miRNA-708 functions as a tumor suppressor in colorectal cancer by targeting ZEB1 through Akt/mTOR signaling pathway.

CONCLUSION: Taken together, these results indicate that miR-708 plays an important role in suppressing the development of CRC by directly targeting ZEB1 through AKT/mTOR signaling pathway, suggesting that miR-708 is a novel, effective therapeutic target for treating patients with CRC.
