Shedding Light on the Dark Cancer Genomes: Long Noncoding RNAs as Novel Biomarkers and Potential Therapeutic Targets for Cancer.

abstract：:Malignant mesothelioma is an aggressive tumor of the serosal surfaces of the lungs, heart, and abdomen. Survival rates are poor and effective treatments are not available. However, recent therapeutic regimens targeting thymidylate synthase (TS) in malignant mesothelioma patients have shown promise. We have reported th...
