SNAI2 and central nervous system cancer: Since the overexpression of hTERT induces OC cell invasion via up-regulating Slug expression [5], and the silencing of hTERT in glioma cells decreased cell proliferation by increasing the protein levels of Bax [21], we evaluated whether the modulation of hTERT levels by miR-532/miR-3064 affects the protein expressions of Slug, E-cadherin (a downstream target of Slug) and Bax in OC cells.
