While the underlying mechanisms controlling MST1 expression remain poorly defined, emerging evidence suggests that post‐transcriptional regulations, including the actions of microRNAs, may be critical. One potential regulatory molecule is MIR3910-1, which is hypothesized to modulate MST1 levels and thus impact the progression of HCC."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n\n"}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nMIR3910-1 is proposed to act as a post-transcriptional regulator that might bind directly to MST1 mRNA, affecting its stability or translation efficiency.
