Renal cell carcinoma is the most common type of primary renal cancer, and clear cell carcinoma is the most common subtype, accounting for approximately 70% of all adult renal cell carcinoma cases. At the time of diagnosis, many patients already have metastatic manifestations. Cutaneous metastasis of renal clear cell carcinoma is very rare and usually represents a poor prognosis, mostly affecting the head and neck.

For advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with epidermal growth factor receptor () mutations, tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been approved as the standard therapy and shown clinical benefits. However, the emergence of drug resistance is inevitable. Tumor heterogeneity was often observed by imaging method to evaluate the progression of primary and metastatic lesions.

Background: Abnormal expression of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) has been shown to be associated with the pathogenesis of cancers, including colorectal cancer (CRC). It has been reported that LINC00022 is highly expressed in some typs of cancer and its overexpression indicates poor prognosis. The function of LINC00022 in CRC progression remains unclear and is mainly investigated in the present study.

The function of M-Phase Phosphoprotein 9 (MPHOSPH9) has not been investigated in gastric cancer yet. In the present study, the public cancer databases Oncomine and TCGA were analyzed, and MPHOSPH9 was found upregulated in gastric cancer tumor tissues. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was also carried out to further confirm the results, and IHC analysis showed MPHOSPH9 was elevated in tumor tissues compared with the paracancerous tissues.
