A Distinctive microRNA (miRNA) Signature in the Blood of Colorectal Cancer (CRC) Patients at Surgery

Abstract: Background: Liquid biopsy (LB) provides an examination of the peripheral blood of cancer patients for circulating tumor cells, cell-free nucleic acids and microRNAs (miRNAs) and is an established tool of precision medicine. Unlike most previous LB studies that focused on advanced metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC), we assessed miRNA dysregulation in blood samples obtained on the day of surgery from patients with primary CRC lesions but no clinical evidence of extra-colonic diffusion. In this study, plasma prep… Show more

“…A number of studies have recently manifested the association of miR-222-3p dysregulation with cancer initiation and progression (29)(30)(31). Despite recent developments in cancer diagnosis and treatment, there are still numerous problems associated with the pathogenesis of cancer progression, disease recurrence and drug resistance.…”

“…The newest findings have shown that miRNAs play an important role in many signal pathways. Dysregulated expression of several miRNA expressions is associated with a higher malignant potential and poor clinical response to therapy, and analysis of specific miRNA expression patterns can be used to predict chemotherapy efficacy [ 79 , 80 , 81 ]. miRNAs can also be detected in CTCs and contribute to a better understanding of the biology and clinical value of these cells [ 82 ].…”

“…The expression of ncRNAs can be evaluated in LB at targeted-specific level using amplification-based methods such as reverse transcription quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and ddPCR. Of note, the use of ddPCR represents a highly sensitive method to quantify the expression of specific transcripts in LB [ 34 , 35 , 36 ]. In addition, there are other targeted methods such as peptide nucleic acids (PNAs)-based fluorogenic biosensors [ 37 ] and the NanoString nCounter platform that allow for the detection of ncRNA expression levels without the need of previous amplification [ 38 ].…”
