Project description:Objectives: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small non-coding RNAs that negatively regulate gene expression primarily through post-transcriptional modification. We tested the hypothesis that miRNA expression is associated with overall survival in advanced ovarian cancer. Methods: Cases included newly diagnosed patients with stage III or IV serous ovarian cancer. RNA from a training set of 62 cases was hybridized to an miRNA microarray containing 470 mature human transcripts. Cox regression was performed to identify miRNAs associated with overall survival. External validation was performed using quantitative RT-PCR miRNA assays in an independent test set of 123 samples. MiRNA targets and associated biologic pathways were predicted in silico. Results: Of all patients, 80% had high-grade, stage IIIC tumors and 64% underwent optimal cytoreduction. The median survival for the entire cohort was 49 ± 4 months. The training set identified 3 miRNAs associated with survival - miR-337, miR-410, and miR-645. An miRNA signature containing miR-410 and miR-645 was most strongly associated with overall survival in the training set (HR=2.96, 95% CI: 1.51-5.78). This miRNA survival signature (MiSS) was validated in the test set (HR=1.71, 95% CI: 1.05-2.78). The MiSS was independent of FIGO stage and surgical debulking. Conclusions: The data suggest that an MiSS that contains miR-410 and miR-645 is negatively associated with overall survival in advanced serous ovarian cancer. This signature, when further validated, may be useful in individualizing care for the ovarian cancer patient. Pathway analyses identify biologically plausible mechanisms. Cases included newly diagnosed patients with stage III or IV serous ovarian cancer. RNA from a training set of 62 cases was hybridized to an miRNA microarray containing 470 mature human transcripts. Cox regression was performed to identify miRNAs associated with overall survival.

Project description:The aim of the presented study was to define tissue and plasma miRNA signatures, which could potentially serve as diagnostic and prognostic markers in endometrioid endometrial cancer (EEC), and to investigate miRNA profiles in regard to clinicopathological characteristics of the tumors. Results: qPCR validation revealed regulation of 14 miRNAs in EEC tissues (miR-9, miR-141,miR-205,miR-203,miR-183,miR-200a*,miR-200b*,miR-200a,miR-200c,miR-429,miR-200b,miR-410,miR-92a,miR-1305) and 9 in plasma samples (miR-449a,miR-1290,miR-1228,miR-203,miR-200a,miR-141,miR-92a, miR-9, miR-301b). Expression of certain miRNAs showed association with FIGO stage, grade and relapse. Two miRNA signatures, miR-205/miR-410 and miR-410/miR-429/miR-92a, classified tumor tissues with higher accuracy in comparison to single miRNAs (AUC 0.972, 95% CI 0.919-0.995 and 0.991, 95% CI 0.948-1.000, resepctively). miRNA signature composed of miR-205 and miR-200a predicted relapse with AUC of 0.854 (95% CI 0.691-0.951). Tissue miRNA signatures were independent prognostic markers of overall (miR-1228/miR-200c/miR-429, HR 2.98) and progression-free survival (miR-1228/miR-429, HR 4.149). Plasma miRNA signatures classified EEC plasma samples with high accuracy. Conclusions: We conclude that miRNA signatures hold great promise for becoming non-invasive biomarkers for early EEC detection and prognosis.

Project description:Esophageal cancer is a highly malignant and prevalent cancer worldwide. Current TNM staging system is insufficient for prognosis of esophagus squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients. The aim of this study is to evaluate miRNA expression profile of ESCC and identify a miRNA signature which robustly predict the survival of ESCC patients. MiRNA expression profiles of paired frozen tissues from 119 ESCC patients were assessed by microarray. After normalization of microarray data, the patients were randomly divided into a training set (n=60) and a test set (n=59). From the training set, we identified a four-miRNA prognostic signature (including hsa-miR-218-5p, hsa-miR-142-3p, hsa-miR-150-5p, and hsa-miR-205-5p) using random forest supervised classification algorithm and nearest shrunken centroid algorithm. This signature distinguished the patients into high-risk or low-risk groups whose overall survival differed significantly (5-year survival 7.4% vs. 66.7%, p<0.001). Prognostic value of this signature was validated in the test set (5-year survival 18.8% vs. 46.5%, p=0.025) and further in an independent cohort of 58 patients assessed by a different platform (5-year survival 11.4% vs. 56.7%, p=0.003). Furthermore, multivariable Cox regression analysis revealed that this signature is an independent prognostic factor for ESCC patients. Moreover, stratified analysis showed that this signature was able to predict survival within TNM stages. The expression level of the four miRNAs measured by microarray was verified by qRT-PCR and showed high level of positive correlation (Pearson correlation coefficient>0.75, p<0.001 for all). Our results suggest that the four-miRNA signature can serve as a reliable biomarker to predict the survival of ESCC patients. the miRNA expression profiles of cancer and adjacent normal tissues form 119 ESCC patients were used to identify a miRNA signature that can perdict the survival of ESCC patients.

