miR-6883 downregulates HIF1α in colorectal and breast cancer cells.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) and breast cancer (BC) are deadly diseases that rank as the second and fourth leading causes of cancer-related deaths, respectively. We have previously shown that miR-6883 targets CDK4/6 and that palbociclib-mediated CDK4/6 inhibition destabilizes HIF1α. We hypothesize that miR-6883 downregulates HIF1α in CRC and BC cells.
