Open AccessMiR-186 inhibited aerobic glycolysis in gastric cancer via HIF-1α regulation
Deregulation of microRNAs in human malignancies has been well documented, among which microRNA-186 (miR-186) has an antiproliferative role in some carcinomas. Here we demonstrate that low expression of miR-186...
