MIR-379-5p Expression in Endometrial Cancer and Its Correlation with ROR1 Expression

To asses miR-379-5p expression in endometrial cancer (EC) and its correlation with ROR1 expression and to investigate the relation between miR-379-5p and ROR1 expressions and the clinicopathological picture of EC. Fifty female of EC were joined to this study. The gene expression of miR-379-5p (by quantitative real time-PCR) and ROR1 (by quantitative real time-PCR and immunohistochemistry) were studied in EC and normal nearby endometrial tissue. The gene expression of miR-379-5p was significantly downregulated while that of ROR1 was significantly upregulated in EC tissues compared to adjacent normal endometrial tissues. Furthermore, miR-379 and ROR1 expressions significantly associated with tumor stage (P< 0.045), grade (P< 0.001), myometrial invasion (P
