Abstract:
The diagnostic value of microRNAs (miRNAs) for breast cancer (BC) is largely unknown. Here, our research aim was to explore new circulating miRNAs for BC diagnosis. First, we identified 14 common differentially expressed miRNAs in tissues by TCGA_BRCA and GSE97811 datasets and preliminarily validated them in serum by the GSE73002 dataset. Furthermore, we examined three plasma miRNAs in BC patients (n = 108) and healthy subjects (n = 103) by RT–PCR, namely, hsa-miR-100-5p, hsa-miR-191-5p and hsa-miR-342-3p. The levels of these three miRNAs in BC patients were higher than those in healthy controls (p 〈 0.05). The ROC curve analysis revealed that these three miRNAs had high diagnostic efficacy for BC and early-stage BC. The combination of hsa-miR-100-5p and hsa-miR-191-5p was the optimal combination for the diagnosis of BC and early-stage BC. Additionally, hsa-miR-100-5p was correlated with stage I–II, T1 stage, N0 stage and Luminal A subtype (p 〈 0.05). Hsa-miR-191-5p and hsa-miR-342-3p were irrelevant to TNM stage, T stage, N stage and molecular subtypes. Meanwhile, the biological function analysis indicated that these three miRNAs are mainly involved in the calcium signaling pathway, MAPK signaling pathway and microRNAs in cancer. In conclusion, these three miRNAs demonstrate a positive effect on detection and discovery in BC.
