Target genes of miRNA-519a co-operatively regulate tamoxifen resistance. Inhibiting individual (a) and combinations (b) of the TSGs using siRNAs in WT cells promotes resistance to tamoxifen after 72 h. Results are shown as an average of three biological and three technical replicates, with significance levels explained in Figure 1. (c) Random survival forests (RSF) analysis of 632 (d) and 586 breast cancer patients who had received hormone therapy (HT) 30 reveals a significant correlation between survival and expression of target genes.
