Expression patterns of microRNAs associated with CML phases and their disease related targets

ABSTRACT: Background MicroRNAs are important regulators of transcription in hematopoiesis. Their expression deregulations were described in association with pathogenesis of some hematological malignancies. This study provides integrated microRNA expression profiling at different phases of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) with the aim to select CML specific miRNAs and find new possible biomarkers. The functions of in silico filtered targets are in this report annotated and discussed in relation to CML pathogenesis. Results Using microarrays we identified differential expression profiles of 49 miRNAs in CML patients at diagnosis, in hematological relapse, therapy failure, blast crisis and major molecular response. The expression deregulation of miR-150, miR-20a, miR-17, miR-19a, miR-103, miR-144, miR
