abstract：:MicroRNAs have been reported to be closely related to the development of human lung cancers. However, the functions of microRNAs in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remain largely undefined. Here, we investigated the role of microRNA-193b (miR-193b) in NSCLC. Our data showed that miR-193b was markedly down-regulated...
