OSR1 suppresses acute myeloid leukaemia cell proliferation by inhibiting LGR5-mediated JNK signalling.

Odd-skipped related transcription factor 1 (OSR1) is implicated in various pathophysiologic processes, such as embryonic heart and urogenital formation, and functions as a tumour suppressor in diverse tumours. Regardless, the regulatory role and mechanism of OSR1 in acute myeloid leukaemia are scarce. Firstly, the CD34-positive blasts or the normal blasts were isolated from the plasma samples of acute myeloid leukaemia patients or healthy donors, respectively.

Plasma LUNX mRNA, a non-invasive specific biomarker for diagnosis and prognostic prediction of non-small cell lung cancer.

Lung cancer is the most common cancer worldwide. However, no specific biomarker has been found in diagnosis and evaluation of therapeutic efficacy for lung cancer. The human lung-specific X protein gene (LUNX) was recently identified with a feature of lung tissue specificity.
