BACKGROUND: Aberrant N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification is linked to cancer development and progression. However, the role of YTH N6-methyladenosine RNA binding protein F2 (YTHDF2), an m6A 'reader protein', in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (N…

Infection with high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV), for example, with types 16 and 18, is closely associated with cervical cancer development, which continues to threaten women's health globally. Although HPV oncogenes have been recognized…

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is one of the most common malignancies worldwide. Emerging evidence has suggested that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play vital roles in various biological processes of cancers, such as cell proliferation…

Many types of cancers, including endometrial cancer, were found to have cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) overexpression. Because this enzyme belongs to the group of pro-inflammatory enzymes, so-called NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) …

OBJECTIVE: Uterine carcinosarcomas (UCSs) are aggressive rare tumors recognized as malignancies composed of metaplastic transformation of epithelial elements. Nay no comprehensive molecular classification has been applied to UCS to guide ta…

The purpose of this study was to test the effect of MK2206, an allosteric inhibitor of AKT, on the growth and invasion of patient-derived xenografts (PDX) of endometrial cancer. Three PDX lines, USC1 (uterine serous), EEC2 (endometrioid gra…

Sorafenib (Nexavar) is a multi-kinase inhibitor that was developed as an inhibitor of RAF-1, in the ERK1/2 pathway, but which was subsequently shown to inhibit class III tyrosine kinase receptors. (1) More recently regorafenib (Stivarga) ha…

ARID1A has emerged as a tumor suppressor gene, which is mutated in a broad spectrum of cancers, especially in those arising from ectopic or eutopic endometrium. As a subunit of SWI/SNF chromatin remodeler, ARID1A facilitates target-specific…

Inflammatory cells play important roles in progression of solid neoplasms including ovarian cancers. Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) contribute to angiogenesis and immune suppression by modulating microenvironment. Ovarian cancer develo…
