Quercetin displayed anti-cancer properties by opposing cell survival and enhancing apoptosis in NSCLC cells by increased miR-34a-5p and downregulation of a long noncoding RNA small nucleolar RNA host gene 7 (SNHG7) [136], while in oral squamous cell carcinoma Cal-27 cells quercetin inhibited cell proliferation and metastasis via accumulation of miR-1254 and subsequent downregulation of CD36 [137], and suppressed proliferation and MMP-9 and -2 levels via a miR-16/homeobox A10 (HOXA10) axis increase [138]. This evidence concerns the gene HOXA10 and cancer.
