This document reviews microRNAs (miRNAs) related to the occurrence, diagnosis, and prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It discusses how some miRNAs act as oncogenes in NSCLC by promoting proliferation, migration, and invasion through targeting tumor suppressor genes. Other miRNAs act as tumor suppressors by inhibiting oncogenes. The expression levels of certain miRNAs have diagnostic and prognostic value for NSCLC. Some miRNAs show potential as biomarkers for early detection of NSCLC or for distinguishing NSCLC subtypes. Circulating miRNAs may also serve as biomarkers for cancer detection and prognosis. Single nucleotide polymorphisms in miRNA genes have been associated with survival in NSCLC patients.

BACKGROUND: Sequential Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)–positive B cell lymphoma to the initial diagnosis of angioimmunoblastic T cell lymphoma (AITL) is very rare, the exact mechanism and standard therapy of which is still being explored. CASE: A 50-year-old man was admitted to our hospital in January 2014 with a three-week history of enlargement of multiple lymph nodes. His initial pathological evaluation indicated AILT. The reactivation of EBV was observed during the immunosuppression therapy for AITL, accompanied by onset of subcutaneous nodules proven to be EBV-positive diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) based on the pathological findings of rebiopsy. The patient was successfully treated with chidamide, a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor, and rituximab.
Conclusion: The sufficient surveillance for serum EBV and repeat biopsy is necessary for patients with AITL, and this treatment modality may become an active option.
Keywords: angioimmunoblastic T cell lymphoma, Epstein-Barr virus, HDAC inhibitor, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, peripheral T cell lymphoma
Objective: Tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC) is a prominent type of oral cancer. Despite the numerous research studies on SCC and microRNAs (miRs), the relation between TSCC and miR-135b-5p is poorly discussed. This experiment aims to find out the possible effect of miR-135b-5p on TSCC with the network of its downstream genes.
Study Design: TSCC tissues and adjacent normal tissues were harvested. Then, expression of miR-135b-5p and AT-rich interactive domain‑containing protein 1A gene (ARID1A) and the phosphatidyl inositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/AKT) pathway was analyzed. After the transfection of miR-135b-5p inhibitor and its negative control into TSCC cells, functional assays were employed to measure cell proliferation, apoptosis, and cycle. Next, the target relation between miR-135b-5p and ARID1A was confirmed. In addition, the fact that miR-135b-5p promoted TSCC development via mediating ARID1A was demonstrated by functional rescue experiment.
Results: miR-135b-5p was upregulated in TSCC tissues and cells, while ARID1A was suppressed (p< 0.05). Silenced miR-135b-5p discouraged TSCC cell proliferation, improved apoptosis, induced cell cycle arrest, and increased ARID1A expression while inactivating the PI3K/AKT axis (p<0.05). Furthermore, knockdown of ARID1A reversed the impacts on TSCC cell proliferation and apoptosis exerted by silencing miR-135b-5p.
Conclusion: This research supported that silenced miR-135b-5p impeded TSCC proliferation and apoptosis by promoting ARID1A and inactivating the PI3K/AKT axis, which may provide some indications for TSCC alleviation.

Molecular profiling of tumors promises to advance the clinical
management of cancer, but the benefits of integrating
molecular data with traditional clinical variables have not been
systematically studied. Here we retrospectively predict patient
survival using diverse molecular data (somatic copy-number
alteration, DNA methylation and mRNA, microRNA and protein
expression) from 953 samples of four cancer types from The
Cancer Genome Atlas project. We find that incorporating
molecular data with clinical variables yields statistically
significantly improved predictions (FDR < 0.05) for three
cancers but those quantitative gains were limited (2.2–23.9%).
Additional analyses revealed little predictive power across
tumor types except for one case. In clinically relevant genes,
we identified 10,281 somatic alterations across 12 cancer types
in 2,928 of 3,277 patients (89.4%), many of which would
not be revealed in single-tumor analyses. Our study provides
a starting point and resources, including an open-access
model evaluation platform, for building reliable prognostic and
therapeutic strategies that incorporate molecular data

paraphrase the review in your own words?
