Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous blood disease with poor treatment effect and high recurrence rate. With the deepening of non-coding RNA research, more and more miRNAs have been found to participate in various physiological processes of tumors. In this study, we tried to find the miRNA related to the prognosis of AML.

Methods: Collect gene expression data and clinical information of AML patients in the Cancer Genome Atlas database for statistical analysis. The expression level of miR-195 of each patient was standardized by logCPM and then produced as a box plot according to subtype classification. TargetScan was used to predict the target genes of miR-195, and these genes were subjected to GO pathway enrichment analysis by Metascape. Differential miRNAs were screened through the DESeq2 package in the R language. Survival rates were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method and the log-rank test. The multivariate Cox proportional hazard models of EFS and OS were established.

Results: We found that the expression of miR-195 was the lowest in cytogenetically normal (CN-) AML, and high expression of miR-195 only promoted the prognosis of chemotherapy-only CN-AML patients (EFS: P = 0.016; OS: P = 0.035). Multivariate analysis showed that miR-195 was a favorable and independent factor for CN-AML (both P < 0.05). Further analysis showed that miR-195 may affect signal transduction through ANHAK2 in AML.

Conclusion: We found that high expression of miR-195 can increase prognosis time of chemotherapy-only CN-AML patients, providing a new possibility for treatment.

Liposarcoma is one of the most prevalent forms of soft tissue sarcoma, and its prognosis is highly dependent on its molecular subtypes. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) like microRNAs (miRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) can bind various cellular targets to regulate carcinogenesis. By affecting the expressions and activities of their downstream targets post-transcriptionally, dysregulations of miRNAs can alter different oncogenic signalling pathways, mediating liposarcoma progression.

Abnormal microRNA expression profile at early stages of gestation in pregnancies destined to develop placenta previa.

Front Med (Lausanne)

December 2024

Institute for the Care of the Mother and Child, Third Faculty of Medicine, Charles University, Prague, Czechia.

Article Synopsis
  • Placenta previa is a condition where the placenta implants abnormally in the lower uterus, leading to serious risks for both the mother and fetus, including hemorrhage and stillbirth.
  • This study focused on analyzing microRNA expression in the blood during the first trimester of pregnancies that later developed placenta previa, comparing them to normal pregnancies.
  • The results showed that several microRNAs were downregulated in those pregnancies, with a combination of seven specific microRNAs accurately distinguishing between healthy and placenta previa pregnancies early on.

Therapeutic potential of SMAD7 targeting miRNA in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy.

Arch Biochem Biophys

December 2024

Department of Biotechnology, School of Bioengineering, SRM Institute of Science and Technology, Kattankulathur, 603 203, Tamil Nadu, India. Electronic address:

Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a common complication of diabetes and a leading cause of end-stage renal disease, characterized by progressive kidney fibrosis and inflammation. The transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) signaling pathway plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of diabetes nephropathy, and SMAD7 is a key negative regulator of this pathway. Recent studies have highlighted the involvement of miRNA in the progression of DN.

Background: Breast cancer (BC) is the prevailing malignant tumor, with its prevalence and death rate steadily rising over time. BC often does not show obvious symptoms in its early stages and is difficult to distinguish from benign breast disease. We aimed to find a distinct group of miRNAs utilizing serum as a non-invasive biomarker for early BC diagnosis.

Background: A significant research gap exists regarding the role of tissue exosomes in intrauterine adhesions (IUAs). This study aims to investigate the involvement of miR-195-5p and its regulatory network in IUAs through the analysis of tissue exosomes.

Methods: Exosomes from rat uterine tissue with intrauterine adhesions were analyzed via transcriptomics to identify downstream target genes of miR-195-5p, cross-referencing with the human endometrial transcriptomics database GSE224093.
