Fig. 7From: Downregulation of long non-coding RNA MAFG-AS1 represses tumorigenesis of colorectal cancer cells through the microRNA-149-3p-dependent inhibition of HOXB8Mechanistic investigations indicated that lncRNA MAFG-AS1 could specifically bind to miR-149-3p and negatively regulate miR-149-3p expression to upregulate its downstream gene HOXB8, thereby promoting the proliferation, migration, invasion and tumorigenesis of CRC cells while inhibiting apoptosisBack to article page
