MiR-140-3p suppressed cell growth and invasion by downregulating the expression of ATP8A1 in non-small cell lung cancer

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) as a class of small noncoding RNA molecules regulate the expression of targeted gene. The dysregulation of microRNAs is reported to be involved in carcinogenesis and tumor progression. Here, we identified miR-140-3p as a downregulated microRNA in most cancer tissues including lung cancer tissues, compared with their normal counterparts. MiR-140-3p was observed to perform its tumor suppressor function via its inhibition on cell...
