Association between cancer concealment and the survival of the patients with non-small cell lung carcinoma.

To explore the relationship between cancer awareness and the survival of the patients with non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC).
 Methods: A total of 865 NSCLC patients were screened for the risk factors, including age, gender, address, tumor/lymph nodes/metastasis (TNM) stage, and cancer awareness. Survival of the patients was calculated by Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression analysis.

MicroRNA-153 functions as a tumor suppressor in gastric cancer via targeting Kruppel-like factor 5.

Various microRNAs (miRs) have been demonstrated to serve important roles in gastric cancer (GC). miR-153 in particular has been reported to serve a suppressive role in GC; however, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. In the present study Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blot analysis were used to examine the mRNA and protein expression of Kruppel-like factor 5.

Suppressive role of microRNA-29 in hepatocellular carcinoma via targeting IGF2BP1.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary liver cancer, ranking as the second leading cause of male cancer death worldwide. MicroRNA-29 (miR-29) has been demonstrated to act as a tumor suppressor in HCC. However, the regulatory mechanism of miR-29 underlying HCC growth and metastasis still remains obscure.
