Expression pattern of miRNA:

down-regulated

Validated targets of miRNA from the reference:

Ras,HMGA2

Validated targets of miRNA from TarBase:

Description:

Ectopic expression of let-7g in K-Ras(G12D)-expressing murine lung cancer cells induced both cell cycle arrest and cell death. In tumor xenografts, the authors observed significant growth reduction of both murine and human non-small cell lung tumors when overexpression of let-7g was induced from lentiviral vectors. In let-7g expressing tumors, reductions in Ras family and HMGA2 protein levels were detected.
