1. MicroRNA-Mediated Migration of Colon Cancer Cells
Abstract : Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second most common cancer in women and third most common cancer in men worldwide. The cause of the majority of death related to CRC is believed to be the migration of cancer cells to distant organs which is known as cancer metastasis. READ MORE

2. Genetic Analyses of Tumor Progression in Colorectal Cancer
Abstract : Colorectal tumors are responsible for more than 600 000 deaths per year worldwide and thereby constitute the second most common cause of cancer related mortality. Early detection is related to improved prognosis and identification of genetic biomarkers would meliorate available diagnostic tools. READ MORE

3. MicroRNA and energy metabolism in gastrointestinal tumors
Abstract : MicroRNAs (miRNAs) contribute to cancer development and drug resistance via cellular biological processes, including metabolic pathways. Energy metabolism plays a significant role to maintain tumor proliferation in gastrointestinal (GI) cancers. However, the roles of miRNAs and energy metabolism in GI cancers are not fully understood.

4. Exploring the genome-wide impact of estrogen receptor alpha and estrogen receptor beta in breast and colon cancer cells
Abstract : Estrogen signaling is involved in the development and progression of breast cancer and is implicated to be protective in colon cancer. Estrogenic actions are conveyed through transcriptional regulation by ligand stimulated estrogen receptors (ERα and ERβ). READ MORE

5. Human cytomegalovirus : from novel strain, miRNAs to interplay with breast cancer
Abstract : The prevalence of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) ranges from 40% to 100% worldwide. A primary HCMV infection results in a lifelong latent or persistent infection. READ MORE
