miR-144-3p Induces Cell Cycle Arrest and Apoptosis in Pancreatic Cancer Cells by Targeting Proline-Rich Protein 11 Expression via the Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase Signaling Pathway

microRNAs (miRNAs) have been proved to be involved in many events of tumor development and progression, including cell proliferation, cell apoptosis, and cell cycle arrest. However, the potential role of miR-144-3p in pancreatic cancer (PC) remains elusive. In this study, we demonstrated that miR-144-3p was decreased in PC tissues and PANC-1 cells, whereas proline-rich protein 11 (PRR11) was remarkably increased. miR-144-3p mimics were...
