Abstract:
Let-7 is one of the most widely studied in miRNAs at present. let-7 can inhibit cell proliferation, promote cell differentiation and apoptosis, etc. Reduced expression of let-7 in different human tumor tissues or cells is accompanied by the changes of its target genes expression, which suggests that let-7 is closely linked to cancer.
