Integrated analysis of miRNA landscape and cellular networking pathways in stage-specific prostate cancer.

ABSTRACT: Dysregulation of miRNAs has been demonstrated in several human malignancies including prostate cancer. Due to tissue limitation and variable disease progression, stage-specific miRNAs changes in prostate cancer is unknown. Using chip-based microarray, we investigated global miRNA expression in human prostate cancer LNCaP, PC3, DU145 and 22Rv1 cells representing early-stage, advanced-stage and castration resistant prostate cancer in comparison with normal prostate epithelial cells. A total of 292 miRNAs were differentially expressed with 125 upregulated and 167 downregulated. These miRNAs were involved in pathways including drug resistance drug-efflux, adipogenesis, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, bone metamorphosis, and Th1/Th2 signaling. Regulation of miRNAs were interlinked with up
