abstract：:Aberrant microRNA (miRNA) expression is involved in tumorigenesis of several cancers, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Furthermore, expression of some miRNAs has been shown to be under epigenetic regulation. However, less is known regarding the role of miRNA methylation in NSCLC development or clinical ou...
