Identification of microRNAs inhibiting TGF-β-induced IL-11 production in bone metastatic breast cancer cells.

Development of bone metastases is dependent on the cancer cell-bone cell interactions in the bone microenvironment. Transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) is released from bone during osteoclastic bone resorption and induces production of osteolytic factors, such as interleukin 11 (IL-11), in breast c...
