MicroRNAs miR-9-3 and miR-193a have recently been found to be hypermethylated in a variety of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells and primary human tumors. The objectives of this study were to investigate the role of demethylation of miR-9-3 and miR-193a genes in regulating proliferation and apoptosis in NSCLCs, and to decipher the potential mechanisms underlying the properties.
