Role of microRNA-26b in glioma development and its mediated regulation on EphA2.

<h4>Background</h4>MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short, non-coding RNAs that regulate the expression of multiple target genes. Deregulation of miRNAs is common in human tumorigenesis. Low level expression of miR-26b has been found in glioma cells. However, its underlying mechanism of action has...
