Circular RNAs (circRNAs) appear to be significant modulators in various physiological processes. Recently, it is found that circRNA_101996 exerts important roles in various cancers. Our previous studies showed that circRNA_101996 promoted cervical cancer growth and metastasis by regulating miR-8075/TPX2.

Methods: A short hairpin (sh) RNA plasmid targeting Rac1 was constructed and transfected into HeLa cells.
Objective: To evaluate the clinical value of transvaginal elastography (TVES) in diagnosing cervical malignancies by detecting changes of tissue stiffness.
Methods: One hundred and ten consecutive patients with cervical lesions were enrolled. Pathological results were used as the gold standards.
Background: Nucleophosmin plays a critical role in embryonic development. This study aimed to examine the expression pattern of nucleophosmin in glandular epithelium of human endometrium during the menstrual cycle.
Methods: Endometrial tissues used for this study were obtained from 46 non-pregnant patients who underwent hysterectomy which had been performed to treat benign diseases.
