miR-24 decreased all apoptosis (ETV1, IGF1, BCL2 and CASP3) and cell cycle related genes (IGF1, PTGS1, BCL2, CASP3 and APC) (logFC ≤ –0.415) that were up-regulated in MDA-PCa-2b as compared to DU-145 (log(dMDA/DU) ≥ 0.585) (Supplementary Figure 3). Here, ETV1 is linked to posterior cortical atrophy.
