MiR-613: a novel diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma

Abstract: MicroRNA-613 (miR-613) plays important roles in tumorigenesis and cancer progression. We aimed to evaluate its expression level and potential for diagnosis and prognosis in esophageal squamous cell cancer (ESCC). We examined miR-613 expression in 60 pairs of ESCC cancerous and matched paracancerous tissues, serum samples from 75 ESCC patients and 75 healthy volunteers, and 105 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue samples using quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Receiver-ope… Show more

“…Previous studies have reported that miR-613 functions as a tumor suppressor in human cancers, including glioma (12), hepatocellular carcinoma (13), non-small cell lung cancer (14) and laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (15). In ESCC, miR-613 has been identified as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for patients (16). However, the molecular mechanism underlying the action of miR-613 in ESCC remains largely unknown.…”

“…To date, various studies have proposed a tumor-suppressive role of miR-613 in many types of cancers. Decreased expression of miR-613 has been suggested as novel diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for esophageal squamous-cell carcinoma (31) and ovarian cancer (32). Fu et al (33) reported that miR-613 suppressed ovarian cancer cell proliferation and invasion through targeting of KRAS.…”
