Ubiquitin-specific protease 17 (USP17), a novel member of deubiquitinase, is reported to play essential roles in several solid tumors. However, the expression and function of USP17 in breast cancer tumorigenesis remains ambiguity. Here we found that the mRNA level of USP17 was lower in breast cancer tissues than normal tissues.

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) has the highest mortality rate among patients with brain tumors, and radiotherapy forms an important part of its treatment. Thus, there is an urgent requirement to elucidate the mechanisms conferring GBM progression and radioresistance. In the present study, it was identified that antisense transcript of hypoxia‑inducible factor‑1α (AHIF) was significantly upregulated in GBM cancerous tissues, as well as in radioresistant GBM cells.

Temozolomide (TMZ), as a kind of alkylating agent, is widely utilized for the treatment of glioblastoma (GBM). However, temozolomide resistance (TR) often develops quickly and results in tumor recurrence and poor outcome. Recent advances have demonstrated that miRNAs exert critical roles in chemoresistance.

Gliomas are the most common type of primary malignancy of the central nervous system. The identification of mutations in the gene encoding isocitrate dehydrogenase‑1 (IDH1) represents a key area of investigation in studies on glioma. The IDH1R132H mutation is a heterozygous point mutation, which affects the amino acid arginine at position 132, however, the metabolic importance of this mutation in tumor cell growth remains to be elucidated.
