Association of SNPs in miR-146a, miR-196a2, and miR-499 with the risk of endometrial/ovarian cancer
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small non-coding RNA molecules (containing N22 nucleotides), which function in RNA silencing and post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression [1]. miRNAs have been reported to play a key role in tumorigenesis [1], Some single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in...

Summary: | MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small non-coding RNA molecules (containing N22 nucleotides), which function in RNA silencing and post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression [1]. miRNAs have been reported to play a key role in tumorigenesis [1], Some single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in miRNA genes can influence the generation or function of miRNAs, and thereby possibly affect tumor growth and development. |
