MiR-125a-3p, miR-138-5p (commonly known as miR-138), miR-139-3p, miR-503-5p and miR-744-5p (commonly known as miR-744) were shortlisted based on their predicted binding to conserved sites on both the human and mouse MYC CDS (Supplementary Table S1), as well as their downregulation in CRC (Supplementary Fig. S1c) and HCC (Supplementary Fig. S1d). Here, MYC is linked to hepatocellular carcinoma.
