The dual-luciferase reporter assay verified that that miR-186 combined with the 3’-untranslated region (UTR) of ABCB1. MDR1 and GST-π mRNA and protein expression levels were downregulated after transfection with miR-186 but upregulated following anti-miR-186 transfection compared to the mock and negative control cancer cells; however, the MRP1 expression levels did not significantly differ among the groups. The gene discussed is GSTP1; the disease is cancer.
