MicroRNA-215 functions as a tumor suppressor and directly targets ZEB2 in human pancreatic cancer

Q. W. Li, Zhou, T., Wang, F., Jiang, M., Liu, C. B., Zhang, K. R., Zhou, Q., Tian, Z., and Hu, K. W., MicroRNA-215 functions as a tumor suppressor and directly targets ZEB2 in human pancreatic cancer, vol. 14, pp. 16133-16145, 2015.

It has been shown that microRNA-215 (miR-215) is dysregulated in several human malignancies, and this correlates with tumor progression. However, its expression and function in pancreatic cancer is still unclear. The aim of this study was to explore the effects of miR-215 on pancreatic cancer formation and progression. Using quantitative RT-PCR, we detected miR-215 expression in pancreatic cancer cell lines and primary tumor tissues. The association of miR-215 expression with clinicopathological factors and prognosis was also analyzed.
