The Role of microRNA-15A in the Development of Prostate Cancer – Effects on Cell Proliferation and Pro-Inflammatory Signalling

Worldwide prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death among men after lung cancer. MicroRNAs are non-coding, endogenous RNAs and they play a role in tumorigenesis, RNA silencing and post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. In this study we have investigated microRNA-15a im...
