Tan IIA targets miR-125b/gasdermin D (GSDMD) and miR-145/caspase 1, which induces apoptosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cells (HK1 cells) and cervical carcinoma cells (HeLa cells), respectively (Tong et al., 2020; Wang et al., 2021c). The gene discussed is CASP1; the disease is nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