The tumor suppressor PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted from chromosome 10), is
a lipid phosphatase that converts phosphatidylinositol-3, 4, 5- triphosphate (PIP3) into
phosphatidylinositol (4, 5)- diphosphate (PIP2). PTEN is well-known as the most highly mutated
tumor suppressor gene in the p53-post era [66, 67]. Recently, three papers by Nadav Bar and
Rivka Dikstein, Linhua Liu and colleagues, and Laura Poliseno and colleagues, have
demonstrated that PTEN was a bona fide target of miR-22 in a small cohort of cancer cell lines
that are driven from breast cancer, cervical cancer, prostate cancer, and bronchial epithelial
cancer. These studies contradict a uniform role of miR-22, indicating that under certain
circumstances, miR-22 may function as an oncogene because of its antagonistic effects on tumor
suppressive PTEN signaling [26, 68, 69] (Fig. 3). Using various miRNA target prediction
programs and/or RNAhybrid program for evaluating the minimum free energy hybridization,
these three groups all found that miR-22-PTEN was a high scoring miRNA-target pair. Enforced
or reduced expression of miR-22 in human HEK293T, cervical cancer HeLa and breast cancer
MCF-7 cell lines (Nadav Bar and Rivka Dikstein), anti-benzo[a]pyrene-7, 8-diol-9, 10-epoxide
(anti-BPDE)-induced transformed human bronchial epithelial cancer cell line 16HBE-T (Linhua
Liu and colleagues) and prostate cancer cell line DU145 (Laura Poliseno and colleagues),
revealed that miR-22 negatively regulated PTEN protein expression. Intriguingly, an inverse
correlation between miR-22 and PTEN mRNA expression has been presented by Poliseno et al.,
while Liu et al. found that there was no change of PTEN mRNA expression regardless of miR-
22 levels. A similarly inverse association of miR-22 and J. Xiong PTEN protein levels was
observed in 16HBE-T and its parental normal cell line16HBE (Linhua Liu and colleagues), and
in several prostate cancer cell lines, prostate cell lines and a prostate tumor tissue microarray
(Laura Poliseno and colleagues). Furthermore, the mature levels of miR-22 were significantly
increased in these tumor cells versus their normal counterparts. In line with this result, a direct
correlation between miR-22 expression and phosphorylated AKT or between the expression of
miR- 22 and that of DICER was also identified by Laura Poliseno and colleagues. These three
groups all showed that an intact binding site at the 3’UTR of PTEN mRNA was required for
miR-22 targeting. Functional analyses showed that miR-22 could induce apoptosis, inhibited
colony formation and suppressed motility of bronchial epithelial cancer cells (Linhua Liu and
colleagues), and intrinsically promote prostate cancer cell growth and tumorigenesis in tumor-
bearing nude mice (Laura Poliseno and colleagues). Subsequently, the influence of miR-22 on
the downstream signaling of PTEN was tested. Bar et al. showed that miR-22 could stimulate
AKT activity, and i.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

Abstract
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the main most common type of lung cancer, accounting for about 80%
of all cases. The five-year survival rate of patients with NSCLC is usually less than 20%. MicroRNAs (miRNAs),
a type of small non-coding RNA, are closely related to the development and occurrence of tumors, including
NSCLC. Here, we reviewed the miRNAs related to the occurrence, diagnosis and prognosis of NSCLC.

ing with the target gene mRNA 3’UTR; thus they play
an important role in the development of tumors and
in tumor therapy research [7]
. Studies have shown that
miRNAs have specific expression profiles in NSCLC,
and serve as oncogenes or tumor-suppressor genes to
promote or inhibit NSCLC cell proliferation, migration,
and invasion [8]
. In addition, miRNAs can be used for
the early detection, prognosis, radio-sensitivity and
chemo-sensitivity prediction of NSCLC [9]
.
In this review, we summarized the miRNAs associated
with carcinogenesis and cancer suppression in NSCLC
and emphasized miRNAs’ potential as biomarkers for
clinical diagnosis, prognosis and treatment.
MIRNAS IN THE OCCURRENCE AND
DEVELOPMENT OF NSCLC
With the development of molecular biology technol-
ogy, miRNA has gradually become a research hotspot,
which provides a new direction for tumor research.
Many studies have shown that miRNAs can serve as
oncogenes or tumor suppressor genes to affect their
target genes and signaling pathway activities, playing
an important role in the occurrence and development
of NSCLC [10,11]
.
MiRNAs as oncogenes in NSCLC
It has been demonstrated that miR-221 is aberrantly
up-regulated in NSCLC tissues and NSCLC cells com-
pared to normal tissues and cells, and has an oncogen-
ic role by directly targeting TIMP2 [12]
. MiR-1285-5p
promotes the proliferation, migration and invasion of
NSCLC cells via down-regulating the two genes, Smad4
and CDH1 [13]

INTRODUCTION
Lung cancer is a malignant tumor with the highest
morbidity and mortality rates in the world. According
to the International Agency for Research on Cancer [1]
,
1.82 million new cases of lung cancer were diagnosed
worldwide in 2012, ranking first among all malignant
tumors; the incidence and mortality rates of lung can-
cer in China are similarly alarming [2,3]
. Non-small cell
lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common type of lung
cancer, accounting for about 80% of all lung cancers [4]
.
