miR-217 is a highly conserved non-coding RNA that regulates various tumors, with both tumor suppressor and potential oncomiR functions. Recent studies have shown that miR-217 plays an important role in tumor progression.
As highly conserved non-coding RNAs of approximately 18-24 nucleotides, microRNAs (miRNAs) regulate the expression of target genes. Multiple studies have demonstrated that miRNAs participate in the regulation of human cancer. MircoRNA-217 (miR-217) participates in the regulation of various tumors by specifically binding target genes and post-transcriptional regulation. In recent years, there have been numerous reports about miR-217 in tumor progression. MiR-217 is known mainly as a tumor suppressor, although some studies have shown that it functions as an oncomiR. Here, we review the current research related to miR-217, including its role in tumor progression and the molecular mechanisms.
