MicroRNA-302a enhances 5-fluorouracil-induced cell death in human colon cancer cells.

abstract：:Exogenous overexpression of hRFI, originally isolated in our laboratory, inhibits not only death receptor-mediated apoptosis but also the mitochondrial apoptosis induced by several chemotherapeutic agents including 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). Recently, it has become clear that hRFI targets and degradates caspase-8 and -10 ...
