The possible correlation between miR-762, Hippo signaling pathway, TWIST1, and SMAD3 in lung cancer and chronic inflammatory diseases.

MicroRNAs are small RNA molecules that have a significant role in translational repression and gene silencing through binding to downstream target mRNAs. MiR-762 can stimulate the proliferation and metastasis of various types of cancer. Hippo pathway is one of the pathways that regulate tissue development and carcinogenesis.

The Importance of Log Ferritin and Transferrin /Log Ferritin in Differentiating Iron Deficiency Anemia from Anemia of Chronic Disease in Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients.

The most common types of anemia in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are iron deficiency anemia (IDA) and anemia of chronic disease (ACD).The differentiation between both is important and challenging. Our objective is to select the most accurate method that differentiates IDA from ACD in RA patients.
