Elevated expression of microRNAs 155, 203, 210 and 222 in pancreatic tumors is associated with poorer survival

TL;DR: This study provides the first evidence for an oncogenic activity ofmiR‐155, miR‐203, miM‐210 and miR-222 in the development of pancreatic cancer as has been reported for other tumor types.
Journal ArticleDOI

Omeprazole Inhibits Proliferation and Modulates Autophagy in Pancreatic Cancer Cells

TL;DR: It is hypothesised that omeprazole interacts with the regulatory functions of the vATPase without inhibiting its pump function and a modulation of the lysosomal transport pathway and autophagy is caused in pancreatic cancer cells leading to programmed cell death.
Journal ArticleDOI

Increased survivin transcript levels: an independent negative predictor of survival in soft tissue sarcoma patients.

TL;DR: This work investigates the quantitative expression of survivin mRNA by a sensitive TaqMan™‐based RT‐PCR assay in tissue samples from 94 patients with soft tissue sarcomas (STS) and finds an inverse correlation between the level of Survivin mRNA and the rate of overall survival.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genomic imbalances of 7p and 17q in malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors are clinically relevant.

TL;DR: In sporadic MPNSTs from patients with Recklinghausen's disease, the most frequent gains were narrowed down predominantly to 5p, 6, 8q, and 20q, whereas in MPN STs from Patients with Recklingshausen’s disease, there was most often a gain in 7q,8q, 15Q, and 17q.
