ZEB1 and cancer: MiR-1236-3p was able to suppress cancer properties by targeting zinc finger E-box binding homeobox1 (ZEB1) in OvCa, while circCSPP1 was reported to sponge miR-1236-3p and suppress the silencing effect on ZEB1, thereby stimulating epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and cancer progression in OvCa [58, 59].
