We aimed to study the regulatory roles and mechanism of circular nuclear factor IX (circNFIX) in cancer growth and stemness properties of ovarian cancer (OC). CircNFIX and SH3RF3 levels in OC tissues and cells were tested by quantitative real-time PCR. RNase R treatment quantified circNFIX RNA stability.

Ovarian cancer (OC) is a gynecological cancer with high mortality. OC-derived exosomal circRNAs can regulate angiogenesis. This study aims to explore the role and mechanism of exosomal circRNA nuclear factor I X (CircNFIX) derived from OC cells in angiogenesis.

The 12-year-old patient was admitted to the hospital on September 19, 2019 for "vaginal bleeding for 2 months and pelvic mass to be diagnosed". The patient and her family explicitly denied any previous history of diethylstilbestrol exposure. After admission, relevant examinations were conducted and hysteroscopic exploration was performed under general anesthesia.

Objective: To analyze clinicopathologic features and risk factors associated with the recurrence and prognosis of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC).
Methods: 710 EOC patients treated at the West China University Second Hospital from Jan. 2006 to Jun.

Objective: To investigate the expression of AIB1 (amplified in breast cancer 1) protein in epithelial ovarian cancer cells and to analyze the relationship between AIB1 protein and the apoptosis modulated proteins: P53 and Bcl-2.
Methods: The expressions of AIB1, P53 and Bcl-2 proteins in 24 normal ovaries, 24 benign ovarian tumors, 18 borderline ovarian tumors and 69 epithelial ovarian cancers were examined with immunohistochemical method SP. The expressions of estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) were also examined to reveal their relation with AIB1 expression.

Objectives: To examine p53 codon 72 polymorphism in cervical cancers and its correlation with HPV16/18 E6.
Methods: Cervical specimens were taken from 81 patients with cervical squamous cancer, 18 patients with cervical adenocarcinoma, 88 patients with CIN II - III and 60 patients without cancers. PCR was used to examine the p53 genotypes and the expression of HPV16 and 18 E6.

Objective: To evaluate the impact of fertility-saving surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy on survival and fertility of young patients with ovarian malignant tumors.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was done on 38 patients with ovarian malignant germ cell tumors, 22 patients with malignant epithelial tumors and 4 patients with sexual cord mesenchymal tumors receiving conservative treatments. Outcomes such as menstruation and reproduction ability were assessed.
