MicroRNA molecules (miRNAs) have important roles in regulating cell behavior. In addition, their expression levels can be used in tumor classification. The expression of miRNAs has been to be regulated by the androgen receptor (AR), which seems to play an interesting role in the tumorigenic process of breast cancer. We hypothesized that AR may control the behavior of breast cancer cells via modulating the expression of miRNAs. Using PCR arrays, we examined the differential exp...
