Transforming growth factor-beta and cancer: a love-hate relationship?

abstract：:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in the carcinogenesis of cervical cancer. However, the expression and underlying mechanisms of miRNA in cervical cancer progression remain unclear. In the present study, our data showed that the expression of miR-138-5p was significantly downregulated in cervical cancer tissues,...
