    Oncologie, Vol.24, No.4, pp. 613-648, 2022, DOI:10.32604/oncologie.2022.027545

    Abstract The incidence and mortality of lung cancer rank top three of all cancers worldwide. Accounting for 85% of the total number of lung cancer, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is an important factor endangering human health. Recently, targeted therapies against driver mutations and epigenetic alterations have made encouraging advances that benefit NSCLC patients. Druggable driver mutations, which mainly occur in EGFR, KRAS, MET, HER2, ALK, ROS1, RET and BRAF, have been identified in more than a quarter of NSCLC patients. A series of highly selective mutant targeting inhibitors, such as EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors and KRAS inhibitors, have been well… More >

    RUI ZHOU#, JIANYANG XU#, LINGWEI WANG*, JIANXIN LI*

    Oncology Research, Vol.29, No.6, pp. 411-423, 2021, DOI:10.32604/or.2022.026236

    Abstract Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) act as key regulators controlling complex cellular behaviors in nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We investigated the expression of lncRNA PRRT3 antisense RNA 1 (PRRT3-AS1) in paired samples of NSCLC and adjacent normal tissues from a patient cohort in our hospital using real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and found that it was significantly higher in NSCLC tissue than in normal tissue, consistent with The Cancer Genome Atlas database. Furthermore, functional investigation revealed that lncRNA PRRT3-AS1 depletion inhibited NSCLC-cell proliferation, colony formation, invasion, and migration, whereas its overexpression exerted the opposite effects. Moreover, PRRT3-AS1… More >

    Oncology Research, Vol.29, No.6, pp. 401-409, 2021, DOI:10.32604/or.2022.025262

    Abstract It has been certified that GABPB1-AS1 is aberrantly expressed and plays as a vital role in some kinds of cancers. However, its expression pattern and functions in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are still largely unknown. This study aims to assess GABPB1-AS1 expression and biological roles in NSCLC. The expression of GABPB1-AS1 was detected in NSCLC specimens and adjacent normal specimens. CCK8 and Transwell assays were performed to evaluate the effects of GABPB1-AS1 on NSCLC cell proliferation, migration and invasion. Bioinformatics tools and luciferase reporter assays were applied to predict and verify GABPB1-AS1’s direct targets. The results revealed that GABPB1-AS1… More >

    Abstract Background: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), caused by abnormal gene drive, may have primary drug resistance after treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs). Therefore, we explore whether the primary drug-resistant NSCLC treated with EGFR-TKI is related to the miR-21/Sonic Hedgehog (SHH)/PI3K/AKT pathway. Methods: The patients from our hospital who meet the AJCC TNM staging (7th edition) stage IIIB and stage IV NSCLC were selected in this case study. Thereafter, the treatment response of EGFR-TKIs was evaluated according to the solid tumor efficacy evaluation standard (version 1.1). The patients were divided into the EGFR-TKIs primary drug resistance group (EGFR-TKIs-Primary-R) and the… More >

    Jiangtao Liu*, Yanli Jia*, Lijuan Jia*, Tingting Li, Lei Yang, Gongwen Zhang

    Oncology Research, Vol.27, No.2, pp. 269-279, 2019, DOI:10.3727/096504018X15215019227688

    Abstract MicroRNAs are essential regulators of cancer-associated genes at the posttranscriptional level, and their expression is altered in cancer tissues. Herein we sought to identify the regulation of miR-615-3p in NSCLC progression and its mechanism. miR-615-3p expression was significantly downregulated in NSCLC tissue compared to control normal tissue. Exogenous overexpression of miR-615-3p inhibited the growth and metastasis of NSCLC cells. In addition, the in vivo mouse xenograft model showed that overexpression of miR- 615-3p inhibited NSCLC growth and lung metastasis, whereas decreased expression of miR-615-3p caused an opposite outcome. Furthermore, we revealed that insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) expression was negatively… More >

    Liyan Dou*1, Kaiyu Han†1, Mochao Xiao*, Fuzhen Lv

    Oncology Research, Vol.27, No.2, pp. 261-268, 2019, DOI:10.3727/096504018X15219188894056

    Abstract miR-223-5p has been demonstrated to regulate the development and progression of various cancers, such as hepatocellular carcinoma, breast cancer, and gastric carcinoma. However, the role of miR-223-5p in nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) requires further investigation. In this study, we found that the expression of miR-223-5p was significantly downregulated in NSCLC tissues and cell lines. Moreover, the expression level of miR-223-5p is negatively correlated with the malignance of NSCLC. We found that overexpression of miR-223-5p remarkably suppressed the proliferation of NSCLC cells in vitro and in vivo. miR-223-5p overexpression also led to reduced migration and invasion in NSCLC cells. Mechanistically,… More >

    Dandan Wu*1, Jun Liu†1, Jianliang Chen*, Haiyan He*, Hang Ma*, Xuedong Lv*

    Oncology Research, Vol.27, No.2, pp. 227-235, 2019, DOI:10.3727/096504018X15213089759999

    Abstract MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been reported to be involved in many human cancers and tumor progression. The dysregulation of miR-449a is found in many types of malignancies and is associated with tumor growth, migration, and invasion. However, its expression and function in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) still remains unclear. In our study, miR-449a was found to be downregulated in both NSCLC tissues and cell lines, and low miR-449a expression was obviously associated with tumor differentiation, TMN stage, and poor overall survival (OS). Moreover, we demonstrated that miR-449a could inhibit tumor proliferation, migration, and invasion in NSCLC. We also confirmed that… More >
