From the perspective of mechanism, miR-197-3p could inhibit AKT/mTOR phosphorylation activation, inhibit an activated pathway of AKT/mTOR, target Heat Shock 70-kDa Protein 5(HSPA5) related to endoplasmic reticulum homeostasis, inhibit HSPA5-mediated autophagy, and reverse the radioresistance of NPC. The gene discussed is HSPA5; the disease is nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
