lncRNA-UCA1 enhances cell proliferation through functioning as a ceRNA of Sox4 in esophageal cancer.
Esophageal cancer (EC) is one of the most common gastrointestinal cancers, which leads to the sixth ranking of cancer-related death. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play pivotal roles in many biological processes. lncRNA human urothelial carcinoma associated 1 (UCA1) is significantly upregulated and functions as an important oncogene in many types of human cancers. However, the role of UCA1 in E...
متن کاملaberrant methylation-mediated suppression of apaf1 in myelodysplastic syndrome
background: myelodysplastic syndromes (mdss) include a diverse group of clonal bone marrow disorders characterized by ineffective hematopoiesis and pancytopenia.it was found that down regulation of apaf1, a putative tumor suppressor gene (tsg),leads to resistance to chemotherapy and disease development in some cancers. in this study, we investigated the relation of apaf1 methylation status with...
متن کاملCirculating tumor cells and aberrant methylation as tumor markers in patients with esophageal cancer.
BACKGROUND This study was designed to compare the detection rates of conventional tumor markers with two molecular diagnostic approaches on blood samples from patients with esophageal squamous cell cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS Preoperative blood samples were obtained from 44 esophageal cancer patients and were subjected to CEA-specific reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR)...
متن کاملAberrant methylation as a main mechanism of TSGs silencing in PTC.
In the present study the role of tumour suppressor genes (TSGs) hypermethylation and genetic instability of LOH/MSI type in thyroid tumorigenesis was assessed. Expression, methylation status and presence of LOH/MSI were analyzed for 8 TSGs selected from imprinted (IR) and non-imprinted (NIR) chromosomal regions in papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTCs) and nodular goitres (NGs). The results show t...
متن کاملa contrastive study of rhetorical functions of citation in iranian and international elt scopus journals
writing an academic article requires the researchers to provide support for their works by learning how to cite the works of others. various studies regarding the analysis of citation in m.a theses have been done, while little work has been done on comparison of citations among elt scopus journal articles, and so the dearth of research in this area demands for further investigation into citatio...
