Evaluation of microRNA 196a expression in cervical carcinoma
Journal Title: Medpulse International Journal of Pathology - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Cervical carcinoma is the second most common cancer next to breast carcinoma in women and most leading cause of death in women in developing nations which compels the need of investigating the molecular mechanisms that aid its pathogenetic complexity and a search for a molecular intervention that modifies the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of the disease. microRNAs are a group of gene regulators whose expression in the primary tumor correlates with the behavior of the tumor. In this study we evaluated and analyzed the possible role of microRNA 196a which may be consistently associated with carcinoma cervix possibly playing a major role in tumorigenesis aiding the diagnosis and prediction of the clinical outcome.
