Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs), which are stably present in serum, have been reported to be potentially useful for detecting cancer. In the present study, we examined the expression profiles of serum miRNAs in large cohorts to identify the miRNAs that can be used to detect breast cancer in the early stage. We comprehensively evaluated serum miRNA expression profiles using highly sensitive microarray analysis. A total of 1,280 serum samples of breast cancer patients stored in the National Cancer Center Biobank were used. Additionally, 2,836 serum samples were obtained from non-cancer controls and 514 from patients with other types of cancers or benign diseases. The samples were divided to a training cohort including non-cancer controls, other cancers and breast cancer and a test cohort including non-cancer controls and breast cancer. The training cohort was used to identify a combination of miRNAs that detect breast cancer, and the test cohort was used to validate that combination. miRNA expression was compared between breast cancer and non-breast cancer serum , and a combination of five miRNAs (miR-1246, miR-1307-3p, miR-4634, miR-6861-5p, and miR-6875-5p) was found to detect breast cancer. This combination had a sensitivity of 97.3%, specificity of 82.9%, and accuracy of 89.7% for breast cancer in the test cohort Additionally, the combination could detect breast cancer in the early stage (sensitivity of 98.0% for T0). 1280 breast cancer serums (74 in training cohort, 1206 in test cohort), 54 benign breast diseases serums in test cohort, 2836 non-cancer control serums (1493 in training cohort, 1343 in test cohort), 514 non-breast benign diseases serums in training cohort. 150 of the non-cancer control serums in training cohort and 412 of the non-breast benign diseases serums in training cohort have been uploaded previously and are avaialable under GSE59856 (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/query/acc.cgi?acc=GSE59856).

Project description:Purpose: Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common causes of cancer deaths worldwide; however, reliable and non-invasive screening methods for GC are not established. Therefore, we conducted this study to develop a biomarker for GC detection, consisting of urinary microRNAs (miRNAs). Experimental Design: We matched 306 participants by age and sex (153 pairs consisting of patients with GC and healthy controls [HCs]), then randomly divided them across three groups: (1) the discovery cohort (4 pairs); (2) the training cohort (95 pairs); (3) the validation cohort (54 pairs). Moreover, 64 participants (32 pairs) with serum samples were also enrolled in the serum cohort. Result: There were 22 urinary miRNAs with significantly aberrant expressions between the two groups in the discovery cohort. Upon multivariate analysis of the training cohort, urinary expression levels of miR-6807-5p and miR-6856-5p were significantly independent biomarkers for diagnosis of GC, in addition to Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) status. A diagnostic panel that combined the aberrant miRNAs and H. pylori status distinguished between HC and GC samples with an area under the curve (AUC) = 0.736. In the validation cohort, urinary miR-6807-5p and miR-6856-5p showed significantly higher expression levels in the GC group, and the combination biomarker panel of miR-6807-5p, miR-6856-5p, and H. pylori status also showed excellent performance (AUC = 0.885). In addition, serum levels of miR-6807-5p and miR-6856-5p were significantly higher in the GC group. Conclusion: This novel biomarker panel enables early and non-invasive detection of GC.

Project description:Purpose: There is a quest for novel non-invasive diagnostic markers for the detection of breast cancer. The goal of this study is to identify circulating microRNA signatures using a cohort of Asian Chinese breast cancer patients, and to compare microRNA profiles between tumour and serum samples. Experimental design: MicroRNAs from paired breast cancer tumours, normal tissue and serum samples derived from 32 patients were comprehensively profiled using microarrays (1300 microRNAs against tumour and normal tissues) or LNA RT-PCR panels (742 microRNAs against serum samples). Serum samples from healthy individuals (n=22) were also employed as normal controls. Significant serum microRNAs, identified by logistic regression, were validated in an independent set of serum samples from patients (n=82) and healthy controls (n=53). Results: The 20 most significant microRNAs differentially expressed in breast cancer tumours included miR-21, miR-10b, and miR-145, previously shown to be dysregulated in breast cancer. Interestingly, 16 of the 20 most significant microRNAs differentially expressed in serum samples were novel. MiR-1, miR-92a, miR-133a and miR-133b were identified as the most important diagnostic markers, and were successfully validated; receiver operating characteristic curves derived from combinations of these microRNAs exhibited areas under the curves of 0.944-0.946. Only seven microRNAs were overexpressed in both tumours and serum, suggesting that microRNAs may be released into the serum selectively. Conclusion: The clinical employment of microRNA signatures as a non-invasive diagnostic strategy is promising, but should be further validated for different subtypes of breast cancers. "_A" and "_B" are two tissue sections of the same sample; "_1" and "_2" represents 2 runs of the same sample; na = not available All tissue samples were histologically confirmed by a pathologist using hematoxylin and eosin staining of cryosectioned specimens. One tumour sample was rejected due to failure to detect any tumour cells. Except for two samples (with 30% and 40% tumour cells), all tumour tissues employed had a minimum of 60% tumour cells, as estimated microscopically. Overall, the breast cancer tumour samples had an average of 71% tumour cells. The criteria for adjacent normal tissue were absence of tumour cells and presence of epithelial cells. Hence, after histological confirmation, 31 breast cancer tumours and 23 matched normal tissues were employed for microRNA extraction and profiling using microarray.

