Here, using microarray and RNA-Seq–based gene expression profiling and ChIP-Seq analyses of breast cancer cells, we observed that the serum- and glucocorticoid-regulated kinase gene (SGK1) and the tumor metastasis–suppressor gene N-Myc downstream regulated gene 1 (NDRG1) are up-regulated and that the microRNAs miR-29a and miR-101-1 targeting the 3′-UTR of SGK1 are down-regulated in response to progesterone. Here, NDRG1 is linked to neoplasm.
