Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To explore the expression level of miR-196a in cervical cells infected with high-risk human papillomavirus(HPV)16 and 18.METHODS The Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO)was used to screen for dif-ferentially expressed miRNAs between HPV 16 or 18-positive cervical cancer cells and normal cervical cells.On-line biological software https://kmplot.com/analysis/was utilized to analyze the relationship between the most differentially expressed miRNA and the overall survival of cervical cancer patients.Cervical swab samples positive for HPV 16 or HPV 18,detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction(qPCR)genoty-ping,were collected as the study subjects.Cervical swab samples from the same period of physical examination population that were negative for HPV 16 or HPV 18 by qPCR genotyping served as negative controls.The qRT-PCR method was employed to detect the level of miR-196a in cervical cells,with data processed via the 2-△△Ctmethod.RESULTS Differential analysis of the GSE86100 data revealed that miR-196a expression de-creased in HPV 16 or HPV 18-positive cervical cells(log2FC=-6.60,P＜0.001),while miR-3188 expression significantly increased(log2FC=6.22,P＜0.001).Using online analysis tools https://kmplot.com/analysis,it was found that cervical cancer patients with high miR-196a expression had a shorter overall survival compared to those with low m iR-196a expression(HR=1.87,95％CI:1.17-3.00,P=0.008).H owever,there was no cor-relation between miR-3188 and the overall survival of cervical cancer patients(HR=1.47,95％CI:0.92-2.37,P=0.110).The results of specific qRT-PCR testing showed that the expression levels of miR-196a in cervical cells positive for HPV 16 and HPV 18 were 0.93±0.09 and 0.51±0.07,respectively,which were lower than those in the normal control group(1.89±0.13)(P＜0.05),consistent with the sequencing analysis results CONCLUSIONS Infection of cervical cells with HPV 16 or HPV 18 can lead to decreased expression of miR-196a,and the expres-sion level of miR-196a is negatively correlated with the overall survival of cervical cancer patients.
