The study revealed that MicroRNA-1911-3p targets mEAK-7 mRNA at 3’UTR and decreases mEAK-7 protein levels, leading to suppressed mTOR signaling, which was evidenced by significantly decreased mTOR-dependent S6 and 4E-BP1 phosphorylation in NSCLC cell lines. This evidence concerns the gene EIF4EBP1 and non-small cell lung carcinoma.
