Background: We evaluated the prognostic value of m6A-related long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD).
Methods: The expression levels of lncRNAs and mRNAs in LUAD and normal adjacent tissues from The Cancer Genome Atlas dataset were analyzed using the limma package. m6A enzyme-related differentially expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs were identified and used to construct a regulatory network.
Introduction: Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy has been proven to be a highly efficacious treatment for colorectal adenocarcinoma (COAD). However, it is still unclear how to identify those who might benefit the most from ICI therapy. Hypoxia facilitates the progression of the tumor from different aspects, including proliferation, metabolism, angiogenesis, and migration, and improves resistance to ICI.

Tracking the information of tumor progression and conducting a related dynamic prognosis model are necessary for KIRC. It is crucial to identify hypoxia-immune-related genes and construct a prognostic model due to immune interaction and the influence of hypoxia in the prognosis of patients with KIRC.

A total of 68 breast cancer patients with diffuse liver metastasis were randomly divided into Group A (semi-hepatic alternating radiotherapy) and Group B (semi-hepatic sequential radiotherapy). In Group A (semi-hepatic sequential radiotherapy), the liver was divided into the first semi-liver and second semi-liver and alternatively treated with semi-hepatic intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT).

In this study, we assessed the role of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) small nucleolar RNA host gene 1 (SNHG1) in OC to gain further insight into mechanisms that contribute to its aggressiveness. We analyzed the correlation between SNHG1, miR-454 and zinc finger E-box-binding homeobox 1 (ZEB1) using a dual-luciferase reporter assay.

Background: Type Ⅲ and Ⅳ portal vein tumor thrombi (PVTT) cannot be removed through surgery, and no effective therapeutic procedure is available. Type Ⅲ/Ⅳ PVTT can be downstage to type I/II PVTT by using Radiotherapy, and can further be can be removed surgically. Thus, radiotherapy may be an effective treatment for type Ⅲ/Ⅳ PVTT.

Immune infiltration was associated with the survival time of patients with tumors. C-C chemokine ligand 5 (CCL5) can promote the malignant process of tumor and be related to infiltration immune cells in some cancers, but not reported in KIRC.

Background: G Protein-coupled Receptor 4 (GPR4) has been reported to play essential roles in regulating the proliferation, migration and angiogenesis of vascular endothelial cells. GPR4 is also suggested to play significant roles in the growth and angiogenesis of ovarian cancer.
Objective: To explore the functions of GPR4 and Transcription Factor 7 (TCF7) in ovarian cancer.
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are key regulators or a range of diseases and chronic conditions such as cancers, but how they function in the context of ovarian cancer (OC) is poorly understood. The Coding-Potential Assessment Tool was used to assess the likely protein-coding potential of SNHG7. SNHG7 expression was elevated in ovarian tumour tissues measured by qRT-PCR.
