Differences in BRAF gene mutation frequency and thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR) protein expression in thyroid tissues were detected to investigate their association with local tissue invasion and cervical lymph node metastasis potential of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC). The BRAF gene mutation frequency and TSHR expression in P...

The aim of the present study was to determine the function of microRNA-153 (miR-153) in the viability of nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) cells and determine the underlying molecular mechanism. The expression of miR-153 in patients with NPC was markedly decreased compared with that in paracarcinoma tissue. miR-153 upregulation observably decreased cell ...

The eye is a rare site for disseminated malignancies; nevertheless, several tumors may metastasize to ocular structures. Few cases of urothelial and bladder cancer with eye involvement have been described in the literature thus far. The rarity of metastatic ocular localization implies an accurate differential diagnosis among the possible primary tu...

Osteosarcoma is the most common primary malignant bone tumor type in children and adolescents under 20 years of age. Biological characteristics include invasiveness, metastasis, abnormal differentiation and loss of contact inhibition. microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in the transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation of target mRNAs. Previou...
