Abstract
We found inflammatory cytokines to reduce the activities of miRNAs. In mice with colitis, activities of miRNAs are reduced; administration of an agent that increases miRNA function prevents colon tumor formation in these mice. This pathway might be targeted to prevent colon carcinogenesis in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases.
