MiR-374b-5p-FOXP1 feedback loop regulates cell migration, epithelial-mesenchymal transition and chemosensitivity in ovarian cancer.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important regulators in tumorigenesis and progression of multiple human cancers, including ovarian cancer (OC). As a member of miRNAs family, miR-374b-5p has been reported to be a tumor suppressive gene in human cancers. In this study, the lower expression of miR-374b-5p was identified in OC tissues and cell liens using quantitative real time PCR (qRT-PCR).
