Consistent with the reported function of these miRNAs in regulating cell proliferation and metastatic potential, target site mapping to genes associated with melanoma progression suggests that miR-17-5p, miR-19a-3p, miR-149-5p and miR-21 play a role in modulating cell response to TP53/RB1 activation and TGFβ/SMAD signaling pathways. The gene discussed is TP53; the disease is melanoma.
