Physiologically achievable concentrations of genistein enhance telomerase activity in prostate cancer cells via the activation of STAT3.

abstract：:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNA molecules that are often located in genomic breakpoint regions and can act as oncogenes or tumor suppressor genes in human cancer. Our previous study showed that microRNA-423 (miR-423), which localized to the frequently amplified region of chromosome 17q11, was upregulated i...
