Overexpression of miR-136-3p significantly inhibited cell growth of LN-229 and U251 by decreasing expression of Cyclin A1 and PCNA (proliferating cell nuclear antigen), and it suppressed glioma cell migration by downregulating N-cadherin and elevating E-cadherin levels, and it also promotes glioma cell apoptosis by promoting Bcl2-associated X (Bax) expression but suppressing Bcl-2 expression. Here, BCL2 is linked to glioma.
