The correlation of circulating pro-angiogenic miRNAs' expressions with disease risk, clinicopathological features, and survival profiles in gastric cancer.

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to explore the correlation of circulating pro-angiogenic miRNAs' expressions with risk, clinicopathological features, and survival profiles in gastric cancer (GC). Three hundred and thirty-three GC patients underwent radical resection and 117 health controls (HCs) were recruited for this study. Plasma samples were obtained from GC patients before the operation and from HCs after enrollment. Fourteen pro-angiogenic miRNAs were asseassed by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) of GC patients were calculated and the median follow-up duration was 36.0 months. Seven out of 14 pro-angiogenic miRNAs including let-7f, miR-17-5p, miR-18a, miR-19b-1, miR-20a, miR-210, and miR-296 were observed to be elevated in GC patients compared with HCs. MiR-18a, miR-20a, and miR-210 disclosed good predictive values of GC risk. Six pro-angiogenic miRNAs including miR-17-5p, miR-92a, miR-210, miR-20a, miR-18a, and miR-296 expressions were positively while 1 pro-angiogenic miRNA (miR-130a) was negatively correlated with tumor malignancy degree in GC patients. K-M curve disclosed that 5 pro-angiogenic miRNAs including miR-17-5p, miR-18a, miR-20a, miR-92a, and miR-210 correlated with worse DFS, while 4 pro-angiogenic miRNAs including miR-17-5p, miR-18a, miR-20a, and miR-210 associated with shorter OS. Further multivariate Cox's analysis revealed that miR-17-5p, miR-18a, miR-20a, and miR-210 were independent predictive factors for unfavorable DFS and OS. In conclusion, circulating pro-angiogenic miRNAs could serve as novel noninvasive biomarkers for disease risk and malignancy degree, and miR-17-5p, miR-18a, miR-20a, and miR-210 are independent factors predicting poor prognosis in GC patients.

Project description:BACKGROUND: MicroRNA (miRNA) expression is known to be deregulated in ovarian carcinomas. However, limited data is available about the miRNA expression pattern for the benign or borderline ovarian tumors as well as differential miRNA expression pattern associated with histological types, grades or clinical stages in ovarian carcinomas. We defined patterns of microRNA expression in tissues from normal, benign, borderline, and malignant ovarian tumors and explored the relationship between frequently deregulated miRNAs and clinicopathologic findings, response to therapy, survival, and association with Her-2/neu status in ovarian carcinomas. METHODS: We measured the expression of nine miRNAs (miR-181d, miR-30a-3p, miR-30c, miR-30d, miR-30e-3p, miR-368, miR-370, miR-493-5p, miR-532-5p) in 171 formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded ovarian tissue blocks as well as six normal human ovarian surface epithelial (HOSE) cell lines using Taqman-based real-time PCR assays. Her-2/neu overexpression was assessed in ovarian carcinomas (n = 109 cases) by immunohistochemistry analysis. RESULTS: Expression of four miRNAs (miR-30c, miR-30d, miR-30e-3p, miR-370) was significantly different between carcinomas and benign ovarian tissues as well as between carcinoma and borderline tissues. An additional three miRNAs (miR-181d, miR-30a-3p, miR-532-5p) were significantly different between borderline and carcinoma tissues. Expression of miR-532-5p was significantly lower in borderline than in benign tissues. Among ovarian carcinomas, expression of four miRNAs (miR-30a-3p, miR-30c, miR-30d, miR-30e-3p) was lowest in mucinous and highest in clear cell samples. Expression of miR-30a-3p was higher in well-differentiated compared to poorly differentiated tumors (P = 0.02), and expression of miR-370 was higher in stage I/II compared to stage III/IV samples (P = 0.03). In multivariate analyses, higher expression of miR-181d, miR-30c, miR-30d, and miR-30e-3p was associated with significantly better disease-free or overall survival. Finally, lower expression of miR-30c, miR-30d, miR-30e-3p and miR-532-5p was significantly associated with overexpression of Her-2/neu. CONCLUSIONS: Aberrant expression of miRNAs is common in ovarian tumor suggesting involvement of miRNA in ovarian tumorigenesis. They are associated with histology, clinical stage, survival and oncogene expression in ovarian carcinoma.

Project description:To investigate clinicopathological features of early stage gastric cancer with enteroblastic differentiation (GCED).We retrospectively investigated data on 6 cases of early stage GCED and 186 cases of early stage conventional gastric cancer (CGC: well or moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma) who underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection or endoscopic mucosal resection from September 2011 to February 2015 in our hospital. GCED was defined as a tumor having a primitive intestine-like structure composed of cuboidal or columnar cells with clear cytoplasm and immunohistochemical positivity for either alpha-fetoprotein, Glypican 3 or SALL4. The following were compared between GCED and CGC: age, gender, location and size of tumor, macroscopic type, ulceration, depth of invasion, lymphatic and venous invasion, positive horizontal and vertical margin, curative resection rate.Six cases (5 males, 1 female; mean age 75.7 years; 6 lesions) of early gastric cancer with a GCED component and 186 cases (139 males, 47 females; mean age 72.7 years; 209 lesions) of early stage CGC were investigated. Mean tumor diameters were similar but rates of submucosal invasion, lymphatic invasion, venous invasion, and non-curative resection were higher in GCED than CGC (66.6% vs 11.4%, 33.3% vs 2.3%, 66.6% vs 0.4%, 83.3% vs 11% respectively, P < 0.01). Deep submucosal invasion was not revealed endoscopically or by preoperative biopsy. Histologically, in GCED the superficial mucosal layer was covered with a CGC component. The GCED component tended to exist in the deeper part of the mucosa to the submucosa by lymphatic and/or venous invasion, without severe stromal reaction. In addition, Glypican 3 was the most sensitive marker for GCED (positivity, 83.3%), immunohistochemically.Even in the early stage GCED has high malignant potential, and preoperative diagnosis is considered difficult. Endoscopists and pathologists should know the clinicopathological features of this highly malignant type of cancer.