NSCLC is mainly divided into squamous cell carcinoma,
adenocarcinoma, adenosquamous carcinoma, large-
cell lung cancer, and sarcomatoid carcinoma. Due to
the lack of obvious clinical manifestations in its early
stages, NSCLC is typically discovered late in the disease
process; as a result, the prognosis of NSCLC is poor,
and the five-year survival rate is usually less than 20%
[5]
. Therefore, studying the mechanism of NSCLC occur-
rence and development is crucial for the diagnosis and
treatment of NSCLC.
MicroRNA (miRNA) is a type of small molecule non-
coding RNA with a length of about 18‒25 base pairs,
which regulate gene expression after transcription.
It has been reported that miRNAs are abnormally ex-
pressed in a variety of tumors, and the dysregulated
miRNAs may serve as tumor promoters or inhibitors [6]
.
MiRNAs can regulate cell proliferation, differentiation
and apoptosis through complete or incomplete match-

661 was up-regulated in NSCLC tissues compared with
the paired adjacent tissues, and miR-661 promoted
tumor invasion and metastasis by directly inhibiting
RB1 in NSCLC. Huang et al. [16]
showed that miR-10b
expression levels were higher in NSCLC tissues com-
pared with an adjacent normal tissue control, and it
could promote cancer cell progress by accelerating
NSCLC’s cell cycle progression in the G0/G1 phase and
suppressing cell apoptosis. Apaf-1 is associated with
the suppression of apoptosis. In NSCLC cells, miR-484
accelerates the cell progression by inhibiting Apaf-
1 expression [17]
. MiR-19 can enhance proliferation
and inhibit apoptosis via the EGFR signaling pathway
by targeting PP2A and BIM in NSCLC [18]
. In addition,
Zeng et al. [19]
demonstrated that miR-205 promoted
NSCLC cell growth in vitro and in vivo, which was re-
lated to Smad4. Sun et al. [20]
reported that miR-346
contributed to NSCLC growth and invasion in vitro and
in vivo by regulating the XPC/ERK/Snail/E-cadherin
pathway. MiR-1297 functions as a tumor promoter in
NSCLC cells by targeting the PTEN/Akt/Skp2 signal-
ing pathway [21]
. MiR-106a also promotes the growth
and metastasis of NSCLC by targeting PTEN [22]
. These
oncogenic miRNAs and their targets in NSCLC are
summarized in Table 1. According to the previous-
ly mentioned, we expect that when miRNA is highly
expressed in NSCLC, it can play a positive role in pro-
moting the occurrence and development of a tumor by
inhibiting the expression of tumor suppressors, thus
playing an oncogene role.
MiRNAs as tumor-suppressor genes in NSCLC
Apart from their roles as tumor promoters, some
miRNAs function as tumor suppressors by targeting
oncogenes. In NSCLC tissues and cell lines, miR-376a
was significantly downregulated; the overexpression
of miR-376a could inhibit cell proliferation and inva-
sion and alsp increase cell apoptosis by decreasing the
mRNA and protein levels of c-Myc [23]
. MiRNA-183 has
been considered a tumor suppressor, which can inhibit
the proliferation, migration and invasion of NSCLC cells
by targeting MTA1 [24]
. MiR-142-3p can inhibit NSCLC
cell proliferation and induces cell apoptosis through
the down-regulation of HMGB1 [25]
. MiRNA-204 is sig-
nificantly reduced in NSCLC tissues as compared to
non-neoplastic tissues, and miRNA-204 can suppress
NSCLC cell proliferation and migration, and induce
apoptosis and G1 arrest through negatively regulating
JAK2 [26]
or ATF2 [27]
.
In addition, Zhang et al. [28]
reported that the low ex-
pression of miR-770 was correlated with poor patient
survival in NSCLC, while miR-770 overexpression
was capable of inhibiting NSCLC tumor growth by
down-regulating JMJD6 and its downstream WNT/
β-catenin pathway both in vitro and in vivo. Chen et al.
