  • MicroRNAs: Key Regulators of Oncogenesis

    Edited by Sadegh Babashah ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Aberrant expression and function of microRNAs (miRNAs) in cancer have added a new layer of complexity to the understanding of development and progression of the disease state. It has been demonstrated that miRNAs have a crucial function in oncogenesis by regulating cell proliferation and apoptosis as oncogenes or tumor suppressors. The expression signatures of miRNAs provide exciting opportunities ... Read more
