Overview

miR-217 is a microRNA that functions as a tumor suppressor and is notably downregulated in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). As a therapeutic candidate, miR-217 aims to restore normal microRNA levels to inhibit tumor cell proliferation and migration. It also plays a critical role in modulating the tumor microenvironment by preventing the transformation of pancreatic stellate cells (PSCs) into cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), thereby reducing fibrosis and enhancing the delivery and efficacy of chemotherapeutic agents like gemcitabine and paclitaxel. Research indicates that miR-217 overexpression significantly reduces the expression of CAF markers such as alpha-smooth muscle actin (SMA) and vimentin, which are associated with chemoresistance and poor prognosis in PDAC.
