Clinical and biological significance of miR-193a-3p targeted KRAS in colorectal cancer pathogenesis

This study was to investigate the expression pattern, mechanisms and clinicopathological implications of miR-193a-3p in colorectal cancer. Fresh frozen tissues from 70 matched colorectal adenocarciomas and the adjacent non-neoplastic mucosae were prospectively collected. Two colorectal cancer cell lines (SW480 and SW48) and a non-neoplastic colon cell line (FHC) were also used. The expression levels of miR193a-3p in the cells and tissues were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction.
