MicroRNA-155-5p, Reduced by Curcumin-Re-Expressed Hypermethylated , Is a Molecular Biomarker for Cancer Risk in -methylation Carriers.

Constitutional -methylation is a cancer risk factor for breast (BC) and ovarian (OC) cancer. MiR-155, regulated by , is a multifunctional microRNA that plays a crucial role in the immune system. The present study assessed the modulation of miR-155-5p expression in peripheral white blood cells (WBCs) of BC and OC patients and cancer-free (CF) -methylation female carriers.
