MicroRNA‑10a‑5p suppresses cancer proliferation and division in human cervical cancer by targeting BDNF

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect and mechanism of microRNA (miR)‑10a‑5p in human cervical cancer. The expression level of miR‑10‑5p in cervical cancer lines was assessed using reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT‑qPCR). In cervical cancer HeLa and SiHa cells, miR‑10‑5p was ectopically overexpressed by lentiviral transduction. Brain‑derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) was then overexpressed in...
