  • Title: Three differential expression profiles of miRNAs as potential biomarkers for lung adenocarcinoma.
    Author: Zheng R, Mao W, Du Z, Zhang J, Wang M, Hu M.
    Journal: Biochem Biophys Res Commun; 2018 Dec 09; 507(1-4):377-382. PubMed ID: 30442364.
    Abstract:
    Owing to the poor prognosis, novel biomarkers for lung adenocarcinoma (LACA) are needed nowadays. The aim of the study was to identify the differential miRNAs expression between lung cancer and normal tissues and evaluate the prognostic values of the miRNAs. Multidimensional data of 528 samples were retrieved from The Cancer Genome Atlas archive. Data analysis was based on a computational approach to detect survival-associated molecular signatures. A total of 191 differentially expressed miRNAs were identified between LACA tissues and normal tissues, including 88 up-regulated and 103 down-regulated miRNAs. The Kaplan-Meier survival method revealed the prognostic function of the three miRNAs (miR-1293, miR-873 and miR-1914). Cox regression analysis showed that the three-miRNA signature was an independent prognostic factor in LACA. The functional enrichment analysis suggested that the target genes of three miRNAs may be involved in various pathways related to the cancer. This study demonstrated that the three-miRNA signature (miR-1293, miR-873 and miR-1914) could be used as a prognostic marker in LACA.
