Similarly, miR-193a(-3p) has been implicated in regulating proliferation of different tumor cell types, for example, by targeting c-kit in acute myeloid leukemia cells47, CCND1, ERBB4, Mcl-1, STMN1 and KRAS in ovarian cancer cells46 and ERBB4 in lung cancer cells48. This evidence concerns the gene MCL1 and neoplasm.
