AC104024.2/miR-30a-5p Axis Regulates Malignant Progression of Breast Cancer Through a Depression-Related Gene, MAP2K3

Background

Breast cancer (BC), a malignant tumor, is characterized by high incidence and poor prognosis among women worldwide. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) can regulate the initiation and progression of BC through competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) mechanisms. Despite depression being an important factor affecting patients with BC, the ceRNA regulatory network involving depression-related genes in BC remains unclear.
