miR-520b Promotes Breast Cancer Stemness Through Hippo/YAP Signaling Pathway.

Introduction: The breast cancer stem cells contribute to the initiation, progression, recurrence, metastasis as well as resistance of breast cancer. However, the mechanisms underlying the maintenance of breast cancer stemness have not been fully understood.

Materials And Methods: TCGA and GEO data were used for measuring miR-520b expression in breast cancer tissues.
