Abstract

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in diverse biological processes and are emerging as key regulators of tumorigenesis and tumor progression. Among the differentially expressed miRNAs in breast cancer, miR-125b was revealed to be deregulated and associated with poor prognosis and chemoresistance in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), but the mechanism is still unknown. In our study, we showed downregulated expression of miR-125b in TNBC tissues and decreased migration and invasion in miR-125b-expressing Hs578T cells. MAP2K7 was then detected to be a novel target of miR-125b, and downregulation of MAP2K7 by miR-125b was similar to transient knockdown of MAP2K7 which hindered epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of Hs578T cells. Upregulation of MAP2K7 in miR-125b-overexpressing Hs578T cells partly rescued the migration and invasion suppression of miR-125b. Furthermore, MAP2K7 was overexpressed in TNBC samples compared with normal tissues and negatively correlated with miR-125b expression. In light of these findings, miR-125b emerged as a tumor suppressor in TNBC by targeting MAP2K7 to inhibit EMT.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 10. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 09 August 2022.
All research outputs
#3,621,629
of 25,371,288 outputs
Outputs from OncoTargets and therapy
#131
of 3,016 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#55,494
of 311,861 outputs
Outputs of similar age from OncoTargets and therapy
#10
of 123 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,371,288 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 85th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,016 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.9. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 95% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 311,861 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 81% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 123 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 91% of its contemporaries.
