MicroRNA-100 promotes migration and invasion through mammalian target of rapamycin in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is the predominant histologic subtype of esophageal cancer and is characterized by a high mortality rate and geographic differences in incidence. microRNAs (miRNAs) are small, non-coding RNAs that play important roles in the regulation of genes associated with cancer development and progression. In the present study, we demonstrated that microRNA-100 (miR‑100) demonstrated markedly lower expression in...
