| Research Abstract |
Micro RNA (miRNA) is considered the responsibility of growth and invasion in some cancer cells. However, the function of miRNA is still unclear. We investigated miRNA expression and the function in prostate cancer. We used the databases of miRNA and the genome abnormality sites in prostate cancer for the screening of the target miRNA. Further, we examined the expression of miRNA in prostate cancer tissues and prostate cancer cell lines using quantitative PCR. As the result, we found miR-30d. The inhibitor for miR-30d was reduced the growth of prostate cancer cell lines. Thus, these data was suggested that miR-30d had an important role for prostate cancer cell growth.