[29]
demonstrated that the mTOR signaling pathway was
dysregulated in more than 50% of all human malignan-
cies and was a major target in cancer treatment, miR-
145-3p inhibits cell growth, motility, and chemotaxis
in NSCLC through suppression of the mTOR pathway
by targeting PDK1. Zhou et al. [30]
revealed that miR-
135a promoted cell apoptosis and inhibited cell pro-
liferation, migration, invasion and tumor angiogenesis
by targeting the IGF-1 gene through the IGF-1/PI3K/
Akt signaling pathway in NSCLC. Jiang et al. [31]
showed
that miR-1258 could inhibit NSCLC cell proliferation
and induced senescence and apoptosis via targeting
the GRB2/Ras/Erk pathway. Furthermore, miR-542-
3p exerts tumor suppressive functions in NSCLC by
down-regulating FTSJ2 [32]
. MiR-509-5p decreases cell
proliferation, migration, and the invasive capability of
NSCLC cells by negatively regulating FOXM1 expression
[33]
. MiR-194 also suppresses tumor growth through
function as a negative regulator of CUL4B in ESCC [34]
.

Glycolysis has been considered a feature of cancer
cells; Akt is a key enzyme in the regulation of glycolysis
and energy metabolism in cancer cells. It has been de-
termined that miR-124 is able to inhibit proliferation,
glycolysis, and energy metabolism by targeting AKT-
GLUT1/HKII in NSCLC cells [35]
. VEGFs are important
mediators of angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis
during tumor development [36]
. MiR-128 can suppress
tumorigenesis, angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis in
ESCC through down-regulating VEGF-C [37]
. The afore-
mentioned tumor-suppressor miRNAs and their tar-
gets in NSCLC are summarized in Table 2. According to
these studies, when miRNA expression is significantly
reduced in NSCLC, it can regulate the growth of tumors
by inhibiting the related oncogenes and tumor factors.
However, the relationship between miRNAs and NSCLC,
especially the delicate mechanism of gene expression
regulation of miRNAs, is still unclear. Studies on these
issues sholud gradually clarify the mechanism of the
occurrence and development of NSCLC and may also
provide new methods for the early diagnosis and treat-
ment of NSCLC.
CLINICAL APPLICATIONS OF MIRNAS
IN NSCLC
Diagnostic value of miRNAs in NSCLC
At present, the sensitivity and specificity of serum tu-
mor markers are relatively low in the clinical diagnosis
of patients with NSCLC, especially in the early stage of
NSCLC. It is easy to misdiagnose or miss a diagnosis,
delaying the optimum time for treatment. Profiling
research has revealed the potential value of miRNAs
for the early detection and screening of NSCLC. For
example, Świtlik et al. [38]
showed that miR-30a-5p
and miR-210-3p could be used to discriminate NSCLC
tissue from non-cancerous lung tissues. Geng et al. [39]
reported that five plasma miRNAs (miR-20a, miR-145,
miR-21, miR-223 and miR-221) could be used as po-
tential biomarkers in early screening for NSCLC. Zhu et
al. [40]
validated that the serum levels of three miRNAs
(miR-182, miR-183, and miR-210) were significantly
up-regulated and the miR-126 level was markedly
down-regulated in NSCLC patients, which could serve
as tumor biomarkers for early diagnosis of NSCLC.
Moreover, miRNAs can also function as biomarkers for
the classification of NSCLC. For example, Jin et al. [41]
demonstrated that miR-181-5p, miR-30a-3p, miR-30e-
3p, and miR-361-5p were adenocarcinoma-specific,
while miR-10b-5p, miR-15b-5p, and miR-320b were
SCC-specific. Molina-Pinelo et al. [42]
showed that nine
miRNAs were differentially expressed in SCC versus
adenocarcinoma samples. Of these, six miRNAs (miR-
205, miR-149, miR-422a, miR-708, miR-378, and miR-
375) were validated.
Furthermore, circulating miRNAs are also promising
biomarkers for cancer detection. In NSCLC, a multi-
centric case-control study revealed that a five-miRNA
panel, including miR-483-5p, miR-193a-3p, miR-25,
miR-214, and miR-7 could serve as a potential bio-
marker for diagnosing NSCLC in patients of different
races, even in the early stages of cancer. Of the five
miRNAs, miR-483-5p, miR-193a-3p, and miR-25 are
tumor cell growth/cycle-related miRNAs. MiR-7 is a
tissue-specific miRNA, and miR-214 may be catego-
rized as an immune response-related miRNA [43]
. Gial-
lombardo et al. [44]
showed that eight plasma exosomal
miRNAs, (miR-30b, miR-30c, miR-103, miR-122, miR-

adjacent region of miR-5197-5p, which was associated
with improved survival for late-stage NSCLC patients;
another SNP, rs7522956, is located in the loop se-
quences of the miR-4742 gene, and it was significantly
associated with the survival of early stage NSCLC pa-
tients.
