Development and Implementation of a Tissue Specific MicroRNA Prediction Tool for Identifying Targets of the Tumor Suppressor microRNA 17-3p
A unique computational approach was undertaken to identify targets of miR-17-3p that impart an oncogenic potential to the cells of the prostate. Utilizing this approach, we identified insulin growth factor receptor 1 (IGF1R) as a potential target of miR-17-3p. IGF1R imparts an oncogenic approach to...
