miR-129b suppresses cell proliferation in the human lung cancer cell lines A549 and H1299
Authors: L. Zheng, Y.X. Qi, S. Liu, M.L. Shi and W.P. Yang
Lung cancer is one of the most prevalent malignant tumors, and is one of the primary causes of cancer-associated deaths. In 2002, an estimated 1.18 million lung cancer-associated deaths were recorded, accounting for 18% of cancer-related deaths and 2% of total mortality. Despite the great progress that has been made in lung ca.. Read More»

Characterization and effects of miR-21 expression in esophageal cancer
Authors: S.-W. Wen, Y.-F. Zhang, Y. Li, Z.-X. Liu, H.-L. Lv, Z.-H. Li, Y.-Z. Xu, Y.-G. Zhu and Z.-Q. Tian
The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of miR-21 in esophageal cancer and the impact of miR-21 on apoptosis, invasion, and the expression of target genes in esophageal cancer cells. Fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis was used to detect the expression of miR-21 in human esophageal tissues, adjacent tissues, and an.. Read More»

Effects of stathmin 1 silencing by siRNA on sensitivity of esophageal cancer cells Eca-109 to paclitaxel
Authors: H.W. Zhu, D. Jiang, Z.Y. Xie, M.H. Zhou, D.Y. Sun and Y.G. Zhao
We investigated the effects of stathmin 1 (STMN1) silencing by small interfering (siRNA) on the sensitivity of esophageal cancer cells Eca-109 to paclitaxel. STMN1 siRNA was transiently transfected into Eca-109 cells. The effects of transfection were detected by quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blotting. The effects of STMN1 silencing by.. Read More»
