Identification of a novel oncogene, MMS22L, involved in lung and esophageal carcinogenesis.

Identification of a Novel Tumor-Binding Peptide for Lung Cancer Through in-vitro Panning

Tumor-targeted therapies are playing growing roles in cancer research. The exploitation of these powerful therapeutic modalities largely depends on the discovery of tumor-targeting ligands. Phage display has proven a promising high throughput screening tool for the identification of novel specific peptides with high binding affinity to cancer cells. In the present study, we describe the use of ...

Identification of p53 Gene Mutations among Iranian Patients Involved with Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma: the Efficiency of the Two Different Methods

Analyzing the Expression Level and Associated Clinical Characteristics of miRNA-138 in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma in Iranian Patients

Background: Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (ESCC) is the seventh most common and lethal malignancy worldwide with a high incidence in Iran. Esophageal cancer has a poor prognosis and low 5-years survival rate. Despite several studies on esophageal cancer, its underlying mechanism remains unclear. Therefore, it is significant to analyze the molecular factors involved in disease for introduci...

The Prevalence of P53 Mutations in Laryngeal Cancer in Kerman

Background &Aims: Laryngeal cancer is the second common cancer of respiratory tract, following the lung cancer. Carcinogenesis is a complex multistage process; molecular genetics has provided the evidence that activation of proto-oncogene and loss or inactivation of tumor suppressor genes (TSG) are involved in a large number of malignancies. One of the earliest significant tumor suppressor gene...
