Abstract Background: The expression of non-coding RNAs were closely related to breast cancer progression. However, there were no systemic analysis of non-coding RNAs in breast cancer diagnosis of the blood circulatory system. Herein, we aimed to collect all the evidence to test the potential role of non-coding RNAs as novel biomarkers in human breast cancers. Methods: A comprehensive search strategy was used to search relevant literatures in the Web of Science, PubMed, and Embase databases from January 2012 to November 2019. The correlation of non-coding RNAs expression in serum, plasma or blood circulatory system and the diagnostic accuracy of BC markers were analyzed. The methodological quality of each study was assessed using the QUADAS-2. Statistical analysis was used the STATA (version 12.0), Meta-Disc (version 1.4) and Review Manager (version 5.3) software. Results: The present meta-analysis of the non-coding RNAs expression data of BC patients and healthy specimens’ bloodfrom 2392 patients in 24 publications (32 studies). The pooled sensitivity, specificity, and AUC values were 0.82, 0.83, and 0.89, respectively. Subgroup analyses showed that the expression of non-coding RNA (miRNA, circRNA, andlncRNA) in the blood circulatory system (including blood, plasma, and serum) of BC was more prone to be detected in TNM stage and subtype of BC group, with a high value of the sensitivity and AUC. Conclusions: The blood circulatory system (including blood, plasma, and serum) of miRNAs, circRNAs, and lncRNAs detection may be effective for diagnosing breast cancer, particularly in TNM stage, subtype of BC (ER/PgR, PR or HER2/c-erbB-2) group of breast cancer. Further studies are needed to identify the value of these non-coding RNAs as novel markers in clinical.

Abstract Background: Lots of non-coding RNAs expression affected breast cancer progression. However, there were no systemic analysis of non-coding RNAs for breast cancer diagnosis in circulatory system. Herein, we aimed to collect all the evidence to test the potential role of non-coding RNAs as novel biomarker in human breast cancers. Methods: A comprehensive search strategy was used to search relevant literatures in the Web of Science, PubMed, and Embase databases from 2012 to November 2019.

Conclusions: The circulating (including blood, plasma, and serum) level of miRNAs, circRNAs, and lncRNAs for breast cancer diagnosis may be effective, particularly in TNM stage, subtype of BC (ER/PgR, PR or HER2/c-erbB-2) breast cancer. Further prospective studies on the diagnostic value of non-coding RNAs from breast cancer are needed in the future.

Taking the issue of tumor categorization a step forward and establish molecular imprints to accompany histopathological assessment is a challenging task. This is important since often patients with similar clinical and pathological tumors may respond differently to a given treatment. Protease-activated receptor-1 (PAR1), a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), is the first member of the mammalian PAR family consisting of four genes. PAR1 and PAR2 play a central role in breast cancer. The release of N-terminal peptides during activation and the exposure of a cryptic internal ligand in PARs, endow these receptors with the opportunity to serve as a “mirror-image” index reflecting the level of cell surface PAR1&2-in body fluids. It is possible to use the levels of PAR-released peptide in patients and accordingly determine the choice of treatment. We have both identified PAR1 C-tail as a scaffold site for the immobilization of signaling partners, and the critical minimal binding site. This binding region may be used for future therapeutic modalities in breast cancer, since abrogation of the binding inhibits PAR1 induced breast cancer. Altogether, both PAR1 and PAR2 may serve as molecular probes for breast cancer diagnosis and valuable targets for therapy.

AbstractBreast cancer is the most common cancer in women worldwide. Minimally invasive percutaneous image-guided biopsies are the current cornerstone in the diagnosis of breast lesions detected on mammography/ultrasonography/MRI or palpable clinically. However, apparently benign breast disease seen on benign biopsies is a limiting factor for diagnosis and a risk factor of breast cancer especially in the high-risk category patients. Hypothesizing that molecular changes often occur before morphological variations, the levels of the LncRNA H19 were measured in anonymous tissues obtained from 79 women’s image guided breast biopsies, and correlated with cancer progression and aggressiveness. Using a double-blinded approach, H19 might be attributed an interesting role of a more sensitive biomarker in core breast biopsies, independently of the radiological/clinical classification and distant from the clinical management. We established different thresholds for H19 levels in normal versus proliferative, versus malignant tissues. Additionnally, H19 could act as an intra-group risk marker categorizing the biopsies in normal versus benign, versus precancerous breast tissue, and as a prognostic factor in cancerous lesions discriminating aggressive versus nonaggressive lesions. Our study suggests that the lncRNA H19 could be a potential marker for breast cancer diagnosis, prognosis and risk management.

Breast cancer pharmacogenetics is increasingly being explored due to chemotherapy resistance among certain classes of patients. The ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporter genes have been previously implicated in breast cancer progression and drug response. In the present study, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from the ABCC1, ABCC2, ABCB1, and ABCG2 genes were screened in breast cancer patients and healthy volunteers from the Jordanian-Arab population. Only the ABCB1 SNPs showed a significant association with BC in Jordanian-Arab patients, and the ABCB1 SNP rs2032582 exhibited a strong genotypic association with BC. With regard to the clinical characteristics of BC, the ABCC2 SNPs rs2273697 and rs717620 were found to be significantly associated with age at breast cancer diagnosis and breastfeeding status, while the ABCB1 SNP rs1045642 was significantly associated with age at breast cancer diagnosis. In terms of pathological characteristics, the ABCC1 SNP rs35628 and the ABCB1 SNP rs2032582 were significantly associated with tumor size, the ABCC2 SNP rs2273697 was significantly associated with estrogen receptor status, and the ABCG2 SNP rs2231142 was significantly associated with axillary lymph node status. In this current study, we assume that significant genetic variants within the ABC superfamily may increase the risk of breast cancer among Jordanian women. Furthermore, these variants might be responsible for worse BC prognosis.
