Function of miR-200a in proliferation and apoptosis of non-small cell lung cancer cells

Lung cancer is the most prevalent type of cancer worldwide and is the leading cause of cancer-associated cases of mortality in the USA and China. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for 80-85% of lung cancer cases. microRNAs (miRs) serve multiple roles in the pathogenesis of lung cancer. The current study investigated the lower level of miR-200a in tumor tissues compared with healthy tissue. Overexpression of miR-200a inhibited NSCLC...
