Prognostic and diagnostic value of circRNA expression in colorectal carcinoma: a meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are research hotspots in the network of noncoding RNAs in numerous tumours. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the clinicopathological, prognostic and diagnostic value of circRNAs in colorectal cancer.

Methods

The PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science online databases were searched for relevant studies before May 15, 2019. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to assess the association between circRNAs expression, and overall survival (OS) and clinical parameters. Pooled sensitivity, specificity, and the area under the curve (AUC) were employed to assess the diagnostic value of circRNAs.

Results

A total of 19 studies were enrolled in this meta-analysis, with 11 on clinicopathological parameters, 8 on prognosis and 7 on diagnosis. For clinicopathological and prognostic value, elevated expression of oncogenic circRNAs was correlated with poor clinical parameters (tumor size: OR?=?1.769, 95% CI: 1.097-2.852; differentiation grade: OR?=?1.743, 95% CI: 1.032-2.946; TNM stage: OR?=?3.320, 95% CI: 1.529-7.207; T classification: OR?=?3.410, 95% CI: 2.088-5.567; lymph node metastasis: OR?=?3.357, 95% CI: 2.160-5.215; distal metastasis: OR?=?4.338, 95% CI: 2.503-7.520) and worse prognosis (HR?=?2.29, 95% CI: 1.50-3.52). However, elevated expression of tumor-suppressor circRNAs was correlated with better clinical parameters (differentiation grade: OR?=?0.453, 95% CI: 0.261-0.787; T classification: OR?=?0.553, 95% CI: 0.328-0.934; distal metastasis: OR?=?0.196, 95% CI: 0.077-0.498) and favorable prognosis (HR?=?0.37, 95% CI: 0.22-0.64). For diagnostic value, the pooled sensitivity, specificity, and AUC were 0.82 (95% CI, 0.75-0.88), 0.72 (95% CI, 0.66-0.78), and 0.82 (95% CI, 0.78-0.85), respectively.

Conclusions

These results indicate that circRNAs may be potential biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of colorectal cancer.

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) ranks as the second leading cause of cancer-related mortality globally and is the third most prevalent cancer. The effective treatment of CRC is challenged by tumor drug resistance, underscoring the urgent need for novel therapeutic strategies. It is well recognized that epigenetic modifications, particularly DNA methylation, significantly contribute to the initiation and advancement of CRC. Tumors frequently exhibit hypermethylation of specific gene promoters alongside a general hypomethylation of genomic DNA. In normal tissues, gene promoters, particularly those of tumor suppressor genes, are typically unmethylated, whereas they are often hypermethylated in cancerous tissues. Previous studies have identified the methylation status of the CpG island within the SLC30A10 gene as a reliable biomarker for CRC. Notably, a hypermethylated phenotype is inversely correlated with SLC30A10 expression. However, the precise functional implications of SLC30A10 suppression in the context of CRC progression remain to be elucidated.). The investigation of molecular pathways involved in metal metabolism in CRC has not been conducted previously at the transcriptomic level. Furthermore, the relationship between the mutational characteristics of tumors—such as individual mutations, mutational burden, and microsatellite instability—and the activity of genes related to metal metabolic pathways has not been explored. This project aims to be the first to examine the antitumor potential of modulating the transport systems for manganese and zinc ions in CRC. The molecular function of SLC30A10 is to export zinc (Zn) and manganese (Mn) ions from the cell. Additionally, SLC30A10 plays a crucial role in mitigating Mn-induced cytotoxicity and facilitates Zn transport to early endosomes while promoting endosomal recirculation to avert Zn toxicity. Our findings indicate that overexpression of SLC30A10 is correlated with the knockout of its functional antagonist, SLC39A14 in the HuTu80 and HCT-15 cell lines.

Project description:BackgroundAccumulating evidence supports the overexpression of mucin 1 (MUC1) in colorectal cancer (CRC), but the value of elevated MUC1 expression remains controversial. Here, we evaluated the prognostic and clinicopathological value of MUC1 expression in CRC.Materials and methodsThe Web of Science, PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Wanfang databases, as well as the China Biology Medicine disc (CBMdisc) and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) were searched for studies on MUC1 expression and prognosis of CRC through July 20, 2018. The pooled relative risks (RRs) and hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were calculated to evaluate the prognostic and clinicopathological value of MUC1 expression in CRC. The Revman version 5.3 package and STATA, version 12 were employed for pooled analysis and analysis of publication bias.ResultsThis meta-analysis included 16 published studies. The combined analysis showed that CRC patients with high MUC1 expression had a worse clinical outcome in overall survival (OS) (HR = 1.51, 95% CI = 1.30-1.75, P <.00001). In addition, high MUC1 expression was associated with higher TNM stage (RR = 1.44, 95% CI = 1.17-1.77, P = .0007), greater depth of invasion (RR = 1.30, 95% CI = 1.10-1.53, P = .002), and lymph node metastasis (RR = 1.47, 95% CI = 1.20-1.80, P = .0002) of CRC. However, the elevated MUC1 expression was not related to disease-free survival/recurrence-free survival (DFS/RFS) (HR = 1.51, 95% CI = 0.78-2.89, P = .22), histological grade (RR = 1.15, 95% CI = 0.96-1.38, P = .12), gender (RR = 0.95; 95% CI = 0.83-1.08, P = .44), tumor size (RR = 1.11, 95% CI = 0.85-1.44, P = .44), tumor site (RR = 1.01, 95% CI = 0.88-1.16, P = .84), or mucinous component (RR = 0.83, 95% CI = 0.60-1.14, P = .24) in CRC.ConclusionOur findings indicated that high MUC1 expression represents a marker of poor prognosis in CRC. Meanwhile, elevated MUC1 expression was associated with advanced TNM stage, greater depth of invasion, and lymph node metastasis.
