Expression of the microRNA-200 Family, microRNA-205, and Markers of Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition as Predictors for Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection over Esophagectomy in Esophageal Adenocarcinoma: A Single-Center Experience.


ABSTRACT: Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is an effective treatment of early esophageal adenocarcinomas (EACs). The decision of ESD over esophagectomy is based on clinical evaluation of tumor depth and invasion. On a molecular level, tumor invasion is strongly associated with epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Here, we investigated whether localized ESD-resected and surgically resected EAC samples displayed different expression profiles of EMT protein and microRNA markers and whether these different expression profiles were able to retrospectively discriminate localized and surgically resected samples. By doing this, we aimed to evaluate whether preoperative measurement of EMT marker expression might support the decision regarding ESD over surgery. The results showed that ESD-resected samples displayed an epithelial expression profile, i.e., high expression of epithelial protein markers, whereas surgically resected samples displayed high expression of mesenchymal markers. In addition, the anti-EMT microRNA-205 was significantly more expressed in ESD-resected samples, whereas we found no significant differences in the expression levels of microRNA-200 family members. Furthermore, in our retrospective approach, we have demonstrated that measurement of selected EMT markers and microRNA-205 has significant discrimination power to distinguish ESD-resected and surgically resected samples. We suggest that the assessment of EMT status of EAC samples on a molecular level may support clinical evaluation regarding the applicability of ESD.
