MicroRNA-141 suppresses prostate cancer stem cells and metastasis by targeting a cohort of pro-metastasis genes

MicroRNAs have important roles in regulating tumor development, progression and metastasis. Here, the authors demonstrate the tumor-suppressive functions of miRNA141 in prostate cancer stem cells mediated by directly targeting CD44, Rho GTPase protein family members, and EZH2.
