microRNA for Clinical Research and Tumor AnalysisBioGenex
The discovery of microRNAs [miRNAs] has been one of the defining developments in cancer biology over the past decade. miRNAs are short, single stranded 20-22 nucleotide long, non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression and have fundamental roles in Cancer growth and metastasis. miRNAs exert their function via base pairing with complementary mRNA molecules, resulting in gene silencing via transcriptional repression or target degradation. BioGenex solved the inherent difficulties in visualizing miRNAs in spatial context by using a propriety technology to synthesize modified, high-affinity oligonucleotides, labelling miRNA probes with multiple reporter molecules and developing a fully-integrated miRNA-ISH workflow solution allowing high throughput analysis of miRNA in the spatial context.
The epigenetic regulation of DNA-templated processes has been intensely studied over the last 15
years. DNA methylation, histone modification, nucleosome remodeling, and RNA-mediated targeting regulate many biological processes that are fundamental to the genesis of cancer. Here, we
present the basic principles behind these epigenetic pathways and highlight the evidence suggesting that their misregulation can culminate in cancer. This information, along with the promising clinical and preclinical results seen with epigenetic drugs against chromatin regulators, signifies that it
is time to embrace the central role of epigenetics in cancer.
Scientists have recently explored the amazing discovery that many cells produce thousands of much smaller RNA molecules, micro RNAs. Instance, more than 500 different micro RNAs have been found in human cells alone.
Micro RNA plays an important role in post-transcriptional gene regulation, such as RISC, and can cause interference and shut down gene activity.
Micro RNA is a form of ribonucleic acid and does not contain genetic information.

The KRAS-variant may be a genetic marker of risk for type 2 endometrial cancers. In addition, tumor miRNA expression appears to be associated with patient age, lymphovascular invasion and the KRAS-variant, supporting the hypothesis that altered tumor biology can be measured by miRNA expression, and that the KRAS-variant likely impacts endometrial tumor biology.

A KRAS-variant is a Biomarker of Poor Outcome, Platinum Chemotherapy Resistan...UCLA
Germ-line variants in the 3′ untranslated region (3′UTR) of cancer genes disrupting microRNA (miRNA) regulation have recently been associated with cancer risk. A variant in the 3′UTR of the KRAS oncogene, referred to as the KRAS-variant, is associated with both cancer risk and altered tumor biology. Here we test the hypothesis that the KRAS-variant can act as a biomarker of outcome in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), and investigate the cause of altered outcome in KRAS-variant positive EOC patients. As this variant appears to be associated with tumor biology, we additionally test the hypothesis that this variant can be directly targeted to impact cell survival.
EOC patients with complete clinical data were genotyped for the KRAS-variant and analyzed for outcome (n=536), response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (n=125), and platinum resistance (n=306). Outcome was separately analyzed for women with known BRCA mutations (n=79). Gene expression was analyzed on a subset of tumors with available tissue. Cell lines were employed to confirm altered sensitivity to chemotherapy with the KRAS-variant. The KRAS- variant was directly targeted through siRNA/miRNA oligonucleotides in cell lines and survival was measured.
Post-menopausal EOC patients with the KRAS-variant were significantly more likely to die of ovarian cancer by multivariate analysis (HR=1.67, 95% CI=1.09–2.57, p=0.019, n=279). Possibly explaining this finding, EOC patients with the KRAS-variant were significantly more likely to be platinum resistant (OR=3.18, CI=1.31–7.72, p=0.0106, n=291). Additionally, direct targeting of the KRAS-variant led to a significant reduction in EOC cell growth and survival in vitro.
These findings confirm the importance of the KRAS-variant in EOC, and indicate that the KRAS- variant is a biomarker of poor outcome in EOC likely due to platinum resistance. In addition, this work supports the hypothesis that these tumors have continued dependence on such 3′UTR lesions, and that direct targeting may be a viable future treatment approach.

BRCA1 Promoter Methylation and Clinicopathological Characteristics in Sporadi...UniversitasGadjahMada
The aim of this study was to investigate the BRCA1 promoter methylation and clinicopathological characteristics in sporadic breast cancer patients in Indonesia. In this cohort study, we selected 90 patients with stage I-III who had definitive surgery at our institution in 2011-2014. Demographic and clinical data regarding pathological stage, breast cancer treatment, outcome etc. were collected from the medical records. Twelve patients had incomplete information on follow up and 18 samples had insufficient tissues for the experiment. Sixty patients with adequate cancer tissues and complete follow up record were analyzed, only 56 patients were analyzed because 4 samples mRNA expression could not be detected. The Mann–Whitney U tests for non-normally distributed groups were used to compare the levels expression of BRCA1 mRNA between methylated and non-methylated samples. Chi-square tests were used to compare methylation status, BRCA1 mRNA expression and clinicopathological characteristics. P value < 0.05 was considered as statistically significant correlation. Data analysis was held by using the GraphPad PRISM 7 (GraphPad Software Inc., USA). DNA and RNA were isolated from primary tumor tissues of 56 breast cancer patients. BRCA1 promoter methylation was detected in 48 of 56 patients (85%). Level of BRCA1 mRNA expression was associated with decreased methylation level in the BRCA1 promoter regions suggesting the role of epigenetic silencing.
However, there was no statistically significant association among methylation levels, BRCA1 mRNA transcript level with clinicopathological factors. in conclusion, it was found that the prevalence of BRCA1 promoter methylation is higher than other studies from different populations. However, further investigation involving larger number of patients is required.

