MicroRNA-511 Inhibits Cellular Proliferation and Invasion in Colorectal Cancer by Directly Targeting Hepatoma-Derived Growth Factor.

Dysregulated microRNA (miRNA) expression is involved in the occurrence and development of colorectal cancer (CRC) through the regulation of various important physiological events. Hence, miRNAs may be used as effective targets for CRC treatment; however, this hypothesis warrants further investigation. miRNA-511 (miR-511) plays vital roles in the progression of different tumor types.
