Abstract Background Lung cancer is one of the leading causes of death in Europe
and the western world. At present, diagnosis of lung cancer very often happens
late in the course of the disease since inexpensive, non-invasive and
sufficiently sensitive and specific screening methods are not available. Even
though the CT diagnostic methods are good, it must be assured that "screening

The claudin gene family: expression in normal and neoplastic tissues Tập 6 Số 1 - 2006
Kyle J. Hewitt, Rachana Agarwal, Patrice J. Morin
AbstractBackgroundThe claudin (CLDN) genes encode a family of proteins important
in tight junction formation and function. Recently, it has become apparent
thatCLDNgene expression is frequently altered in several human cancers. However,
the exact patterns ofCLDNexpression in various cancers is unknown, as only a
limited number ofCLDNgenes have been investigated in a few tumors.MethodsWe

Long non-coding RNA MEG3 inhibits NSCLC cells proliferation and induces apoptosis by affecting p53 expression Tập 13 Số 1 - 2013
Kaihua Lu, Wei Li, Xianghua Li, Ming Sun, Meiling Zhang, Weiqin Wu, Weiping Xie, Yayi Hou
Abstract Background Long non-coding RNAs play an important role in
tumorigenesis, hence, identification of cancer-associated lncRNAs and
investigation of their biological functions and molecular mechanisms are
important for understanding the development and progression of cancer. Recently,
the downregulation of lncRNA MEG3 has been observed in various human cancers.
However, its role in non-small ... hiện toàn bộ
MicroRNA-221 and microRNA-222 regulate gastric carcinoma cell proliferation and radioresistance by targeting PTEN - 2010

Abstract Background MicroRNAs (miRNAs) can function as either oncogenes or tumor
suppressor genes via regulation of cell proliferation and/or apoptosis. MiR-221
and miR-222 were discovered to induce cell growth and cell cycle progression via
direct targeting of p27 and p57 in various human malignancies. However, the
roles of miR-221 and miR-222 have not been reported in human gastric cancer. In

Abstract Background Subclassification of ovarian carcinomas can be used to guide
treatment and determine prognosis. Germline and somatic mutations, loss of
heterozygosity (LOH), and epigenetic events such as promoter hypermethylation
can lead to decreased expression of BRCA1/2 in ovarian cancers. The mechanism of
BRCA1/2 loss is a potential method of subclassifying high grade serous
carcinomas. Me... hiện toàn bộ
