VIM and neoplasm: Previously, miR-378 has been studied in the context of cell survival, colony formation and tumor growth through direct inhibition of vimentin (VIM).73VIM expresses during the astroglial specification and it was proved that by modulating VIM and astroglial population, neurogenesis has been significantly increased.66, 74 VPA treatment increases miR-378 and represses VIM in this study and further to examine the effect of miR-378 expression, we performed transient knockdown of miR-378.
