Enhancement of Breast Cancer Cell Aggressiveness by lncRNA and its Mir-675 Derivative: Insight into Shared and Different Actions.

Breast cancer is a major public health problem and the leading world cause of women death by cancer. Both the recurrence and mortality of breast cancer are mainly caused by the formation of metastasis. The long non-coding RNA , the precursor of miR-675, is involved in breast cancer development.

Regulation of Human Breast Cancer by the Long Non-Coding RNA H19.

Breast cancer is one of the most common causes of cancer related deaths in women. Despite the progress in early detection and use of new therapeutic targets associated with development of novel therapeutic options, breast cancer remains a major problem in public health. Indeed, even if the survival rate has improved for breast cancer patients, the number of recurrences within five years and the five-year relative survival rate in patients with metastasis remain dramatic.
