Abstract
miRNA 128 has been found to induce cell death in both glioblastoma multiforme and myeloid leukemia cell lines. Results showed that increased levels of miRNA 128 led to higher cell death rates. Future studies of other cancer cell lines could pave the way for miRNA as a therapeutic tool in treating cancer.
