Abstract: Abstract. microRNAs (miRs) are endogenous small noncoding RNAs that are aberrantly expressed in various carcinomas. miR-152 and miR-148a have not been comprehensively investigated in ovarian cancer. Thus, the aim of this study was to identify the role of miR-152 and miR-148a in epithelial ovarian cancer. Total RNA was extracted from tissues of 78 patients with epithelial ovarian cancer, 17 normal ovarian epithelium tissues and two ovarian cancer cell lines. Using quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) followed b… Show more

“…Plasma/serum miR-223 together with other miRNAs have been shown to be closely associated with the tumorigenesis and metastasis of gastric carcinoma (25), hepatocellular carcinoma or chronic hepatitis (26), sepsis (27), and lung cancer (28). Dysregulated miR-148a has been reported in ovarian cancer (29), liver injury (30), and gastric cancer (31). …”

“…Of the miRNAs we assayed, miR-152 demonstrated the most significant reversal of expression, an effect consistent for both LNCaP and PC-3 cell lines. Previous reports regarding endometrial cancer [23], gastrointestinal cancer [27], and ovarian cancer [28, 29], and a report relating to PCa [30], published during the preparation of this manuscript, show that miR-152 levels are decreased in more advanced tumors. Analysis of patient data from the Taylor et al study, deposited in the NIH-sponsored Geo database, confirms that miR-152 expression is low in the more advanced primary tumors, with the lowest expression in metastatic samples.…”

“…The miR-148/152 family worked as a suppressor in many kinds of cancer [18-20]. Altered expression of miR-152 in ovarian is related to cell proliferation [21]. In breast cancer, overexpression of miR-152 repressed cell proliferation by targeting IGF-1R and IRS1 to suppress AKT and MAPK signaling pathways [20].…”

“…miR-148a was down-regulated in ovarian cancer cell lines and might be involved in the carcinogenesis of ovarian cancer [21,22]. Previous research reported that overexpression of miR-148b in ovarian cancer tissues was not associated with any of the pathological features of patients with ovarian cancer.…”

“…10,14,28 They have recently been recognized as biomarkers for several diseases including cancer or autoimmune diseases. 10,21 Some authors have reported variation of the expression of microRNAs in plasma or serum during acute rejection after organ transplantation, and noted that they could serve as a minimally invasive diagnostic tool. 3,15 However, there is little recognition or understanding of the role of miRNAs in acute rejection of limb transplantation, even in rats.…”
