Description:

frequent and marked overexpression, with occasional gene amplification, of clustered miRNAs (miR-17-92) within intron 3 of the C13orf 25 gene at 13q31.3 in lung cancers, especially examples with small-cell lung cancer histology.The authors further showed the stimulatory activity of this miRNA cluster in lung cancer cell growth.
