Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is one of the three leading neurodegenerative diseases worldwide. Gene expression profile studies play an important role in recognizing and preventing disease. Considering the inherent ability of biomarkers to diagnose and prognose the occurrence of a disease, with the aim of gene therapy and changing gene expression, it can be helped to treat it.

Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is the second most frequent cause of cancer-related death worldwide and the fourth most common malignancy. Despite significant improvements in patient survival over the past few decades, the prognosis for patients with GC remains dismal because of the high recurrence rate. In this comprehensive system biology and experimental investigation, we aimed to find new novel diagnostic biomarkers of GC through a regulatory RNA interaction network.

Breast cancer (BC) is one of the leading cancers in the world, which has become an increasing serious problem. In this context, reports demonstrate that some long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play significant regulatory roles in breast tumorigenesis and BC progression via various pathways and act as endogenous RNAs. Finding their dysregulation in cancer and evaluating their interaction with other molecules, such as short noncoding RNAs "microRNA (miRNAs)" as well as various genes, are the most important parts in cancer diagnostics.

Breast cancer as the second most common cancer worldwide tend to be experienced by Iranian women 10 years earlier with a peak incidence at the premenopausal stage. Genetic mutations of tumor suppressor gene has been shown to be related to early onset of breast cancer. It has been shown already that rs1625895 polymorphic site is related to glioma as well as lung cancer.

Department of Microbiology, Faculty of Biological Science, Islamic Azad University, Falavarjan Branch, Isfahan, Iran.

Background: Gastric cancer is one of the most significant reasons for cancer-related death. miR-146a is one of the dysregulated factors associated with gastric tumorigenesis. However, deregulation of this microRNA (miRNA) has become controversial.

Objectives: Albeit single nucleotide polymorphisms related to ESR1 gene have been studied, only a number of them have been reported to be associated with breast cancer risk. rs1062577 is one of the most recent microRNA-related ESR1 SNPs; however, no study has been conducted to investigate the significance this polymorphism in Iranian population. In this study, we aimed to investigate the frequency and also the association between rs1062577 and breast cancer.
