Abstract:
Objective To determine the expression levels of serum miR-25 in the patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC),and evaluate its clinical significance in the screening of NSCLC.Methods Serum samples from 82 untreated NSCLC patients,including 4 with TNM satge Ⅰ,10 with TNM stage Ⅱ,11 with TNM stage Ⅲ,53 with TNM stage Ⅳ and 4 with unknown stage,and 82 healthy controls with matched age and gender were collected,and the levels of miR-25 in these samples were determined by quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR).The diagnostic value of miR-25 in NSCLC was evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.Results Serum miR-25 levels in NSCLC patients were significantly higher than that in healthy controls (0.017 ± 0.028 vs 0.004 ±0.004,t =4.098,P <0.01).The area under the ROC curve (AUGROC),sensitivity and specificity of miR-25 for the diagnosis of NSCLC were 0.818 (95% CI:0.753-0.882),70.7% and 80.7%,respectively.In addition,the AUCROC,sensitivity and specificity of serum miR-25 for the screening of stage Ⅰ/Ⅱ NSCLC were 0.852 (95% CI:0.728-0.976),78.6% and 87.8%,respectively.Logistic regression analysis showed that miR-25 was an independent risk factor of NSCLC (OR =10.84,95% CI:5.07-23.19,P < 0.01).Conclusion Serum miR-25 levels in NSCLC patients increase significantly,indicating that it may be a novel molecular biomarker for the screening of NSCLC.
