The microRNA-424/503 cluster: A master regulator of tumorigenesis and tumor progression with paradoxical roles in cancer.

abstract：:We investigated the molecular mechanisms involved in the anti-proliferative activity exerted by conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) on the estrogen unresponsive MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cell line. The effects on cell proliferation, cell cycle progression and induction of apoptosis were examined. CLA caused the reduct...
