Abstract:
Esophageal cancer is a common malignancy with a high incidence and a poor prognosis.MiR -21 is up-regulated in cancer tissues,blood and saliva of esophageal cancer patients.Its abnormal expression is closely related to the development of esophageal cancer.MiR-21 plays an important role in the regulation of tumor-related target genes,especially in the diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of esophageal cancer.
