A novel procedure for protein extraction from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues
(Wiley, 2011-05-18)
[Abstract] Most of the archived pathological specimens in hospitals are kept as formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues (FFPE) for long-term preservation. Up to now, these samples are only used for immunohistochemistry ...
Circulating microRNAs: molecular microsensors in gastrointestinal cancer
(MPDI, 2012-07-09)
[Abstract] MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small molecules of single strand non-coding RNAs, which are able to regulate gene expression. miRNAs have been involved in multiple cellular processes, such as proliferation, apoptosis and ...
Circulating miR-200c and miR-141 and outcomes in patients with breast cancer
(BioMed Central, 2015)
[Abstract]
Background. The deregulation of microRNAs in both tumours and blood has led to the search for microRNAs to indicate the presence of cancer and predict prognosis. We hypothesize the deregulation of miR-200c/miR-141 ...
Role of the microtubule-targeting drug vinflunine on cell-cell adhesions in bladder epithelial tumour cells
(BioMed Central, 2014-07-10)
[Abstract]
Background. Vinflunine (VFL) is a microtubule-targeting drug that suppresses microtubule dynamics, showing anti-metastatic properties both in vitro and in living cancer cells. An increasing body of evidence ...
miR-203 regulates cell proliferation through Its influence on Hakai expression
(PLoS, 2012-12-20)
Gene expression is potently regulated through the action of microRNAs (miRNAs). Here, we present evidence of a miRNA regulating Hakai protein. Hakai was discovered as an E3 ubiquitin-ligase that mediates the posttranslational ...
Hakai reduces cell-substratum adhesion and increases epithelial cell invasion
(BioMed Central, 2011-11-03)
[Abstract]
Background. The dynamic regulation of cell-cell adhesions is crucial for developmental processes, including tissue formation, differentiation and motility. Adherens junctions are important components of the ...
Circulating levels of GDF15, MMP7 and miR-200c as a poor prognostic signature in gastric cancer
(Future Science, 2014-06-20)
[Abstract] Aim: To analyze GDF15 and MMP7 serum levels as diagnostic biomarkers in gastric cancer (GC) patients. The prognostic value of GDF15 and MMP7 serum levels in combination with miR-200c blood expression was also ...
Circulating miR-200c as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for gastric cancer
(BioMed Central, 2012-09-06)
[Abstract]
Background. MicroRNAs are aberrantly expressed and correlate with tumourigenesis and the progression of solid tumours. The miR-200 family determines the epithelial phenotype of cancer cells and regulates ...
