MicroRNAs move into cancer research

Article Abstract:

The gene-silencing technique known as RNA interference is used by many cancer researchers to effectively mute the expression of genes that drive malignancies. Scientists have known for many years that microRNAs, which are 21- to -25- nucleotide-long regulatory molecules, influence normal growth and development in plants and animals.
