Exosome-encapsulated microRNA-223-3p as a minimally invasive biomarker for the early detection of invasive breast cancer
Patients diagnosed preoperatively with ductal carcinoma (DCIS) breast cancer have the potential to develop invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC). The present study investigated the usefulness of exosome-encapsulated microRNA-223-3p (miR-223-3p) as a biomarker for detecting IDC in patients initially diagno...

Zusammenfassung: | Patients diagnosed preoperatively with ductal carcinoma
(DCIS) breast cancer have the potential to develop invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC). The present study investigated the usefulness of exosome-encapsulated microRNA-223-3p (miR-223-3p) as a biomarker for detecting IDC in patients initially diagnosed with DCIS by biopsy. The potential association between miR-223-3p and clinicopathological characteristics was examined in patients with breast cancer. Exosomes of 185 patients with breast cancer were separated from plasma by ultracentrifugation. Initially a microRNA (miRNA) microarray was examined to reveal the invasion specific miRNAs using exosomes collected from 6 patients with breast cancer, including 3 DCIS patients, 3 IDC patients and 3 healthy controls. In the miR microarray analysis the miR-223-3p levels of IDC patients demonstrated the highest fold-change compared with those in the DCIS patients and healthy controls. The potential of miR-223-3p for cell proliferation and cell invasion were examined
using MCF7 cells transfected with the miR-223-3p gene. MCF7 cells transfected with the miR-223-3p gene significantly promoted cell proliferation and cell invasive ability (P |
