Clinical value of miR-198-5p in lung squamous cell carcinoma assessed using microarray and RT-qPCR.

ABSTRACT: To examine the clinical value of miR-198-5p in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC).Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) microarray datasets were used to explore the miR-198-5p expression and its diagnostic value in LUSC. Real-time reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to evaluate the expression of miR-198-5p in 23 formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) LUSC tissues and corresponding non-cancerous tissues. The correlation between miR-198-5p expression and clinic pathological features was assessed. Meanwhile, putative target messenger RNAs of miR-198-5p were identified based on the analysis of differentially expressed genes in the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and 12 miRNA prediction tools. Subsequently, the putative target genes were sent to Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analyses.MiR-198-5p was low expressed in LUSC tissues. The combined standard mean difference (SMD) values of miR-198-5p expression based on GEO datasets were -?0.30 (95% confidence interval (CI) -?0.54, -?0.06) and -?0.39 (95% CI -?0.83, 0.05) using fixed effect model and random effect model, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity were not sufficiently high, as the area under the curve (AUC) was 0.7749 (Q*?=?0.7143) based on summarized receiver operating characteristic (SROC) curves constructed using GEO datasets. Based on the in-house RT-qPCR, miR-198-5p expression was 4.3826?±?1.7660 in LUSC tissues and 4.4522?±?1.8263 in adjacent normal tissues (P?=?0.885). The expression of miR-198-5p was significantly higher in patients with early TNM stages (I-II) than that in cases with advanced TNM stages (III-IV) (5.4400?±?1.5277 vs 3.5690?±?1.5228, P?=?0.008). Continuous variable-based meta-analysis of GEO and PCR data displayed the SMD values of -?0.26 (95% CI -?0.48, -?0.04) and -?0.34 (95% CI -?0.71, 0.04) based on fixed and random effect models, respectively. As for the diagnostic value of miR-198-5p, the AUC based on the SROC curve using GEO and PCR data was 0.7351 (Q*?=?0.6812). In total, 542 genes were identified as the targets of miR-198-5p. The most enriched Gene Ontology terms were epidermis development among biological processes, cell junction among cellular components, and protein dimerization activity among molecule functions. The pathway of non-small cell lung cancer was the most significant pathway identified using Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analysis.The expression of miR-198-5p is related to the TNM stage. Thus, miR-198-5p might play an important role via its target genes in LUSC.

Project description:Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), the main subtype of non-small cell lung cancer, is known to be regulated by various microRNAs (miRs/miRNAs); however, the role of miR-198-5p in LUAD has not been clarified. In the present study, the clinical value of miR-198-5p in LUAD and its potential molecular mechanism was evaluated. miR-198-5p expression was examined by reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) in 101 paired LUAD and adjacent normal lung tissues. Subsequently, the miR-198-5p expression level was determined from microarray data from the Gene Expression Omnibus, ArrayExpress and by meta-analyses. Furthermore, the target mRNAs of miR-198-5p from 12 miRNA-mRNA predictive tools were intersected with The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)-based differentially expressed genes. In addition, Gene Ontology annotation and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis were conducted to determine the possible mechanism of miR-198-5p in LUAD. The Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes/Proteins database was employed to construct a protein-protein interaction network among the potential target genes of miR-198-5p. The results showed that miR-198-5p expression was lower in LUAD tissues than in adjacent non-cancerous lung tissues (4.469±2.495 vs. 5.301±2.502; P=0.015). Meta-analyses, including the data from the present study and online microarray data, also verified the downregulation of miR-198-5p in 584 cases of LUAD. The expression of miR-198-5p was associated with the age, blood vessel invasion, Tumor-Node-Metastasis stage, and lymph node metastasis of patients with LUAD and served as an independent prognostic factor for survival. The hub genes of miR-198-5p were upregulated in LUAD, according to TCGA and The Human Protein Atlas. For the KEGG pathway analysis, the most enriched KEGG pathway was the p53 signaling pathway (P=1.42×10-6). These findings indicated that the downregulation of miR-198-5p may play a pivotal role in the development of LUAD by targeting various signaling pathways.

Project description:In order to determine the diagnostic efficacy of microRNA (miR)-122-5p and to identify the potential molecular signaling pathways underlying the function of miR-122-5p in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the expression profiles of data collected from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and literature databases were analyzed, along with any associations between clinicopathological characteristics and the diagnostic value of miR-122-5p in HCC. The intersection of 12 online prediction databases and differentially expressed genes from TCGA and GEO were utilized in order to select the prospective target genes of miR-122-5p in HCC. Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) and protein-protein interaction network (PPI) analyses were subsequently performed based on the selected target genes. The average expression level of miR-122-5p was decreased in HCC patients compared with controls from TCGA database (P<0.001), and the downregulation of miR-122-5p was significantly associated with HCC tissues (P<0.001), tumor vascular invasion (P<0.001), metastasis (P=0.001), sex (P=0.006), virus infection status (P=0.001) and tissue (compared with serum; P<0.001) in cases from the GEO database. The pooled sensitivity and specificity for miR-122-5p to diagnose HCC were 0.60 [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.48-0.71] and 0.81 (95% CI, 0.70-0.89), respectively. The area under the curve (AUC) value was 0.76 (95% CI, 0.72-0.80), while in Meta-DiSc 1.4, the AUC was 0.76 (Q*=0.70). The pooled sensitivity and specificity were 0.60 (95% CI, 0.57-0.62) and 0.79 (95% CI, 0.76-0.81), respectively. A total of 198 overlapping genes were selected as the potential target genes of miR-122-5p, and 7 genes were defined as the hub genes from the PPI network. Cell division cycle 6 (CDC6), minichromosome maintenance complex component 4 (MCM4) and MCM8, which serve pivotal functions in the occurrence and development of HCC, were the most significant hub genes. The regulation of cell proliferation for cellular adhesion and the biosynthesis of amino acids was highlighted in the GO and KEGG pathway analyses. The downregulation of miR-122-5p in HCC demonstrated diagnostic value, worthy of further attention. Therefore, miR-122-5p may function as a tumor suppressor by modulating genome replication.
