School of Mechanical Engineering, Shandong University, Jinan 250061, Shandong, China.

Automatic retinal layer segmentation with medical images, such as optical coherence tomography (OCT) images, serves as an important tool for diagnosing ophthalmic diseases. However, it is challenging to achieve accurate segmentation due to low contrast and blood flow noises presented in the images. In addition, the algorithm should be light-weight to be deployed for practical clinical applications.

Clinical Significance and Pathogenic Mechanisms of Long Non-Coding RNA TRPM2-AS in Cancers.

Technol Cancer Res Treat

January 2025

School of Basic Medical Sciences, Chengdu Medical College, 783 Xindu Avenue, Chengdu, 610500, Sichuan, China.

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are known to play vital roles in human cancers. LncRNA TRPM2-AS has been found to be upregulated in various types of cancers. The elevated levels of TRPM2-AS are associated with important clinicopathological parameters such as tumor size, tumor stage, and lymph node metastasis, revealing that TRPM2-AS could be a potential target for cancer diagnosis, prognosis and treatment.
