Expression Profile of miRNA-17-3p and miRNA-17-5p Genes in Gastric Cancer Patients with Helicobacter pylori Infection

ConclusionConsidering our results, the high expression of miRNA-17-3p and miRNA-17-5p has a direct relationship with increased cell proliferation, inhibition of tumor cell apoptosis and tumor angiogenesis, in addition to miRNAs play an important role as biomarkers in helping for detection of the patient byH. pylori infection to become cancerous. Therefore, it can be used to make specific diagnostic kits and to treat patients.
