miRNA-204-5p acts as tumor suppressor to influence the invasion and migration of astrocytoma by targeting ezrin and is downregulated by DNA methylation

microRNAs (miRNAs), through their regulation of the expression and activity of numerous proteins, are involved in almost all cellular processes. As a consequence, dysregulation of miRNA expression is closely associated with the development and progression of cancers. Recently, DNA methylation has be...
