Association of miR-760 with cancer: An overview.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNA molecules of around 22 nucleotides in length. They are crucially involved in the post transcriptional regulation and thus play a significant role in the modulation of different diseases. Several studies have suggested that miRNA expression is dysregulated in various cancers through different mechanisms and the dysregulated miRNA in return affects different cancer hallmarks including cell proliferation, cell death suppression, metastasis and angiogenesis.
