Abstract This study was aimed to investigate the function and mechanism of microRNA-200c (miR-200c) in the progression of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). A total of 76 patients diagnosed as having NSCLC were enrolled in this study. The expression level of miR-200c in NSCLC tissues and cell lines was investigated using the quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) method. We found that the expression of miR- 200c was significantly reduced in NSCLC tissues and cell lines compared with normal lung tissues and the human bronchial epithelial cell line. Overexpression of miR-200c using the miR-200c mimic significantly… More >

Abstract Tet methylcytosine dioxygenase 2 (TET2) acts as an antioncogene that is investigated in different cancers. But the effects of TET2 in renal cell cancer (RCC) is still known little. Here, quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), Western blot, and immunofluorescence were performed to exam gene and protein expression. Cell proliferation was measured using Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8). Transwell assay was performed to detect cell metastasis viability. Flow cytometry was performed to analyze the cell cycle and cell apoptosis. The effects of TET2 on RCC growth in vivo was analyzed using a mouse xenograft model.We found that TET2 More >
