ZEB1 and lung cancer: To further substantiate the regulatory effects of miR-200 on these lung cancer prognosticmarkers, SCC patient samples (n=57) (23,24) werescreened to investigate the correlation between the miR-200 family and the mRNA expressionof its predicted target genes as well as ZEB1 and ZEB2.The results showed that all the downregulated genes had a significant negative correlationwith the corresponding miR-200 family member in SCC patient tumor tissues, exceptATRX/miR-200a and HFE/miR-200a (Table III).
