Abstract Background: Laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) is a challenging malignancy, and identifying effective treatment strategies reliable biomarkers crucial. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of combined neoadjuvant chemotherapy chemoradiotherapy on outcomes, as well assess potential SIK-1 diagnostic prognostic biomarker in LSCC. Methods: A total 108 patients with locally advanced LSCC were treated induction followed by definitive radiotherapy. Treatment responses assessed,...

<h3>Abstract</h3> Background/Aim: DNA methylation is the most studied epigenetic modification in cancer. Ten-eleven translocation enzymes (TET) catalyze oxidation of 5-methylcytosine (5-mC) to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) DNA. In current research, we aimed evaluate role 5-hmC and TET non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients their possible association with outcomes. Patients Methods: ELISA was used measure levels genomic qRT-PCR TET1, TET2, TET3 mRNAs expression NSCLC tissues paired...

Circulating long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA) are dysregulated in several diseases, especially cancers, e.g. non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Of specific notice this regard is growth arrest-specific 5 gene (lncRNA GAS5), which principally recognised as a tumor suppressor numerous cancers. Functionally, GAS5 involved arresting cellular and induction of apoptosis. We analysed plasma expression by qRT-PCR 100 patients with NSCLC before after tumour resection surgery. reported downregulation...

Breast cancer (BC) is among the most widespread malignant tumors in women. In current study, we evaluated role of miR-31 BC patients and its relation to different prognostic, clinical, pathological features.MiR-31 levels were determined by RT-PCR adjacent normal breast tissues from 100 patients. diagnosis was established through histopathological examinations. The expression estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone (PR), human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2) all using...

Abstract Lung cancer, primarily nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC), is a leading cause of cancer-related fatalities globally. Due to late detection, the 5-year survival rate for NSCLC remains low. Therefore, current research aimed assess diagnostic and prognostic value serum exosomal miR-874 levels in patients. This study involved 161 patients 80 control subjects. Blood samples were collected from all participants, MiR-874 quantified using quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain...
