Expression pattern of miRNA:

down-regulated

Validated targets of miRNA from the reference:

RAS

Validated targets of miRNA from TarBase:

NF2 : More...

Description:

Overexpression of let-7 can inhibit lung tumor cell line growth.the expression of the RAS oncogene is regulated by let-7, and RAS is significantly overexpressed in lung tumor samples strongly implicate let-7 as a tumor suppressor in lung tissue and suggests a possible mechanism.

 

 

Reference:

RAS is regulated by the let-7 microRNA family. | PMID:15766527
