The overexpression of microRNA 21 correlates with biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy

ABSTRACT: The objective of this study was to utilize a microarray platform to determine the microRNA (miRNA) expression profile in prostate cancer tissue from patients who underwent radical prostatectomy and were followed for an average of 47 months. The GeneChip® miRNA Array (Affymetrix) contains more than 46,000 probes, and more than 1,100 mature human miRNAs and transcripts. An expression level higher or lower than 1.1 with a p<0.05 were considered to be differentially expressed. When tumors with a GS<7 were compared with those with a GS≥7, five miRNAs were down-regulated and nine were up-regulated. In comparing tumors from patients with PSA <10 ng/mL vs. those with PSA ≥10 ng/mL, 21 miRNAs were down-regulated and 29 were overexpressed. There was decreased expression of 21 miRNAs and increased expression of 22 miRNAs when pT2 and pT3 tumors were compared. The comparison of the expression profiles of men with vs. without recurrent disease (PSA>0.2 ng/mL) revealed that 14 miRNAs were down-regulated and 17 were up-regulated. Considering the three prognostic factors and biochemical recurrence, miR-335 was overexpressed in pT3 tumors in patients with PSA>10 ng/mL, miR-1202 was overexpressed in recurrent tumors in which PSA >10 ng/mL, and miR-885 and miR-1226 were overexpressed in recurrent pT3 tumors. Six miRNAs (miR- 361, 378, 548, 574, 652 and 892) had decreased expression in pT3 tumors in patients with PSA >10 ng/mL. miR-16 was down-regulated in recurrent pT3 tumors. miR-92 and miR-450 exhibited decreased expression in recurrent tumors in patients with PSA > 10 ng/mL. miR-28 was down-regulated in pT3 adenocarcinomas with a GS ≥ 7. The differentially expressed miRNAs in recurrent tumors were validated using qRT-PCR in 74 additional specimens. miR-21 was overexpressed in recurrent tumors, and in the Cox model, expression levels higher than 0.64 were indicative of biochemical recurrence with a risk of 2.4. These results, which were based on clinical specimens from patients treated in a standardized way and followed for an average of 47 months, provide an initial understanding of the role of miRNAs in prostatecancer progression; the foremost representative is miR-21, which has been implicated in the progression of various human cancers.

Fifty-three patients underwent a radical prostatectomy performed by the same surgeon (MS) to treat localized PC between August 2000 and June 2002. The mean age was 65 years (SD: 7.5, range: 49 - 77). The mean Gleason score was 7 (SD: 1.1, range: 5 - 10); 15 tumors had a score of 5 or 6, and 38 had a score between 7 and 10. Twenty-four (45.3%) of the patients had pT2 tumors, and 29 (54.7%) had pT3 tumors. The control group consisted of three patients with lower urinary tract symptoms, a mean age of 55.3 years and a diagnosis of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) who consented to open surgery.

Project description:Purpose: Patients with locally advanced prostate cancer after radical prostatectomy are candidates for secondary therapy. However, this higher risk population is heterogeneous. Many cases do not metastasize even when conservatively managed. Given the limited specificity of pathological features to predict metastasis, newer risk prediction models are needed. We report a validation study of a genomic classifier that predicts metastasis after radical prostatectomy in a high risk population. Method:A case-cohort design was used to sample 1,010 patients after radical prostatectomy at high risk for recurrence who were treated from 2000 to 2006. Patients had preoperative prostate specific antigen greater than 20 ng/ml, Gleason 8 or greater, pT3b or a Mayo Clinic nomogram score of 10 or greater. Patients with metastasis at diagnosis or any prior treatment for prostate cancer were excluded from analysis. A 20% random sampling created a subcohort that included all patients with metastasis. We generated 22-marker genomic classifier scores for 235 patients with available genomic data. ROC and decision curves, competing risk and weighted regression models were used to assess genomic classifier performance. Patients treated with RP between 2000 and 2006 were identified from the Mayo Clinic tumor registry for a case-cohort study design. This involved identification of all patients with metastasis and a representative of the full cohort .Thus, men at high risk of recurrence post-RP (open/robotic) with no prior neoadjuvant/prostate cancer treatment were selected based on any of preoperative PSA >20 ng/mL, pathological Gleason score (GS) â¥8, SVI, or GPSM (GS; preoperative PSA; SVI; margins) score â¥10.The cohort of 1,010 men included 73 cases with metastasis as evidenced by CT or bone scan. A 20% random sample (n=202) was drawn from the cohort. This included 19 of 73 metastatic cases. To increase sampling of metastasis, the remaining 54 metastatic cases were added, resulting in a final study set of 256 patients. 21 samples did not pass QC and were eliminated from this study. Patients not experiencing metastasis regardless of BCR (defined as follow-up PSA â¥0.4 ng/mL >30 days post-RP) were censored at last follow-up. The study was approved by Mayo Clinic Institutional Review Board.

Project description:We tested the hypothesis that a panel of placental mammal-specific miRNAs and their targets play important to establish receptivity to implantation and their dysregulated expression may be a feature in women with early pregnancy loss. Relative expression levels of miR-340-5p, −542-3p, and −671-5p all increased following treatment of Ishikawa cells with progesterone (10 μg/ml) for 24 hrs (p < 0.05). RNA sequencing of these P4-treated cells identified co-ordinate changes to 6,367 transcripts of which 1713 were predicted targets of miR-340-5p, 670 of miR-542-3p, and 618 of miR-671-5p. Quantitative proteomic analysis of Ishikawa cells transfected with mimic or inhibitor (48 hrs: n=3 biological replicates) for each of the P4-regulated miRNAs was carried out to identify targets of these miRNAs. Excluding off target effects, mir-340-5p mimic altered 1,369 proteins while inhibition changed expression of 376 proteins (p < 0.05) of which, 72 were common to both treatments. A total of 280 proteins were identified between predicted (mirDB) and confirmed (in vitro) targets. In total, 171 proteins predicted to be targets by mirDB were altered in vitro by treatment with miR-340-5p mimic or inhibitor and were also altered by treatment of endometrial epithelial cells with P4. In vitro targets of miR-542-3p identified 1,378 proteins altered by mimic while inhibition altered 975 a core of 200 proteins were changed by both. 100 protein targets were predicted and only 46 proteins were P4 regulated. miR-671-mimic altered 1,252 proteins with inhibition changing 492 proteins of which 97 were common to both, 95 were miDB predicted targets and 46 were also P4-regulated. All miRNAs were detected in endometrial biopsies taken from patients during the luteal phase of their cycle, irrespective of prior or future pregnancy outcomes Expression of mir-340-5p showed an overall increase in patients who had previously suffered a miscarriage and had a subsequent miscarriage, as compared to those who had infertility or previous miscarriage and subsequently went on to have a life birth outcome. The regulation of these miRNAs and their protein targets regulate the function of transport and secretion, and adhesion of the endometrial epithelia required for successful implantation in humans. Dysfunction of these miRNAs (and therefore the targets they regulate) may contribute to endometrial-derived recurrent pregnancy loss in women.
