    Abstract:
    AIMS: To investigate the alterations in miRNA expression during the progression of dysplasia in cervical epithelium. METHODS: A global miRNA expression profile of normal cervical squamous epithelium (Normal), cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) 3 and invasive squamous cell carcinoma (ISCC) was produced using the seventh generation of the miRCURY™ LNA microRNA Array (Exiqon, Vedbaek, Denmark). The reliability of miRNA arrays was verified by reverse transcription PCR. RESULTS: Normal, CIN 3 and ISCC showed distinct miRNA expression profiles. The differentially expressed miRNAs in ISCC versus CIN 3 clearly differed from that in CIN 3 versus Normal. Compared with ISCC versus Normal, more identical miRNAs were found in ISCC versus CIN 3 than in CIN 3 versus Normal. CONCLUSION: A particular set of miRNAs was associated with the progression of normal cervical epithelium to CIN 3 and CIN 3 to ISCC. The miRNA profile changed more noticeably in the progression of CIN to ISCC than normal cervical epithelium to CIN.
