Dang et al. showed that miR-1207 has an extensive role in EMT by the direct regulation of key proteins such as Snail, Smad2, Smad3, Smad7, Vimentin and Zinc finger E-box-binding homeobox 1 (ZEB1), making it an important regulator of tumor invasion and metastasis. This evidence concerns the gene ZEB1 and neoplasm.
