ABSTRACT: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) a class of non-coding RNAs about 22 nt in size that are found in a wide range of organisms from plants, viruses to humans. MicroRNA has a wide range of biological functions. It can recruit related RNA enzymes and lead to mRNA degradation after binding to mRNA specificity, thus blocking the expression of protein encoding genes and then affecting their biological functions. In recent years, microRNA has been found to be closely related to the biological behaviors, such as the occurrence, development, invasion and metastasis of multiple human malignant carcinomas, and play a regulatory role in the above biological phenotypes. Lung cancer is the highest incidence of malignancy. The exact molecular mechanism of its occurrence and development has not been fully elucidated. Previous studies have shown that microRNA plays an important role in lung tumor suppressor gene inactivation, oncogene activation and epigenetics. At the same time, there are also reports that there is a significant difference in the expression of microRNA in patients with lung cancer and benign lung diseases. This differential expression provides a basis for the feasibility of microRNA as a diagnostic and pre biological marker for lung cancer.?.

Project description:Squamous cell lung cancer (SCC) and adenocarcinoma are the most common subtypes of the lung tumours. The search for cancer-directed treatments has increased the need for understanding molecular features of either histological subtype. The aim of this study was to identify transcriptional regulation differences due to miRNA expression profiles between SCC and adenocarcinoma. For this propose, a total of 44 patients were evaluated to assess the correlation between the miRNA and messenger RNA (mRNA) expression levels. Total RNA were isolated, amplified, labeled and hybridized on Agilent human whole genome V2 22 K microarray chip. qRT-PCR was conducted to validate our microarray data. MicroRNA expression was detected and quantified using the TaqMan Low Density Arrays. Predicted miRNA-mRNA interactions were taken from miRanda, miRWalk and TargetScan. After processing data, changes in 56 mRNAs as well as in 9 miRNAs were detected between SCC and adenocarcinoma. Nearly 20% of overall deregulated genes were targeted by at least one of the 9 miRNAs (miR-149, miR-205, miR-375, miR-378, miR-422a, miR-483-5p, miR-494, miR-601 and miR-708) differentially expressed between SCC and adenocarcinoma. Genes predicted (CEACAM6, CGN, CLDN3, ABCC3, MLPH, ACSL5, TMEM45B, MUC1) to be targeted by several miRNAs were individually validated by qRT-PCR. We found genes involved in tight junctions and other involved in resistance to anticancer agents. These genes were reliable biomarkers, with high sensitivity and specificity, to detect differences between the two most common histological subtypes of lung cancer. In conclusion, our data demonstrate that the transcriptional regulation differences through miRNA expression play an important role in key hallmarks of non-small cell lung cancer. Identification of new molecular markers in lung carcinoma 44 tumour samples following surgical resection for clinical early stage NSCLC (SCC and adenocarcinoma) This series represents the mRNA profiling only (not miRNA). The related miRNA data are in Series GSE43000.
