Overexpression of MET in Tca8113 and SCC9 cells reduced the tumor-suppressive effects, which was induced by miR-802 overexpression. CONCLUSIONS MiR-802 suppresses the malignant biological behavior of OSCC by targeting proto-oncogene MET. This work provides a new potential molecular target for treating OSCC.OBJECTIVE Previous studies have found that IPO5 is a cancer-promoting gene. However, the role of IPO5 in esophageal cancer has not been reported. This study aims to investigate the expression characteristics of IPO5 in esophageal cancer, and to further analyze its relationship with clinical parameters and prognosis of esophageal cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS Quantitative Real Time-Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR) was performed to examine the expression of matrix metalloproteinase 7 (MMP7) in 45 pairs of tumor tissue specimens and adjacent normal ones collected from esophageal cancer patients. The correlation between IPO5 expression and clinical indicators and prognosis of esophageal cancer patients was analyzed. Meanwhile, IPO5 expression in esophageal cancer cell lines was also detected using qRT-PCR. In addition, the influence of IPO5 on esophageal cancer cell functions was analyzed using cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) and 5-Ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) assays. Finally, Dual-Luciferase reporter assay and ceon significantly increased in esophageal cancer tissues, which was associated with pathological staging and poor prognosis of esophageal cancer patients. IPO5 may promote malignant progression of esophageal cancer through the regulation of MMP7.OBJECTIVE Growing evidence has shown that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) can serve as prospective markers for survival in patients with gastric cancer (GC). In this study, we mainly focused on the potential roles of LINC00511 in the development process of GC. PATIENTS AND
