Prognostic value of long non-coding RNA GHET1 in cancers: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

A number of studies have demonstrated the critical role of long non-coding RNA gastric cancer high expressed transcript 1 (GHET1) in many cancers. This meta-analysis provides an evidence-based evaluation of the prognostic role of GHET1 in cancer.

Materials and methods

Literature searches were conducted in several databases including Medline, Cochrane, EMBASE, CNKI, and Wanfang. The pooled odds ratio (OR) and hazard ratio (HR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) were used to evaluate the role of GHET1 in cancer. The study protocol was registered at PROSPERO (ID: CRD42018111252).

Results

Sixteen studies, containing 1315 patients, were analyzed in this meta-analysis. The pooled results indicated that GHET1 overexpression was significantly associated with poor overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) in cancer. Moreover, up-regulation of GHET1 expression predicted larger tumor size, positive lymph node metastasis, positive distant metastasis, and advanced TNM (tumor-node-metastases) stage in human cancers.

Conclusion

There is a significant correlation between up-regulation of GHET1 and both poor prognosis and advanced clinicopathological cancer characteristics. GHET1 may be a potential prognostic predictor for human cancers.

Project description:Background: Although the treatment of cancer has made evident progress, its morbidity and mortality are still high. A tumor marker is a critical indicator for early cancer diagnosis, and timely cancer detection can efficiently help improve the prognosis of patients. Therefore, it is necessary to identify novel markers associated with cancer. LncRNA myocardial infarction associated transcript (MIAT) is a newly identified tumor marker, and in this study, we aimed to explore the relationship between MIAT and clinicopathological features and patient prognosis. Methods: We searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and The Cochrane Library from inception to September 2020 to identify correlational studies. Then, we extracted valid data and used Stata software to make forest plots. We used the hazard ratio (HR) or odds ratio (OR) with 95% CI to evaluate the relationship between aberrant expression of MIAT and patients' prognosis and clinicopathological features. Results: The study included 21 studies, containing 2,048 patients. Meta-analysis showed that overexpression of lncRNA MIAT was associated with poor overall survival (OS) (HR = 1.60, 95% CI, 1.31-1.96, p < 0.001). In addition, high expression of MIAT could forecast tumor size (OR = 2.26, 95% CI 1.34-3.81, p = 0.002), distant metastasis (OR = 2.54, 95% CI 1.84-3.50, p < 0.001), TNM stage (OR = 2.38, 95% CI 1.36-4.18, p = 0.002), lymph node metastasis (OR = 2.59, 95% CI 1.25-5.36, p = 0.011), and the degree of differentiation (OR = 2.65, 95% CI 1.54-4.58, p < 0.001). However, other clinicopathological features, including age (OR = 1.07, 95% CI 0.87-1.32, p = 0.516), gender (OR = 0.95, 95% CI 0.77-1.19, p = 0.668), and histology (OR = 0.72, 95% CI 0.48-1.10, p = 0.128) were not significantly different from high expression of MIAT. Conclusions: Our study showed that overexpression of MIAT is related to poor overall survival and clinicopathological features. MIAT can be considered a novel tumor marker to help diagnose tumors earlier and improve patient prognosis.

Project description:Background: Numerous studies have revealed that the long non-coding RNA LINC00662 is irregularly expressed in various cancers, as well as is correlated with cancer development and progression. Nevertheless, the clinical value of LINC00662 remains controversial. Hence, we explored the correlation of LINC00662 with cancer prognosis through meta-analysis and bioinformatics analysis. Methods: From the beginning through 12 March 2022, we searched for correlational studies on Web of Science, Embase, PubMed and The Cochrane Library. We used pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) to determine the significance of studies on survival outcomes and clinicopathological aspects in human cancers. Additionally, the Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA) database was employed to confirm our findings. Results: Our meta-analysis of 14 studies comprising a total of 960 cancer patients revealed that LINC00662 overexpression was correlated with poor overall survival (HR = 1.91, 95% CI 1.49-2.45, p < 0.001) in cancer patients and relapse-free survival (HR = 2.12, 95% CI 1.19-3.76, p = 0.010) in hepatocellular carcinoma patients. The correlation between LINC00662 and OS was further supported by the results of subgroup analyses according to cancer type, follow-up time, HR availability, and NOS score. In addition, LINC00662 overexpression predicted advanced tumor stage (OR = 4.23, 95% CI 2.50-7.17, p < 0.001), larger tumor size (OR = 1.49, 95% CI 1.11-1.99, p = 0.008), earlier lymph node metastasis (OR = 2.40, 95% CI 1.25-4.59, p = 0.008), and earlier distant metastasis (OR = 4.78, 95% CI 2.57-8.88, p < 0.001). However, there were no statistically significant differences in age (OR = 1.16, 95% CI 0.90-1.51, p = 0.246), gender (OR = 1.10, 95% CI 0.79-1.53, p = 0.578), or differentiation grade (OR = 1.53, 95% CI 0.71-3.33, p = 0.280). Conclusion: LINC00662 expression upregulation is associated with poor prognosis and advanced clinicopathological features in patients with multiple tumors. LINC00662 may serve as a biomarker for the diagnosis and treatment of patients with tumors.
