c-Myc driven miR-17-92 expression has been shown to promote tumor angiogenesis [36], and inhibition of miR-17-5p and miR-20a induces apoptosis in lung cancer cells [70] and leads to induction of apoptosis, cellular senescence, and growth inhibition of thyroid cancer cells [45]. This evidence concerns the gene MYC and thyroid gland carcinoma.
