Effects of miR-340 on hepatocellular carcinoma by targeting the DcR3 gene

In hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), miR-340 plays a vital role in the regulation of tumor occurrence and deterioration, while DcR3 gene is involved in cancer cell proliferation and apoptosis. This study analyzed miR-340 in the serum of patients with HCC and healthy controls. Then, miR-340, DcR3, TGF-β1 and Smad2 expression were measured in HCC tissues and adjacent parts. Relationship between miR-340 and DcR3 was verified. Effects of miR-340 on human HepG2 cell proliferation and apoptosis were explored.
