Let-7a induces metabolic reprogramming in breast cancer cells via targeting mitochondrial encoded ND4

Abstract Background and objectives MicroRNA (miRNA) that translocate from the nucleus to mitochondria are referred to as mitochondrial microRNA (mitomiR). Albeit mitomiRs have been shown to modulate gene expression, their functional impact within mitochondria is unknown. The main objective of this s...
