(Carcinoma, Hepatocellular...) :
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether miR-26a, regulated by a human a-fetoprotein ( hAFP ) and human telomerase reverse transcriptase ( hTERT ) dual promoter, could be specifically expressed in liver tumor cells to suppress their growth and to clarify whether estrogen receptor-a ( ERa ) is regulated by miR-26a and involved in the HCC process

:
In cultured vascular smooth muscle cells ( VSMC ), E2-mediated upregulation of miR-203 is mediated by estrogen receptor-a ( but not estrogen receptor-ß ) via transcriptional upregulation of the primary miR
