Simultaneous downregulation of miR-21 and upregulation of miR-7 has anti-tumor efficacy

Abstract Dysregulation of miRNA expression has been implicated in cancer. Numerous strategies have been explored to modulate miR but sub-optimal delivery and inability to concurrently target multiple pathways involved in tumor progression have limited their efficacy. In this study, we explored the p...
