Lung cancer risk in never-smokers: a population-based case-control study of epidemiologic risk factors.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Breast cancer is the most common cancer type in female. As microRNAs play vital role in breast cancer, this study aimed to explore the molecular mechanism and clinical value of miR-21 in breast cancer. METHODS:qRT-PCR was performed to detect miR-21 levels in plasma of 127 healthy controls, 82 benign breast ...
