APAF1 and ovarian cancer: Based on the above, we proposed the final effects of PTEN and APAF1 outweighed PIK3R3 when miR-186 at low concentration so as to increase the cisplatin sensitivity of ovarian cancer cells, while the final effects of PIK3R3 outweighed PTEN and APAF1 when miR-186 at high concentration so as to decrease the cisplatin sensitivity.
