Abstract:
MicroRNAs (miRNAs)can influence the proliferation,apoptosis,invasion and metastasis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC)cells by signal transduction,epithelial-mesenchymal transi-tion,angiogenesis and other regulating mechanisms.Specific serum miRNAs can serve as novel diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers of ESCC.Recent studies have indicated that miRNAs can improve the radiation sensitivi-ty and even reverse multi-drug resistance of ESCC,holding great clinical value.
