Ali et al. revealed that butyrate can also induce expression of miR-139 and miR-542 in CRC cells, which act as suppressor miRNAs through silencing of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4 gamma 2 (EIF4G2) and baculoviral inhibitor of apoptosis repeat-containing 5 (BIRC5, survivin), respectively [161]. This evidence concerns the gene EIF4G2 and colorectal carcinoma.
