Project description:To screen miRNAs for potential NDRG2 regulation, we performed micronome profiling in 3 pairs of SACC samples and the corresponding normal salivary glands. The sequencing analysis generated approximately 1,000,000 clean reads per sample. All reads were mapped to annotated miRNAs in the miRBase database (version 22), whereas approximately 45% of the clean reads were mapped to mature miRNAs in the database. After applying a stringent filtering criterion to compare the results from SACC tumor tissue and the adjacent normal salivary glands (log2 fold change >1, FDR<0.05), we identified 176 dysregulated miRNAs.
