A miR-192-EGR1-HOXB9 regulatory network controls the angiogenic switch in cancer
The formation of blood vessels in tumours, angiogenesis, is a promising target for therapy. Here, the authors show that microRNA192 has anti-angiogenic functions and negatively regulates EGR1 and HOXB9, and that delivery of this microRNA to tumours in vivocan reduce angiogenesis and tumour growth.
