Genetic variations in key microRNA processing genes and risk of head and neck cancer: a case-control study in Chinese population.

Genetic variations in key microRNA processing genes and risk of head and neck cancer: a case-control study in Chinese population.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been reported to play a key role in oncogenesis. Genetic variations in miRNA processing genes and miRNA binding sites may affect the biogenesis of miRNA and the miRNA-mRNA interactions, hence promoting tumorigenesis. In the present study, we hypothesized that potentially func...