The Role of MicroRNAs in the Progression, Prognostication, and Treatment of B...CrimsonpublishersCancer
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are conserved, small, non-coding RNA molecules, which recently have attracted enormous attention in numerous physiological and pathological conditions. Several studies have shed light on their biogenesis, regulatory mechanisms, and role as effective therapies in diseased conditions. Of interest, miRNA deregulation in numerous cancer types has been researched as potential diagnostic and prognostic tool. Breast cancer (BCa) is the most predominant tumor in women and the main cause of death. Despite advances in diagnosis and new treatments, the death toll from this disease is still higher than many other types of cancer in men and women. A major global health issue plaguing the health and clinical research industry is resistance to BCa treatments. A lot of attention is increasingly directed towards miRNAs as a potential predictor’s response to treatments and as an alternative therapy to BCa treatment. Increasing evidence reveals a fundamental role miRNA plays in cancer development, progression, and treatment. Repeated findings have reinforced evidence of miRNA modulations in breast cancer cells by their effects in cell migration and invasion. Recently, miRNAs have been described as a diagnostic and prognostic tool, which offers promises as biomarkers for advancement of non-invasive and precise methods for screening tumor growth and progression. This review summarizes an overview of miRNA in breast cancer growth and progression, recent applications as biomarkers in a clinical setting in this type of cancers.
Proteogenomic analysis of human colon cancer reveals new therapeutic opportun...Gul Muneer
We performed the first proteogenomic study on a prospectively collected colon cancer cohort. Comparative proteomic and phosphoproteomic analysis of paired tumor and normal adjacent tissues produced a catalog of colon cancer-associated proteins and phosphosites, including known and putative new biomarkers, drug targets, and cancer/testis antigens. Proteogenomic integration not only prioritized genomically inferred targets, such as copy-number drivers and mutation-derived neoantigens, but also yielded novel findings. Phosphoproteomics data associated Rb phosphorylation with increased proliferation and decreased apoptosis in colon cancer, which explains why this classical tumor suppressor is amplified in colon tumors and suggests a rationale for targeting Rb phosphorylation in colon cancer. Proteomics identified an association between decreased CD8 T cell infiltration and increased glycolysis in microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) tumors, suggesting glycolysis as a potential target to overcome the resistance of MSI-H tumors to immune checkpoint blockade. Proteogenomics presents new avenues for biological discoveries and therapeutic development.

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

Introduction of miRNA
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous small noncoding RNAs (20 – 23
nucleotides) that negatively regulate the gene expressions at the
posttranscriptional level by base pairing to the 3' untranslated region of target
messenger RNAs.
Hundreds of miRNAs have been identified in humans and evolutionarily
conserved from plants to animals.
It is revealed that miRNAs regulate various physiological and pathological
pathways such as cell differentiation, cell proliferation, and tumoriogenesis.
16. M.Koolivand MSc 16
Apoptosis
Apoptosis describes the orchestrated collapse of a cell characterised
by membrane blebbing, cell shrinkage, condensation of chromatin,
and fragmentation of DNA followed by rapid engulfment of the
corpse by neighbouring cells.
It is distinguished from death by necrosis by the absence of an
associated inflammatory response.

Conclusion
Progresses on the biology of miRNAs greatly
enhance our understanding of their functions
with respect to basic mechanisms of oncogenesis
and diagnostics and prognostics.
cell-free miRNAs might play an increasing
role as non-invasive tools for the detection
of cancer in early stages and as biomarker
to monitor prognosis and response to
therapy. However, knowledge on the
biological functions of extracellular miRNAs
is in its infancy.

Defects in the miRNA Biogenesis Pathway IN Mechanisms of microRNA deregulation in human cancer
In complex organisms, miRNAs
regulate a wide range of biological processes, including development, differentiation, proliferation, cell metabolism
and apoptosis (programmed cell death).
Dysregulation of individual or subset of miRNAs is linked with the pathogenesis of human diseases, such as cancer,
cardiovascular disorders, viral infections and metabolic diseases. The first insight into their function was a result of
phenotypic studies of mutations that disrupt basic components of the miRNA pathway.
As mentioned before, the primary role of miRNAs is gene regulation; today it is know that they regulate the
expression of more than 10 000 genes in a single cell. Such cellular effects of miRNAs can be seen in a myriad of
different cells – i.e. in cancer cells, cardiovascular cells or skin cells.

