OBJECTIVE: Extra-cellular signal regulated kinase (ERK)/mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway is widely involved in cell proliferation and apoptosis. MAPK kinase 1 (MEK1) is the upstream protein kinase of ERK that can activate ERK/MAPK signaling pathway. microRNA-101 (MiR-101) down-regulation is found to be associated with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) pathogenesis. Bioinformatics analysis shows the complementary … Continue reading MiR-101 promotes nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell apoptosis through inhibiting Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK signaling pathway
