Previous studies have shown that miR-483-5p is located at the 11p15.5 locus of insulin-like growth factor (IGF2) gene and has been implicated in promoting cancer cell differentiation, invasion, metastasis, escape from apoptosis, drug resistance, and decreasing radiosensitivity in several solid cancers (Yang et al., 2017; Niture et al., 2023; Wang et al., 2018; Rattanapan et al., 2021; Tian et al., 2019). The gene discussed is IGF2; the disease is cancer.
