Intervening Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer Progression by Cell Membrane Coated Platycodin D via Regulating Hsa-miR-1246/FUT9/GSK3β Pathway by Zheng S, Xie Z, Zhou Z, Wang S, Xin Y, Lin J, Cheng K, Lu T, Qi R, Guo Y

“…Furthermore, a homologous cell membrane-based PD delivery system was established to improve the biosafety and efficacy of PD in vivo.Results: Hsa-miR-1246 was upregulated by PD treatment, and functional experiments demonstrated that the miR-1246-mimic enhanced PD’s suppressive effects on NSCLC cell proliferation, colony formation, migration, and invasion, while the miR-1246-inhibitor abrogated these effects. …”
