Prognostic value of the MicroRNA regulators Dicer and Drosha in non-small-cell lung cancer: co-expression of Drosha and miR-126 predicts poor survival
BACKGROUND Dicer and Drosha are important enzymes for processing microRNAs. Recent studies have exhibited possible links between expression of different miRNAs, levels of miRNA processing enzymes, and cancer prognosis. We have investigated the prognostic impact of Dicer and Drosha and their correlation with miR-126 expression in a large cohort of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. We ...
متن کاملSurvival and Prognostic Factors in Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients in Turkey
Background: Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a highly aggressive tumor. Objective: To evaluate the survival and time to progression of patients with SCLC admitted to a chest disease center in Istanbul, Turkey. Methods: Based on the reports of a pulmonary oncology clinic, data regarding performance status (PS), clinical stage of disease, treatment, time to progression and survival of 67 patients...
متن کاملThe Effect of Time-dependent Prognostic Factors on Survival of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer using Bayesian Extended Cox Model
Abstract Background: Lung cancer is one of the most common cancers around the world. The aim of this study was to use Extended Cox Model (ECM) with Bayesian approach to survey the behavior of potential time-varying prognostic factors of Non-small cell lung cancer. Materials and Methods: Survival status of all 190 patients diagnosed with Non-Small Cell lung cancer referring to hospitals in ...
متن کاملRole of Dicer and Drosha for endothelial microRNA expression and angiogenesis.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that regulate gene expression by binding to the cellular transcript leading to translational repression or degradation of the target mRNA. Dicer and Drosha are the miRNA processing enzymes that are required for the maturation of miRNAs. Here, we investigated the role of Dicer and Drosha for angiogenesis. Endothelial cells were transfected with siRNA a...
متن کاملP2X7 mRNA expression in non-small cell lung cancer: MicroRNA regulation and prognostic value
The human P2X7 receptor is significant and exhibits several functions in neoplasia. At present, little is known with regard to its regulation. P2X7 expression may be regulated post-transcriptionally and putative microRNA (miRNA) binding sites are considered to be involved. The aim of this study was to determine whether miRNAs (miR-21, let-7 g and miR-205) regulate P2X7 mRNA stability. In additi...
