Profiling of Autophagy-Associated microRNAs in the Osteosarcoma Cell Line of U2OS

Background: Autophagy is a cellular process that plays role in the destruction of proteins and organelles. It has been shown that impaired autophagic flux triggers canceration, infectious disease, and neurodegenerative diseases. It has been suggested that tumor formation is inhibited by autophagy that reduces oxidative stress and recycles damaged organelles. microRNAs are 17–25 bp in length, single-stranded, and non-coding small RNAs that play...
