Postoperative oscillatory brain activity as an add-on prognostic marker in diffuse glioma: AbstractIntroductionProgression-free survival (PFS) in glioma patients varies widely, even when stratifying for known predictors (i.e. age, molecular tumor subtype, presence of epilepsy, tumor grade and Karnofsky performance status). Neuronal activity has been shown to accelerate tumor growth in an animal model, suggesting that brain activity may be valuable as a PFS predictor. We investigated whether postoperative...

piRNAs: biogenesis and their potential roles in cancer: AbstractWith the length of about 26–31 nt, PIWI-interacting RNA (piRNA) is a small non-coding RNA (ncRNA) that interacts with PIWI proteins to form the piRNA silencing complex (piRISC). PIWI is a subfamily of Argonaute, and piRNA must bind to PIWI to exert its regulatory role. Current studies indicated that piRNA and PIWI are significantly abnormally expressed in gastric, breast, kidney, colon, and lung cancers, and are involved in the initiation,...