Several recent studies have demonstrated that exoso-
mal miRNAs may serve as prognostic biomarkers for
NSCLC. Liu and his coworkers used a qPCR array panel,
and found that increased levels of exosomal miR-23b-
3p, miR-10b-5p and miR-21-5p were independently
associated with a poor overall survival rate for NSCLC.
[54]
Kanaoka et al. [55]
identified that high plasma exo-
somal miR-451a might be a prognostic factor for the
overall survival of NSCLC patients.
Taken together, these studies show the prognostic val-
ue of miRNAs in NSCLC. Nevertheless, to avoid poten-
tial biases and limitations, additional validation is still
necessary in large patient populations.
MiRNAs for overcoming treatment resistance of NSCLC
Radio- and chemo-resistance hinders success in treat-
ing NSCLC. MiRNAs are considered to be resistant
against radio- and chemo-therapy in certain types of
cancers, including NSCLC.
Radiotherapy
Several studies have identified miRNAs as a predictive
biomarker for radiation-resistance in NSCLC. Salim et
al. [56]
suggested that miRNA-214 could be a putative
regulator of radiation-resistance, and miRNA-214 over-
expression induced radio-resistance of NSCLC cells.
Ma et al. [57]
showed that miR-95 was highly expressed
in recurrent NSCLC cells, so a decrease could enhance
the radio-sensitivity of NSCLC. Yin and his colleagues
[58]
. reported that overexpression of miR-99a increased
radio-sensitivity, while inhibition of miR-99a induced
radio-resistance of NSCLC cell lines in vitro and in
vivo, and the role was at least partially mediated by
the mTOR signaling pathway. Furthermore, miR-21 ex-
pression is increased in NSCLC; when down-regulated,
it can promote NSCLC cell apoptosis induced by irradi-
ation, which indicates that miR-21 may be a potential
target for overcoming the radio-resistance of NSCLC [59]
.
MiR-328-3p is reduced in NSCLC tissues. Up-regulation
of miR-328-3p can restore the sensitivity of NSCLC
cells to radio therapy, suggesting miR-328-3p may act
as a radio-sensitizer for NSCLC therapy [60]
. In addition,
plasma miRNAs may serve as novel biomarkers for
predicting the clinical response of NSCLC radiother-
apy. Bioinformatical analysis and clinical verification
revealed that four plasma miRNAs (miR-98-5p, miR-
302e, miR-495-3p, and miR-613) could be used as ra-
dio-sensitivity indicators in patients with NSCLC [61]
.
195, miR-203, miR-221, and miR-222) were correlated
with NSCLC.
The studies described above clearly suggest that ab-
normal miRNAs expressions can be used as diagnostic
tools in NSCLC. However, due to the differences in
methodology and quality control, as well as the limited
number of microRNAs and samples studied, existing
studies generally lack repeatability. Therefore, better
research strategies and more detailed work will be re-
quired in the near future.
The prognostic value of miRNAs in NSCLC
Recently, many studies have reported that some miR-
NAs can be used as prognostic markers in NSCLC. A
meta-analysis provided evidence that the high expres-
sion miR-21, miR-200c, and miR-125b was negatively
associated with survival in NSCLC patients, while the
high expression of miR-148b, miR-365, miR-124, miR-
32, miR-146a, and miR-375 was significantly associat-
ed with a better prognosis [45]
. Wang and his colleagues
identified that 11 miRNAs, as well as their target
genes and transcription factors, may be profitable in
the prognostic prediction of NSCLC as biomarkers. In
NSCLC blood samples, Wang et al. [46]
found that serum
miR-98 expression was down-regulated in patients
with NSCLC, and the decreased serum miR-98 was
positively correlated with a worse TNM stage, lymph
node metastasis, as well as unfavorable overall sur-
vival. Guo et al. [47]
showed that a decreased miR-204
level in plasma is associated with a poor prognosis in
NSCLC patients. Wang and his coworkers [48]
revealed
that high serum miR-411 expression could serve as
a non-invasive prognostic biomarker for NSCLC pa-
tients. In NSCLC tissues, Li et al. [49]
report that miR-
146 is highly expressed in cancer tissues, which can be
used to predicts the prognosis of NSCLC. Wang et al. [46]
reveal that there is an obviously down-regulated miR-
148b expression in NSCLC tissues, and the low miR-
148b expression is closely related with poor survival
of NSCLC patients. Zhang et al. [50]
demonstrate that
a high expression level of miR-221 is associated with
the short overall survival time for NSCLC patients.
Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) play a vital role
in promoting tumor progression. Hepatocyte growth
factor (HGF) is a protein produced by CAFs that pro-
motes tumor growth, motility, and morphogenesis [51]
.
The expression of miR-200 A in matrix fibroblasts is
negatively correlated with HGF expression. High miR-
200a and low HGF expression in stromal fibroblasts
may predict a good prognosis in patients with NSCLC
[52]
. Further, Zhao and his colleagues [53]
. reported that
miRNA single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)
are associated with survival in NSCLC. Their results
confirmed that one SNP, rs2042253 is located in the

Chemotherapy
Taxanes, including paclitaxel and docetaxel, are the
standard treatment for advanced NSCLC. Chen et al.
[62]
reported that decreased miR‑27b expression was
associated with docetaxel resistance of NSCLC, while
up-regulation of miR‑27b could inhibit NSCLC cell vi-
ability and enhance the docetaxel sensitivity of NSCLC
cells through direct inhibition of EGFR expression. Ye
et al. [63]
showed that overexpression of miR-186 sen-
sitized NSCLC cells to paclitaxel, whereas inhibition of
miR-186 conferred resistance in NSCLC cells. In val-
idation, miR-186 was found to be down-regulated in
NSCLC patients who were paclitaxel-resistant, and this
decrease was associated with poor survival. Xu et al. [64]
revealed a differential expression of miR-30a-5p in two
NSCLC cells (paclitaxel-resistant vs paclitaxel-sensitive
NSCLC cells). Their results found that up-regulation of
miR-30a-5p sensitized NSCLC cells to paclitaxel both
in vitro and in vivo through reducing BCL-2 expres-
sion, which provided evidence of the potential utility
of miR-30a-5p as a biomarker in predicting paclitaxel
responsiveness in NSCLC. Gan et al. [65]
observed that
overexpression of miR-339-5p enhanced the prolifera-
tion inhibition ability of Taxol in NSCLC cells, and their
in vivo study demonstrated that up-regulation of miR-
339-5p could promote the inhibitory function of Taxol
on NSCLC growth.
Cisplatin (DDP) is another classic chemotherapy agent
used in the treatment of NSCLC. Yuwen et al. [66]
identi-
fied that serum exosomal miR-146a-5p might be a new
biomarker for predicting the efficacy of DDP for NSCLC
patients and real-time monitoring drug resistance. Shi
et al. [67]
also investigated the role of miR-146a in the
development of acquired drug resistance to DDP in NS-
CLC cells, and found that overexpression of miR-146a
significantly increased the sensitivity of NSCLC cells to
DDP via blocking the cell cycle, enhancing cell apop-
tosis, and inhibiting cell viability and motility both in
vitro and in vivo. Ma et al. [68]
reported that DLK1 was
a potential target for miR-129-5p, and overexpression
of miR-129-5p could inhibit NSCLC chemo-resistance
to DDP through regulating DLK1. Li et al. [69]
found that
miR-196a was associated with the development of NS-
CLC. Down-regulation of miR-196a may increase the
sensitivity of NSCLC cells to DDP by inducing apoptosis
in vitro and in vivo. Another study [70]
indicated that
miR-181c conferred resistance to DDP in NSCLC cells
by activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway through in-
hibiting WIF1, providing a potential therapeutic target
for NSCLC patients with DDP resistance.
In summary, these studies suggest that miRNAs are
closely related to the resistance of NSCLC to radio-
therapy and chemotherapy, but research into the rela-
tionship between miRNAs and therapeutic resistance
is still in its infancy. Before applying this theory in
clinical practice, studies with larger sample sizes and
methods validation procedures will be indispensable.
CONCLUSION
The abnormal expression of miRNAs is closely related
to the occurrence and development of NSCLC and reg-
ulates the differentiation, proliferation and apoptosis
of NSCLC cells, participates in the invasion and metas-
tasis of NSCLC cells, and affects resistance to anti-can-
cer drugs. Additionally, miRNAs have potential value
in the diagnosis, treatment, prognosis and risk strati-
fication of NSCLC. However, the application of miRNAs
is mainly based on laboratory research, which lacks
large-scale clinical transformation research. Therefore,
a more in-depth study of miRNAs may lead to a new
method for the diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer.
