Reportedly, up-regulated expression of miR-889 facilitates cell cycle progression in esophageal squamous cell cancer [47]; miR-889 promotes colorectal carcinoma cell growth via targeting DAB2IP [48]; miR-889-3p is high-expressed in OS cells and tissues, and miR-889-3p promotes OS cell proliferation by repressing MNDA expression [14]. The gene discussed is DAB2IP; the disease is esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
