The invention provides application of protein DEPDC1 (Dishevelled and EGL-10, Pleckstrin Domain-Containing protein 1) as a marker for diagnosing the triple negative breast cancer, and also provides application of miR-26b for preparing a medicine for treating the triple negative breast cancer. The invention also provides application of miR-26b for preparing a medicine for inhibiting DEPDC1 mRNA (Ribonucleic Acid) expression. The invention finds that DEPDC1 expression is obviously higher than a paired para-carcinoma tissue in a triple negative breast cancer tissue.

The invention discloses application of FoxM1 in preparation of a reagent for diagnosing and treating intrauterine adhesion diseases. The invention relates to application of FoxM1 as a detection target in preparation of an intrauterine adhesion diagnostic reagent. The invention relates to application of FoxM1 in preparation of a medicine for treating diseases caused by uterine fibrosis.
