Abstract

Because microRNAs regulate cancer cell differentiation, proliferation, survival and metastasis, manipulating microRNA function, either by mimicking or inhibiting miRNAs implicated in cancer, could provide a powerful therapeutic strategy to interfere with key pathways for cancer progression. This review will explore some of the opportunities and obstacles to harnessing microRNA biology for cancer therapy. ©2009 Landes Bioscience.