Project description:Background: The aim of this study was to identify differentially expressed miRNAs in high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSC), clear cell ovarian carcinoma (CCC) and ovarian surface epithelium (OSE). Selected miRNAs were evaluated for association with clinical parameters including survival, and miRNA/mRNA interactions were mapped. Results: Differentially expressed miRNAs between HGSC, CCC and OSE were identified, of which 18 were validated (p<0.01) using RT-qPCR in an extended cohort. Compared with OSE, miR-205-5p was the most overexpressed miRNA in HGSC. miR-200 family members and miR-182-5p were the most overexpressed in HGSC and CCC compared with OSE, whereas miR-383 was the most underexpressed. miR-509-3-5p, miR-509-5p, miR-509-3p and miR-510 were among the strongest differentiators between HGSC and CCC, all being significantly overexpressed in CCC compared with HGSC. High miR-200c-3p expression was associated with poor progression-free (p=0.031) and overall (p=0.026) survival in HGSC. Interacting miRNAs and mRNA targets, including those of a TP53-related pathway presented previously, were identified in HGSC. Conclusions: Several miRNAs are overexpressed in HGSC and CCC compared with OSE, including the miR-200 family, among which miR-200c-3p is associated with survival in HGSC. A set of miRNAs differentiates CCC from HGSC, of which miR-509-3-5p and miR-509-5p are the strongest classifiers. Several interactions between miRNAs and mRNAs in HGSC were mapped. Methods: Differences in miRNA expression between HGSC, CCC and OSE scrapings were analyzed by global miRNA expression profiling (Affymetrix GeneChip miRNA 2.0 Arrays, n=30), validated by RT-qPCR (n=63), and evaluated for associations with clinical parameters. For HGSC, differentially expressed miRNAs were linked to differentially expressed mRNAs identified previously (GSE36668).

Project description:In placental mammals, adaptation to extra-uterine life requires complex metabolic adjustments linked to the abrupt transition from the transplacental transfer of glucose toward the use of fat originating from the motherM-bM-^@M-^Ys milk as a major energy source. The study of a novel knock-out mouse model led us to identify the biological roles of the miR-379/miR-410 cluster at the imprinted Dlk1-Dio3 region during this metabolic transition. The miR-379/miR-410 cluster is the largest mammalian-specific miRNA cluster composed of 39 pre-miRNA and expressed from the maternally-inherited allele. We unexpectedly found that ~ 35% of heterozygous neonates with a maternal - but not paternal - deletion of the entire 40kb-long miRNA cluster die shortly after birth due to defects in the maintenance of energy homeostasis, as evidenced by impaired hepatic glycogenolysis, gluconeogenesis and ketogenesis. This maladaptive metabolic response is accompanied by profound changes in the neonatal hepatic gene expression program, notably a decrease in the activation of a large set of metabolic genes linked to lipid metabolism. Our study unveils essential roles for the miR-379/miR-410 cluster at the transition from fetal to postnatal life, revealing new layers of RNA-mediated gene regulation at the Dlk1-Dio3 domain that impose parent-of-origin effects on postnatal metabolic functions. Liver gene expression was measured in mice with a maternally-inherited deletion of the miR-379/miR-410 cluster and in wild-type littermates at embryonic day E19.5, 4h following the caesarean delivery (n=4 biological replicates per genotype)

Project description:We profile expression in serous epithelial ovarian carcinomas to assess the possibility of an miRNA signature associated with chemoresistance. Resistance to the available therapies is one of the main causes of low survival of patients with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer, thus representing an emergency in oncology. Here, we profiled miRNA expression in 86 naïve serous epithelial ovarian carcinomas (EOCs) to assess the possibility of miRNAs associated with chemoresistance. We identified 23 miRNAs associated with chemoresistance, of which three (miR-484, miR-642 and miR-217) were confirmed in the validation set (112 independent patients). The study of miR-484 role demonstrated that it regulated the chemoresistance of EOC cells acting not on cancer cells but on tumor vasculature. In particular, miR-484 is produced and secreted by chemosensitive EOC, therefore regulating the production of VEGFB by cancer cells and the expression of VEGFR2 in endothelial cells. Overall, we demonstrated that a three-miR signature can classify the response to chemotherapy and that chemoresistance in EOC relays, at least in part, on the control of tumor angiogenesis, indicating new options in the treatment of these patients. We analyzed tumor samples (<5% of normal tissue) from FFPE blocks of 86 patients with serous ovarian carcinomas.
