MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that post-transcriptionally regulate the expression of target mRNAs. MicroRNA genes themselves are regulated through epigenetic mechanisms, such as histone modifications and/or DNA methylation of CpG islands. Aberrant CpG island methylation patterns are frequently associated with cancer and thus research...
