miR-27b, miR-101, miR-128 and miR-206 have been shown to inhibit lymphangiogenesis and metastasis in a variety of human cancer cells, via the targeting of VEGF-C.27, 37, 38 This current study demonstrates that BDNF markedly inhibited the expression of miR-624-3p in human chondrosarcoma cells and specimens. The gene discussed is VEGFC; the disease is chondrosarcoma.
