Type of Tumor Source Function References
Colorectal cancer (CRC) Serum and plasma MiR-486-5p promotes the proliferation and migration of CRC cells by activating the signal pathways of pleomorphic adenomatoid gene 2 (PLAGL2), insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) and β-catenin in vivo and in vitro. [74]

to inhibit antitumor response

lymph node and block anti-PD-L1 antibodies
