abstract：:Increasing evidence suggests that microRNAs (miRNAs) play a critical role in tumorigenesis. Decreased expression of miR‑382 has been observed in various types of cancers. However, the biological function of miRNA-382 in ovarian cancer is still largely unknown. Here, we found miR‑382 was downregulated in human ovarian ...
