    Abstract : Non-coding microRNAs (miRNAs) function as post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression by interacting with messenger RNA. Dysregulation of miRNAs has many possible consequences, including tumor-suppressive or -promoting ones, and restoring or preventing the effects of miRNA alteration has therapeutic potential.

    Abstract : Background: Metastatic spinal cord compression (MSCC) is a serious complication of cancer leading to demyelination and axonal damage of the spinal cord with a risk of para/tetraplegia. It is most common in patients with known cancer but may also be the initial manifestation of malignancy (IMM). READ MORE
