Background: Heterotopic tumor is a rare disease. Thus far, no cases of heterotopic cholangiocarcinoma have been reported in the world. Cholangiocarcinoma mainly metastasizes by direct invasion, and it can lead to liver metastasis in its advanced stage.

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are longer than 200 nucleotide transcripts, and are not translated into protein. The lncRNA linc00662 is overexpressed in lung cancer; however, its role in lung cancer is still unknown.

Methods: The expression levels of circLPAR3, microRNA-375 (miR-375), miR-433, and high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR).
Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer-associated mortality globally. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are transcripts with a length of >200 nucleotides, which are not translated into proteins. Growing evidence has indicated that certain lncRNAs are associated with various biological processes in cancer.

Heat shock proteins and their upstream heat shock factors are involved in the occurrence of cancer and have been widely researched. However, the role of heat shock factor 2 (HSF2) in lung cancer remains unclear.

In order to explore the association between cadherin 13 (CDH13) gene promoter methylation and lung carcinoma (LC) risk, we carried out a meta-analysis with searching of PubMed, Web of Science. Ultimately, 17 articles were identified and analysised by STATA 12.0 software.

Serine/threonine kinase 33 (STK33) is a novel protein that has attracted considerable interest in recent years. Previous research has revealed that STK33 expression plays a special role in cancer cell proliferation. However, the mechanisms of STK33 induction of cancer cells remain largely unknown.
