thus, the aim of this study was to explore the expression and function of miR-32 in human uvea.. Read More»
