HIF1A and neoplasm: Artificial overexpression of miR-199a-5p decreased cell proliferation, motility, and tumor angiogenesis and increased apoptosis in PCa cell liness PC-3 and DU145 by directly targeting the 3’-untranslated region (UTR) of HIF-1α mRNA, which reduced HIF-1α levels as well as downstream genes transactivated by HIF-1α (such as VEGF, CXCR4, BNIP3 and BCL-xL).
