摘要

BACKGROUND The relationship between micro RNAs,such as miR-654-5 p and miR-376 b-3 p,and the prognosis of colon cancer has not been studied until now.AIM To evaluate the expression levels of miR-654-5 p and miR-376 b-3 p and their clinical significance in colon cancer.METHODS RT-q PCR was performed to evaluate miR-654-5 p and miR-376 b-3 p expression in34 pairs of colon cancer and adjacent noncancerous tissues.Subsequently,the association of miR-654-5 p and miR-376 b-3 p expression with clinical factors or the survival of patients suffering from colon cancer was determined by using The Cancer Genome Atlas.RESULTS miR-654-5 p was upregulated and miR-376 b-3 p was downregulated in colon cancer tissues compared with adjacent noncancerous tissues(P<0.001).Increased miR-654-5 p and decreased miR-376 b-3 p expression levels weresignificantly associated with metastasis and clinical stage.Moreover,a univariate analysis demonstrated that colon cancer patients with high miR-654-5 p or low miR-376 b-3 p expression(P=0.044 and 0.007,respectively)had a poor overall survival rate.A multivariate analysis identified high miR-654-5 p expression and low miR-376 b-3 p expression as independent predictors of poor survival in colon cancer patients.CONCLUSION Upregulated miR-654-5 p and downregulated miR-376 b-3 p may be associated with tumour progression in colon cancer,and these micro RNAs may serve as independent prognostic markers for colon cancer.
