Specifically, NAMPT mRNA is the target of miR-26b in colorectal cancer, miR-23b in melanoma, miR-381, miR-206, miR-494 and miR-154 in breast cancer cells, and miR-206 in pancreatic cancer (Bolandghamat Pour et al., 2019a; Bolandghamat Pour et al., 2019b; Ghorbanhosseini et al., 2019; Lv et al., 2020). This evidence concerns the gene NAMPT and breast cancer.
