N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA modification is the most abundant method in mRNA, and it plays an important role occurrence development of many cancers. This paper mainly discusses m6A methylation regulators lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) to identify novel prognostic biomarkers. The gene expression data 19 LUAD patients its relevant clinical parameters were extracted from Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) da...

Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Overall 5-year survival is approximately 10-15% and despite curative intent surgery, treatment failure is primarily due to recurrent disease. Conventional prognostic markers are unable to determine which patients with completely resected disease within each stage group are likely to relapse. To identify a gene signature associated...

Purpose TP53 signature has a robust predictive performance for prognosis in early-stage breast cancer, but the experiment that reported this relied on public microarray data and fresh-frozen samples. Before TP53 signature can be used in a clinical setting, a simple and low-cost diagnostic system using formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples is needed. New treatments based on the biologi...

Accumulating evidence has shown that aberrant lncRNA expression plays an oncogenic or tumor-suppressive role in the tumorigenesis of laryngeal cancer. However, the prognostic roles of lncRNAs in laryngeal cancer recurrence are still poorly understood. In this study, we obtained lncRNA expression profiles of 109 patients with laryngeal cancer by mining previously published gene expression microa...

A major challenge for successful immunotherapy against glioma is the identification and characterization of validated targets. We have taken a bioinformatics approach towards understanding the biological context of IL-13 receptor α2 (IL13Rα2) expression in brain tumors, and its functional significance for patient survival. Querying multiple gene expression databases, we show that IL13Rα2 expres...

PURPOSE Cancer progression is mediated by processes that are also important in wound repair. As a result, cancers have been conceptualized as overhealing wounds or "wounds that do not heal," and gene expression signatures reflective of wound repair have shown value as predictors of breast cancer survival. Despite the widespread acknowledgment of commonalities between host responses to wounds an...

Mutations in the BRAF oncogene occur in the majority of melanomas, leading to the activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway and the transcription of downstream effectors. As BRAF and its effectors could be good melanoma therapy targets, defining the repertoire of genes that are differentially regulated because of BRAF mutational activation is an important objective. Towards thi...

Ion channels are important regulators in cell proliferation, migration, and apoptosis. The malfunction and/or aberrant expression of ion channels may disrupt these important biological processes and influence cancer progression. In this study, we investigate the expression pattern of ion channel genes in glioma. We designate 18 ion channel genes that are differentially expressed in high-grade g...