Epigenetic control of cellular differentiation
Since each cell, regardless of cell type, possesses the same genome, determination of cell type must occur at
the level of gene expression. While the regulation of gene expression can occur through cisand
transregulatory
elements including a gene’s promoter and enhancers, the problem arises as to how this
expression pattern is maintained over numerous generations of cell division. As it turns out, epigenetic
processes play a crucial role in regulating the decision to adopt a stem, progenitor, or mature cell fate. This
section will focus primarily on mammalian stem cells.
In systems biology and mathematical modeling of gene regulatory networks, cellfate
determination is
predicted to exhibit certain dynamics, such as attractorconvergence
(the attractor can be an equilibrium
point, limit cycle or strange attractor) or oscillatory.[18]
Importance of epigenetic control
The first question that can be asked is the extent and complexity of the role of epigenetic processes in the
determination of cell fate. A clear answer to this question can be seen in the 2011 paper by Lister R, et al.
[19] on aberrant epigenomic programming in human induced pluripotent stem cells. As induced pluripotent
stem cells (iPSCs) are thought to mimic embryonic stem cells in their pluripotent properties, few epigenetic
differences should exist between them. To test this prediction, the authors conducted wholegenome
profiling of DNA methylation patterns in several human embryonic stem cell (ESC), iPSC, and progenitor
cell lines.
Female adipose cells, lung fibroblasts, and foreskin fibroblasts were reprogrammed into induced pluripotent
state with the OCT4, SOX2, KLF4, and MYC genes. Patterns of DNA methylation in ESCs, iPSCs, somatic
cells were compared. Lister R, et al. observed significant resemblance in methylation levels between
embryonic and induced pluripotent cells. Around 80% of CG dinucleotides in ESCs and iPSCs were
methylated, the same was true of only 60% of CG dinucleotides in somatic cells. In addition, somatic cells
possessed minimal levels of cytosine methylation in nonCG
dinucleotides, while induced pluripotent cells
possessed similar levels of methylation as embryonic stem cells, between 0.5 and 1.5%. Thus, consistent
with their respective transcriptional activities,[19] DNA methylation patterns, at least on the genomic level,
are similar between ESCs and iPSCs.
However, upon examining methylation patterns more closely, the authors discovered 1175 regions of
differential CG dinucleotide methylation between at least one ES or iPS cell line. By comparing these
regions of differential methylation with regions of cytosine methylation in the original somatic cells, 4449%
of differentially methylated regions reflected methylation patterns of the respective progenitor somatic
cells, while 5156%
of these regions were dissimilar to both the progenitor and embryonic cell lines. In
vitroinduced
differentiation of iPSC lines saw transmission of 88% and 46% of hyper and hypomethylated
differentially methylated regions, respectively.
Two conclusions are readily apparent from this study. First, epigenetic processes are heavily involved in
cell fate determination, as seen from the similar levels of cytosine methylation between induced pluripotent
and embryonic stem cells, consistent with their respective patterns of transcription. Second, the mechanisms
of dedifferentiation
(and by extension, differentiation) are very complex and cannot be easily duplicated,
as seen by the significant number of differentially methylated regions between ES and iPS cell lines. Now
that these two points have been established, we can examine some of the epigenetic mechanisms that are
thought to regulate cellular differentiation.
Mechanisms of epigenetic regulation
Pioneering factors (Oct4, Sox2, Nanog)
Three transcription factors, OCT4, SOX2, and NANOG – the first two of which are used in iPSC
reprogramming – are highly expressed in undifferentiated embryonic stem cells and are necessary for the
maintenance of their pluripotency.[20] It is thought that they achieve this through alterations in chromatin
structure, such as histone modification and DNA methylation, to restrict or permit the transcription of target
genes.
Polycomb repressive complex (PRC2)
In the realm of gene silencing, Polycomb repressive complex 2, one of two classes of the Polycomb group
(PcG) family of proteins, catalyzes the diand
trimethylation
of histone H3 lysine 27
(H3K27me2/me3).[21][20][22] By binding to the H3K27me2/3tagged
nucleosome, PRC1 (also a complex of
PcG family proteins) catalyzes the monoubiquitinylation
of histone H2A at lysine 119 (H2AK119Ub1),
blocking RNA polymerase II activity and resulting in transcriptional suppression.[20] PcG knockout ES cells
do not differentiate efficiently into the three germ layers, and deletion of the PRC1 and PRC2 genes leads to
increased expression of lineageaffiliated
genes and unscheduled differentiation.[20] Presumably, PcG
complexes are responsible for transcriptionally repressing differentiation and developmentpromoting
genes.

MicroRNA and their involvement in anticancer drug resistance. Drug resistance can occur at many levels, including drug efflux,
alterations in drug target, DNA repair, cell cycle regulation, and evasion of apoptosis. Some selected miRNAs which have been demonstrated

Finally,
although there are large numbers of reports on the
functions of miRNAs in the development of cancer, the
complex gene networks affected by them remains a considerable
problem. The complex relationships between miRNAs
and their functional pathways must be demonstrated.
With the understanding of the origin, stability, their
role in cell-cell communication and advances in methods
to detect circulating miRNAs, we believe that, in the
future, they will become a cancer buster: From detection
to therapy.
