Objective: This study was to investigate the roles of lncRNA associated competitive endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) network in the endometrial cancer (EC).
Methods: StarbaseV2.0 online software was used to predict the most probable lncRNAs which contain miR-205-5p binding site and are competent to interact with miR-205-5p. Then, lncRNAs which had decreased expression in EC compared with normal endometrium and conformed to the polyadenylated characteristics of lncRNAs were selected and then lncRNAs associated with miR-205-5p-PTEN network were identified.
Results: Two novel genes RP11-395G23.3 and LA16c-313D11.11 associated with endometrial cancer were identified and proved to be non-coding RNAs. They were more effective ceRNAs associated with the miR-205-5p-PTEN network.
Conclusion: Our results suggest that lncRNAs harbor MREs (miRNA response elements) and play important roles in the post-transcriptional regulation in EC.

Endometrial cancer [EC] is the fourth most common cancer in women in the United States. Stark racial disparities are present in EC outcomes in which Black women have significantly higher EC-related mortality than White women. The social and biologic factors that contribute to these disparities are complex, and may include racial differences in epigenetic landscapes.

Cancer is a global public health concern with increasing incidence and mortality rates, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) like the Pacific Island Countries and Territories (PICTs). Among the PICTs, Fiji faces a growing burden of cancer. This study aimed to analyze cancer incidence and mortality data in Fiji from 2010 to 2018 to identify trends and provide an update on the current cancer-related statistics in the Fiji Islands.

Gene fusions involving JAZF1 are a recurrent event in low grade endometrial stromal sarcoma, and have been more recently described in few instances of endometrial stromal sarcoma-like tumors in the genitourinary tract of men. In this article, we describe a previously unreported spindle cell sarcoma harboring an in-frame JAZF1::NUDT5 gene fusion, arising in the chest wall of a 51-year-old man. The tumor had unique morphologic features resembling both endometrial stromal sarcoma and endometrial stromal sarcoma-like tumors, consisting of a mixture of cytologically bland and pleomorphic spindle cells with brisk mitotic activity, within an alternating myxoid and fibrous stroma.

Endometrial cancer, termed uterine cancer, seriously affects female reproductive organs, and the analysis of histopathological images formed a golden standard for diagnosing this cancer. Sometimes, early detection of this disease is difficult because of the limited capability of modeling complicated relationships among histopathological images and their interpretations. Moreover, many previous methods do not effectively handle the cell appearance variations.
