866 DIFFERENTIAL MIRNA EXPRESSION PROFILES IN URINES FROM BLADDER CANCER PATIENTS

Abstract Background The differential expression of miRNAs has played a significant role in bladder tumors. The aim of our study was to screen new biomarkers . Methods Through differential analysis of bladder cancer mRNA and miRNA expression data in the TCGA, differential genes and miRNAs were screened. Furthermore, Cox univariate analysis and multifactor analysis were used to establish a prognostic prediction model . The predictive ability of the prognostic model was then verified on the patient. The action mechanism of these miRNAs was analyzed.Results By the differential analysis and standardization of miRNA expression profiles. Differentially expressed miRNAs were screened, then all the patients were then randomly divided into train group and the test group. 23 miRNAs were revealed , then a Seven-miRNA signature prognostic biomarkers was constituting.Univariate cox regression and multivariate cox regression considering other clinical factors displayed that the seven-miRNA signature could serve as an independent prognostic factor.Target genes of these seven miRNAs were analyzed by KEGG signaling pathway and GO enrichment analysis. . Conclusion The prognostic model constructed by seven miRNAs has possessed certain degree of sensitivity and specificity for the prediction of the survival of bladder cancer patients, which can be used as a potential new clinical marker for bladder cancer patients.

The Impact

micro (mi)-RNAs are vital regulators of multiple processes including insulin signaling pathways and glucose metabolism. Pancreatic β-cells function is dependent on some miRNAs and their target mRNA, which together form a complex regulative network. Several miRNAs are known to be directly involved in β-cells functions such as insulin expression and secretion. These small RNAs may also play significant roles in the fate of β-cells such as proliferation, differentiation, survival and apoptosis. Among the miRNAs, miR-7, miR-9, miR-375, miR-130 and miR-124 are of particular interest due to being highly expressed in these cells. Under diabetic conditions, although no specific miRNA profile has been noticed, the expression of some miRNAs and their target mRNAs are altered by posttranscriptional mechanisms, exerting diverse signs in the pathobiology of various diabetic complications. The aim of this review article is to discuss miRNAs involved in the process of stem cells differentiation into β-cells, resulting in enhanced β-cell functions with respect to diabetic disorders. This paper will also look into the impact of miRNA expression patterns on in vitro proliferation and differentiation of β-cells. The efficacy of the computational genomics and biochemical analysis to link the changes in miRNA expression profiles of stem cell-derived β-cells to therapeutically relevant outputs will be discussed as well.
