چکیده

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Raf kinase inhibitory protein (RKIP) belongs to the phosphatidylethanolamine binding protein (PEBP) family. RKIP is an endogenous inhibitor of the Raf-1-MEK1/2-ERK1/2 signaling pathway, NFkappaB signaling pathway and G protein coupled receptors signaling pathway. The aim of this study is to explore the expression of RKIP in lung squamous cell carcinoma, and the relationship between RKIP expression and clinical pathology of lung squamous cell carcinoma. METHODS The expression of RKIP mRNA was detected in 56 lung squamous cell carcinoma tissues and adjacent cancer tissues by RT-PCR. The expression level of RKIP protein was detected by Western blot. The positive rates of RKIP expression in cancer tissues and adjacent cancer tissues were analyzed. RESULTS RKIP mRNA positive expression rate in cancer tissues was significantly lower than that in adjacent cancer tissues (P < 0.05). The positive rate of RKIP mRNA expression in the cancer tissues with lymph node metastasis was significantly lower than that without lymph node metastasis (P < 0.05). RKIP mRNA expression has no remarkable correlation with age, sex, tumor differentiation and size (P > 0.05). RKIP protein expression in the cancer tissues was significantly lower than that in adjacent cancer tissues (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The deficiency of RKIP expression is positively correlated with carcinogenesis and invasion metastasis of lung squamous cell carcinoma.

CircRNA_0109291 regulates cell growth and migration in oral squamous cell carcinoma and its clinical significance

Objective(s): Circular RNAs (circRNAs), a new class of non-coding RNAs, have emerged as important regulators during tumorigenesis. However, the functions of circRNAs have not been completely clarified in the progression of cancers. In our study, a novel circRNA hsa_circ_0109291 was investigated in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) tissues and cell lines. Materials and Methods: The expression ...

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...

To detect the expression of RKIP, E-cadherin and NF-kB p65 in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and study their correlations. Steptavidin-peroxidase (S-P) method was employed to detect the expressions of RKIP, E-cadherin and NF-kB p65 in ESCC tissues from 77 cases and paracancerous tissues from 77 cases. The correlations between their expressions and clinicopathological indices and betw...
