miR-625-3p regulates oxaliplatin resistance by targeting MAP2K6-p38 signalling in human colorectal adenocarcinoma cells

Oxaliplatin resistance in colorectal cancers is a major clinical problem, and predictive markers are urgently needed. Here, the authors show that miR-625-3pexpression reduces the sensitivity of colorectal cancer cells to oxaliplatin by targeting the kinase MAP2K6, an activator of the MAPK14 pathway.
