Exosomal miR-1304-3p promotes breast cancer progression in African Americans by activating cancer-associated adipocytes

The molecular mechanisms explaining racial disparity in breast cancer mortality are not completely elucidated. Here, the authors show that an African-associated SNP in American breast cancer patients, leads to higher levels of microRNA miR-1304-3p which promotes cancer by increasing lipids availabil...
