Molecular strategies to reduce unnecessary repeat prostate biopsies of men with elevated serum PSA

Karl H Pang
TL;DR: FDA approved Prostate Cancer gene 3 (PCA3), N6-methyladenosine (m6A) and m6A have evolving roles in cancer and may function well as biomarkers.

MicroRNAs as Key Regulators of Ovarian Cancers.

TL;DR: This review focuses on microRNAs that are dysregulated in ovarian carcinomas, their effect on the components of the tumor microenvironment, and the correlation of their heterogeneous expression profiles with disease severity and prognosis in patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Altérations moléculaires au cours de la carcinogenèse urothéliale vésicale

TL;DR: A review of different genetic and epigenetic alterations in bladder cancer, their potential role as theranostic markers in clinical oncology and new targeted therapies according to the concept of personalized medicine is proposed.

Urothelial Bladder Cancer Urinary Biomarkers.

TL;DR: Urinary biomarkers have the potential to improve bladder cancer diagnosis, the efficiency and also the cost-effectiveness of follow up and it is likely that in the future, urinary biomarker testing will be used selectively in a personalized manner to try and improve prognostication or reduce the necessity for invasive cystoscopy in patients understanding the limits of the test.

MicroRNAs: Target Recognition and Regulatory Functions

TL;DR: The current understanding of miRNA target recognition in animals is outlined and the widespread impact of miRNAs on both the expression and evolution of protein-coding genes is discussed.

A microRNA polycistron as a potential human oncogene

TL;DR: It is found that the levels of the primary or mature microRNAs derived from the mir-17–92 locus are often substantially increased in human B-cell lymphomas, and the cluster is implicate as a potential human oncogene.

Mammalian microRNAs predominantly act to decrease target mRNA levels

TL;DR: Results show that changes in mRNA levels closely reflect the impact of miRNAs on gene expression and indicate that destabilization of target mRNAs is the predominant reason for reduced protein output.

Mammalian microRNAs predominantly act to decrease target mRNA levels

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used ribosome profiling to measure the overall effects on protein production and compare these to simultaneously measured effects on mRNA levels, showing that changes in mRNA levels closely reflect the impact of miRNAs on gene expression and indicate that destabilization of target mRNAs is the predominant reason for reduced protein output.
