Abstract:
MicroRNA,known as micro-RNA or miRNA,is a class of small non-coding RNA whose ma-ture products is ～22 nucleotides long.It negatively regulates gene expression at the post-transcriptional lev-el.More and more studies confirm the important role of miRNA in carcinogenesis and tumor development by reg-ulating cell apoptosis,and the research focuses on tumor-associated miRNA in tumor cell apoptosis may bring widest perspective on treatment and diagnosis of tumor in the future.
