BANCR and colorectal carcinoma: Subsequent luciferase assays revealed that miR-203 overexpression significantly decreased luciferase activity of WT-BANCR reporter, but had no effect on luciferase activity of Mu-BANCR reporter in LoVo and HCT116 cells (Fig. 5B and 5C), suggesting that BANCR could interact with miR-203 by putative binding sites in CRC cells.
