@article{Miano2015, abstract = {The crosstalk between microRNAs (miRNAs) and other epigenetic factors may lead to novel hypotheses about carcinogenesis identifying new targets for research. Since a single miRNA can regulate multiple downstream target genes, its altered expression may potentially be a sensitive biomarker to detect early malignant transformation and improve diagnosis and prognosis. In the current study, we used a genome-wide approach to test the hypothesis that altered methylation of miRNA encoding genes may be related to dietary and lifestyle factors and may be associated with deregulated mature miRNA expression ultimately leading to cancer.}, author = {Miano, Valentina and \underline{Ferrero, G.} and Reineri, Stefania and Caizzi, Livia and Annaratone, Laura and Ricci, Laura and Cutrupi, Santina and Castellano, Isabella and Cordero, Francesca and De Bortoli, Michele}, journal = {Oncotarget}, doi = {doi: 10.18632/oncotarget.6420}, file = {}, issn = {}, journal = {Oncotarget}, keywords = {miRNA}, month = {Nov}, number = {3}, pages = {3201-16}, pmid = {}, title = {{Luminal long non-coding RNAs regulated by Estrogen Receptor alpha in a ligand-independent manner show functional roles in breast cancer.}}, url = {http://www.pnas.org/content/111/13/4892.short}, volume = {7}, year = {2015} }