Project description:Purpose: In this study, we performed RNA-seq analysis as a screening strategy to identify EV-miRNAs derived from serum of well clinically annotated breast cancer (BC) patients from South of Brazil. Methods: EVs from three groups of samples, healthy controls (CT), luminal A (LA), and triple negative (TNBC), were isolated from serum using a precipitation method and analyzed by RNA-seq (screening phase). Subsequently, four EV-miRNAs (miR-142-5p, miR-150-5p, miR-320a, and miR-4433b-5p) were selected to be quantified by RT-qPCR in individual samples (test phase). Results: A panel composed of miR-142-5p, miR-320a, and miR-4433b-5p discriminated BC patients from CT with an AUC of 0.8387 (93.33% sensitivity, 68.75% specificity). In addition, the combination of miR-142-5p and miR-320a, presented an AUC of 0.941 (100% sensitivity, 93.80% specificity) in distinguishing LA patients from CT. Interestingly, decrease expression of miR-142-5p and miR-150-5p were significantly associated with more advanced tumor grades (grade III), while the decrease expression of miR-142-5p and miR-320a with larger tumor size. Conclusion: These results provide insights into the potential application of EVs-miRNAs from serum as novel specific markers for early diagnosis of BC.

Project description:Introduction: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, non-coding RNA molecules involved in post-transcriptional gene regulation and have recently been shown to play a role in cancer metastasis. In solid tumors, especially breast cancer, alterations in miRNA expression contribute to cancer pathogenesis, including metastasis. Considering the emerging role of miRNAs in metastasis, the identification of predictive markers is necessary to further understanding of stage-specific breast cancer development. This is a retrospective analysis that aimed to identify molecular biomarkers related to distant breast cancer metastasis development.<br><br>Methods: A retrospective case cohort study was performed in 64 breast cancer patients treated during the period from 1998-2001. The case group (n=29) consisted of patients with a poor prognosis who presented with breast cancer recurrence or metastasis during follow up. The control group (n=35) consisted of a random sample of patients with a good prognosis who did not develop breast cancer recurrence or metastasis. These patient groups were stratified according to TNM clinical stage (CS) I, II and III, and the main clinical features of the patients were homogeneous. miRNA profiling was performed using formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tumors. Biomarkers related to metastatic potential were identified independent of clinical stage, and a cutoff point was selected based on the optimal sensitivity and specificity (ROC curve). Finally, a hazard risk analysis of these biomarkers was performed to evaluate their relation to metastatic potential. <br><br>Results: miRNA expression profiling identified several miRNAs that were either specific and shared across all clinical stages (p?0.05). Among these, we identified miRNAs previously associated with cell motility (let-7 family), cell proliferation and invasion (hsa-miR-16 and has-miR-205) and distant metastasis (hsa-miR-21). In addition, hsa-miR-494 and hsa-miR-21 were up-regulated in metastatic cases of CSI and II. Furthermore, the combination of the 3 miRNAs identified for CSII (hsa-miR-494, hsa-miR-183 and hsa-miR-21) was significant and were a more effective risk marker compared to the single miRNAs. <br><br>Conclusions: Women with metastatic breast cancer, especially CSII, presented up-regulated levels of miR-183, miR-494 and miR-21, which were associated with a poor prognosis. These miRNAs therefore represent new risk biomarkers of breast cancer metastasis and may be useful for future targeted therapies.

Project description:Breast Cancer is the cancer with most incidence and mortality in women. microRNAs are emerging as novel prognosis/diagnostic tools. Our aim was to identify a serum microRNA signature useful to predict cancer development. We focused on studying the expression levels of 30 microRNAs in the serum of 96 breast cancer patients versus 92 control individuals. Bioinformatic studies provide a microRNA signature, designated as a predictor, based upon the expression levels of 5 microRNAs. Then, we tested the predictor in a group of 60 randomly chosen women. Lastly, a proteomic study unveiled the over-expression and down-regulation of proteins differently expressed in the serum of breast cancer patients versus that of control individuals. Twenty-six microRNAs differentiate cancer tissue from healthy tissue and 16 microRNAs differentiate the serum of cancer patients from that of the control group. The tissue expression of miR-99a-5p, mir-497-5p, miR-362, and miR-1274, and the serum levels of miR-141 correlated with patient survival. Moreover, the predictor consisting of mir-125b-5p, miR-29c-3p, mir-16-5p, miR-1260, and miR-451a was able to differentiate breast cancer patients from controls. The predictor was validated in 20 new cases of breast cancer patients and tested in 60 volunteer women, assigning 11 out of 60 women to the cancer group. An association of low levels of mir-16-5p with a high content of CD44 protein in serum was found. Circulating microRNAs in serum can represent biomarkers for cancer prediction. Their clinical relevance and use of the predictor here described might be of potential importance for breast cancer prediction.
