[Clinical Application of Plasma miR-34b-3p and miR-302a-5p in the Diagnosis of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer].

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:MicroRNA is a kind of single-stranded non-coding RNA whose length is about 22 nucleotides and its abnormal expression is related to disease closely. This study is aiming to explore the relative expression of miR-34b-3p and miR-302a-5p in the plasma of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients and its clinical value. METHODS:The levels of miR-34b-3p and miR-302a-5p in plasma were detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) in 86 patients with NSCLC, 64 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) and 39 healthy subjects. Analyze their value in diagnosing NSCLC by contrasting and combining carcino-embryonic antigen (CEA), neuron-specific enolase (NSE), and cytokeratin 19 fragments 21-1 (CYFRA21-1). RESULTS:The levels of plasma miR-34b-3p and miR-302a-5p in NSCLC group were significantly higher than those in the PTB group and the healthy group (P<0.05). In patients with NSCLC, the levels of plasma miR-34b-3p was correlated with the diameter of tumor (P<0.01). When using one plasma marker to diagnose NSCLC, miR-302a-5p had the highest sensitivity (82.6%) and CEA had the highest specificity (81.6%). While combined two plasma markers, miR-34b-3p+miR-302a-5p had the highest sensitivity (80.2%) and miR-34b-3p+CEA had the highest specificity (81.4%). As detected multiple markers, miR-302a-5p+NSE+CYFRA21-1 had the highest sensitivity (81.4%) and miR-34b-3p+CEA+NSE had the highest specificity (90.3%). The combination of miR-34b-3p, miR-302a-5p and CEA obtained the highest area under the curve (AUC), which was 0.832. Logistic regression model indicated that miR-34b-3p was independent risk factor for NSCLC compared to control groups. CONCLUSIONS:Plasma miR-34b-3p and miR-302a-5p could be used as biological markers for the diagnosis of NSCLC.

Project description:BackgroundMetastasis is one of the main reasons for treatment failure in endometrial cancer. Notably, high mobility group AT-hook 2 (HMGA2) has been recognized as a driving factor of tumour metastasis. microRNAs (miRNAs) are powerful posttranscriptional regulators of HMGA2.MethodsThe binding sites of miR-302a-5p and miR-367-3p on HMGA2 mRNA were identified using bioinformatics prediction software and were validated via luciferase assay. The expression levels of miR-302a-5p and miR-367-3p were detected using quantitative real-time PCR and in situ hybridization. Western blotting and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the levels of HMGA2 and epithelial-mesenchymal transition pathway-related proteins. Co-immunoprecipitation was used to detect protein interactions. The roles of miR-302a-5p and miR-367-3p in the regulation of HMGA2 during the progression of endometrial cancer were investigated using both in vitro and in vivo assays.ResultsIn the present study, high HMGA2 expression was correlated with poor clinical outcomes in endometrial cancer. The binding sites of miRNAs on HMGA2 mRNA were identified using bioinformatics prediction software and were validated via luciferase assay. In the endometrial cancer cell lines Ishikawa and HEC-1A, the overexpression of miR-302a-5p/367-3p significantly inhibited the expression of HMGA2 mRNA. In endometrial cancer tissues, we showed that miR-302a-5p and miR-367-3p were significantly downregulated and thus inversely correlated with HMGA2. The miR-302a-5p and miR-367-3p expression levels were closely correlated with FIGO stage and lymph node metastasis. High expression of miR-302a-5p/367-3p was correlated with high survival rates in endometrial cancer. In addition, miR-302a-5p/367-3p suppressed the malignant behaviour of endometrial carcinoma cells via the inhibition of HMGA2 expression.ConclusionOur findings indicate that miR-302a-5p/367-3p-mediated expression of HMGA2 regulates the malignant behaviour of endometrial carcinoma cells, which suggests that the miR-302a-5p/367-3p-HMGA2 axis may be a predictive biomarker of endometrial cancer metastasis and patient survival and a potential therapeutic target in metastatic endometrial cancer.

