Background: Breast cancer (BC) is a serious health threat to the patients. The present work explored the mechanism of miR-301b-3p and transforming growth factor-beta receptor 2 (TGFBR2 ) in affecting BC progression.
Methods: The miR-301b-3p-inhibitor and si-TGFBR2 solution were added to the DEME/F12 medium to culture the BC and normal breast epithelial cell lines to prepare negative control, miR-301b-3p-IN and miR-301b-3p-IN+si-TGFBR2 in the two types of cell lines.
Objective: To investigate O-6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) gene promoter methylation in humoral tissue as biomarker for lung cancer diagnosis by pooling relevant open published data.
Methods: Clinical studies relevant to MGMT gene promoter methylation and lung cancer were systematic electronic searched in the databases of Medline, EMBASE, Ovid, Web of Science, and CNKI. Data of true positive (tp), false positive (fp), false negative (fn), and true negative (tn) were extracted from the included studies and made combination.
Multiple primary malignant tumors (MPMTs) are rarely seen among the patients with malignant neoplasms. Moreover, the existence of five MPMTs in the same patient is an extremely rare phenomenon. In this case, a 42-year-old male patient developed five metachronous MPMTs within 16 years and the duration between each malignant tumor shortened with the progression of the disease.
