Core 1 β 1,3-galactosyltransferase 1 (C1GALT1) acts as an important glycosyltransferase in the occurrence and development of tumor glycosylation. However, the regulatory mechanisms of C1GALT1 in thyroid cancer (TC) is still unclear. In this study, we discovered that the expression level of C1GALT1 was significantly increased in thyroid adenocarcinoma tissues and cell lines ( < 0.

Materials And Methods: Tumor samples were collected to screen gene mutations by next-generation sequencing, as well as the patients' baseline characteristics. The overall response to treatment with TKIs was evaluated based on interval computed tomography scans at each follow-up time point.
Lymphoma is the malignant tumor in the lymphatic system. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are non-coding RNAs with closed structure, which have been reported to perform critical functions in various tumor progressions. However, the role of circNSUN2 in lymphoma has not been well explored.

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been implicated in the development of breast cancer. Abnormal methylation has been associated with unfavorable breast cancer prognosis.

The CCAAT/enhancer binding protein β (C/EBPβ) and matrix metalloproteinase 3 (MMP3) are thought to play key roles in cancer invasion and metastasis. In this study, we aimed to detect whether C/EBPβ-mediated tumor invasion was dependent on MMP3.

Methods: Between April 2007 and December 2009, 20 consecutive patients with T1-3, N0-1 clinical stage rectal cancer preoperatively underwent a SLN procedure using submucosal (99m)Tc-phytate injection. All the patients underwent a total mesorectal excision.
