چکیده
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide and in the US where it is the leading cause of cancer death in both males and females. The majority of cases present with metastatic disease that is currently not curable due to the lack of effective early detection and prevention measures and the inability of systemic therapies to cure metastatic disease. However, the recent decade has seen marked progress in molecular and immune therapies [1].

Bioinformatics Identification of miRNA-mRNA Regulatory Network Contributing Primary Lung Cancer
Introduction: In clinical practice, distinguishing invasive lung tumors from primary tumors remains a challenge. With recent advances in understanding biological alterations of tumorigenesis and molecular analytic technologies, using these molecular alterations can be sensitive and tumor-specific as biomarker for the stratification of patients. In this study, the molecular network of miRNA-mRNA...
متن کاملCo-Administration of Curcumin and Bromocriptine Nano-liposomes for Induction of Apoptosis in Lung Cancer Cells
Background: In recent years, nanotechnology with modern advances in the macromolecular design of nano-carriers has proved to be helpful in the development of drugs delivery systems. This research represents a novel co-administration of nano-vehicles, known as liposomes. Liposomes efficiently encapsulate curcumin and bromocriptine (BR) in a polymer structure, which results in enhanced aqueous so...

Circulating microRNAs have been recognized as promising biomarkers for the detection of lung cancer. The objective of this study was to evaluate miR-10b, miR-1 and, miR-30a in the plasma samples of lung cancer patients to confirm any possible relevance in the early detection of lung cancer. Plasma samples from 47 non-small-cell lung cancer patients and 41 cancer-free subjects were evaluated for...
