Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) severely threatens the health of people owing to its lethality. Nonetheless, the underlying mechanisms on LUAD development remain unclear to a great extent. This work aimed to probe the functions of miR-218-5p in LUAD. MiR-218-5p and endoplasmic reticulum oxidoreductase 1 alpha (ERO1A) were screened as differently downregulated and upregulated RNAs in LUAD, respectively, by bioinformatics analyses. The results of cell functional assays stated that enforced expression of miR-218-5p notably restrained cell viability,...
