Based on the results of the present study and since AXL and mTOR genes play a critical role in variety of human cancers, suppression of these genes by their targeting miRNAs, especially miR-34a and miR-144, can be propose as a new strategy for MTC management. However, more studies are needed to approve the hypothesis.
