Integrative Analysis of MicroRNA and Gene Interactions for Revealing Candidate Signatures in Prostate Cancer.

ABSTRACT: MicroRNA (miRNA)-gene interactions are well-recognized as involved in the progression of almost all cancer types including prostate cancer, which is one of the most common cancers in men. This study explored the significantly dysregulated genes and miRNAs and elucidated the potential miRNA-gene regulatory network in prostate cancer. Integrative analysis of prostate cancer and normal prostate transcriptomic data in The Cancer Genome Atlas dataset was conducted using both differential expression analysis and weighted correlation network analysis (WGCNA). Thirteen genes (RRM2, ORC6, CDC45, CDKN2A, E2F2, MYBL2, CCNB2, PLK1, FOXM1, CDC25C, PKMYT1, GTSE1, and CDC20) were potentially correlated with prostate cancer based on functional enrichment analyses. MiRNAs targeting these genes were
