The Rectal Cancer microRNAome – microRNA Expression in Rectal Cancer and Matched Normal Mucosa

Abstract: Purpose: miRNAs play a prominent role in a variety of physiologic and pathologic biologic processes, including cancer. For rectal cancers, only limited data are available on miRNA expression profiles, whereas the underlying genomic and transcriptomic aberrations have been firmly established. We therefore, aimed to comprehensively map the miRNA expression patterns of this disease.Experimental Design: Tumor biopsies and corresponding matched mucosa samples were prospectively collected from 57 patients with local… Show more

“…Our observations explain why miR-135b upregulation is consistently observed in human and mouse CRC (Nagel et al, 2008;Gaedcke et al, 2012), making this miR a robust and reproducible biomarker. Our findings complement those of a recent report that identifies miR-135b as one of the most upregulated miRs in Apc min/+ mice (Necela et al, 2011), suggesting that miR-135b deregulation is independent of the specific Apc mutation or site of inactivation.…”

“…We analyzed 454 sporadic and 31 inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)-associated CRCs to confirm miR-135b upregulation previously reported in smaller CRC cohorts (Necela et al, 2011;Nagel et al, 2008;Gaedcke et al, 2012). A first set including 62 sporadic CRCs was analyzed for miR-135b expression by RT-PCR.…”

“…miR-652 has been demonstrated to identify stage I-II breast cancer patients and to correlate with TP53, suggesting a potential role for this miRNA as prognostic biomarker (20). While the biological role of miR-652 has not been clarified in breast cancer yet, there is evidence that demonstrates the oncogenic properties of this miRNA in other cancer types (21)(22)(23). Finally, ER has been found to be a direct target of miR-18b.…”

“…miR-144 has been revealed to be involved in multiple types of human malignancy (4,5). In addition, miR-144 was reported to act as a tumor suppressor in certain types of cancer, including bladder (4), non-small cell lung (6) and colorectal (7) cancer.…”
