TXNRD1 and breast cancer: Moreover, in vitro exposure to oxidative stress using H2O2 induces miR-500a-5p overexpression and downregulation of the oxidative stress targets TXNRD1 and NFE2L2. Finally, expression of several of the identified miR-500a-5p targets related to oxidative stress, including TXNRD1, was associated with ER+ breast cancer survival in multiple datasets.