Project description:Background:Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide, and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for over 80% of all lung cancers. Serum microRNAs (miRNAs), due to their high stability, have the potential to become valuable noninvasive biomarkers. This present study was aimed to identify the serum miRNAs expression signatures for the diagnosis and prognosis of NSCLC using bioinformatics analysis. Methods:A total of 12 miRNAs profiling studies have been identified in Pubmed, Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), and ArreyExpress databases. Differentially expressed miRNAs (DEmiRNAs) were analyzed according to GEO2R online tool and RRA method from R. Then, prediction of DEmiRNAs' target genes from TargetScan, PicTar, miRDB, Tarbase, and miRanda database. Furthermore, we using reverse transcription- quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) to evaluate the expression levels of DEmiRNAs in serum samples obtained from NSCLC patients and healthy controls. Subsequently, the clinical significance of the tested miRNAs was determined using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis and Cox regression analysis. Results:A total of 27 DEmiRNAs were identified and 5 of them (miR-1228-3p, miR-1228-5p, miR-133a-3p, miR-1273f, miR-545-3p) were significantly up-regulated and 4 of them (miR-181a-5p, miR-266-5p, miR-361-5p, miR-130a-3p) were significantly down-regulated in NSCLC patients compared with healthy controls. RT-qPCR validated that miR-1228-3p (P?=0.006) and miR-181a-5p (P?=0.030) were significantly differentially expressed in the serum of NSCLC patients and healthy controls. ROC analysis on miR-1228-3p and miR-181a-5p revealed the area under the curve (AUC) of 0.685 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.563-0.806; P?=0.006) and 0.647 (95% CI, 0.506-0.758; P?=0.049). ROC analysis on miR-1228-3p combined miR-181a-5p revealed the AUC of 0.711 (95% CI, 0.593-0.828; P?=0.002). Multivariate Cox regression analysis demonstrated that the high serum miR-1228-3p level was an independent factor for the poor prognosis of NSCLC patients. Conclusions:Serum miR-1228-3p and miR-181a-5p are potential noninvasive biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of NSCLC patients.

Project description:BackgroundLung cancer is the malignant tumor with the highest incidence and mortality rate in the world today, and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is its most common type. However, there is still a paucity of specific tumor markers for lung cancer screening. Herein, we detected and compared the levels of miR-128-3p and miR-33a-5p in serum exosomes of NSCLC patients and healthy volunteers, with the aim of identifying suitable exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) as tumor biomarkers, and explored their value in the auxiliary diagnosis of NSCLC.MethodsAll participants were recruited from September 1, 2022 to December 30, 2022, and met the inclusion criteria. The case group included 20 patients with lung nodules who were highly suspected of having lung cancer (two cases were excluded). A total of 18 healthy volunteers (control group) were also enrolled. Blood samples were collected in both the case group before surgery and in the control group. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction method was used to detect the expression of miR-128-3p and miR-33a-5p in serum exosomes. The main indicators of statistical analysis included the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), sensitivity, and specificity.ResultsCompared with the healthy control group, the NSCLC case group had significantly lower expression levels of serum exosome miR-128-3p and miR-33a-5p (P<0.01, P<0.001), and there was a significant positive correlation between the two exosome miRNAs (r=0.848, P<0.01). The AUC values of miR-128-3p alone and miR-33a-5p alone in distinguishing case group and control group were 0.789 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.637-0.940; sensitivity: 61.1%; specificity: 94.4%; P=0.003] and 0.821 (95% CI: 0.668-0.974; sensitivity: 77.8%; specificity: 83.3%; and P=0.001), respectively. The combination of miR-128-3p and miR-33a-5p had an AUC of 0.855 (95% CI: 0.719-0.991; P<0.001) for distinguishing case group and control group, which was greater than the AUC values of miR-128-3p alone and miR-33a-5p alone (cut-off value: 0.034; sensitivity: 83.3%; and specificity: 88.9%). However, there was no significant difference in the AUC among these three groups (P>0.05).ConclusionsSerum exosome miR-128-3p and miR-33a-5p showed good performance in NSCLC screening and may be used as new biomarkers for large-scale NSCLC screening.
