Summary: A three-miRNA panel (miR-146a-5p, miR-24-3p, and miR-93-5p) was successfully established in peripheral serum as a non-invasive biomarker for diagnosing prostate cancer. This panel showed stable diagnostic performance in large cohorts and outperformed other miRNA biomarkers in diagnosing PC.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic and diagnostic potential of microRNA (miRNA) in the management of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Expression analysis and functional enrichment revealed the association of miRNA with the disease and involvement of target genes in cancer progression pathways. miRNA-205 and miRNA-34a were found to be significantly downregulated and upregulated, respectively, in EOC, and showed significant negative correlation with their target genes. The combined miRNA-target gene panel exhibited higher diagnostic value in predicting the risk of EOC.

Summary: Novel or OS-specific biomarkers from GEO database show promise for developing diagnostic and tumor progression strategies. Three candidate genes, including COL5A2, ezrin, and vimentin, were identified as potential tools for OS detection and disease progression prediction. Liquid biopsy is an interesting non-invasive tool for measuring tumor material, with VIM and ezrin genes associated with EMT and metastasis in OS.

Summary: The study identified miR-142-3p, miR-146a-5p, and miR-151a-5p as potential biomarkers for endometrial cancer in plasma, showing diagnostic value. These miRNAs were significantly overexpressed in EC patients and the 3-miRNA signature had stable diagnostic performance superior to other biomarkers in EC diagnosis. Moreover, miR-151a-5p was found to be elevated in EC plasma exosomes.

Summary: The study revealed that USP43 is highly expressed in colorectal cancer and can promote the development of colorectal cancer by affecting cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and the expression of EMT biomarkers. Furthermore, USP43 can regulate ZEB1 degradation through the ubiquitination pathway, and stabilize the ZEB1 protein, which plays a crucial role in the function of colorectal cancer.

Summary: Elevated miR-425 and miR-576 promote colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLM) by inhibiting PTEN-mediated cellular immune function. They were found to be closely associated with tumor deterioration, especially liver metastases, and may serve as novel biomarkers for CRLM prevention and immunotherapy, as well as upstream inhibitors of the PTEN-P53/TGF-beta function axis.

Summary: miR-485-3p and miR-4728-5p expression levels were significantly downregulated in CRC tissues, with lower expression of miR-485-3p in both rectum and colon and decreased miR-4728-5p expression associated with age. Bioinformatics analysis identified TFs associated with these miRNAs, suggesting a potential role in early diagnosis and treatment of CRC. Pathway enrichment analysis highlighted the involvement of Hippo signaling pathway in the regulation of miR-485-3p.

Summary: The study compared the use of exosomal and free circulating microRNAs in colorectal adenocarcinoma, showing higher levels of microRNAs in the exosomal compartment with significant differences from the healthy control group. Combining multiple exosomal miRNAs can further enhance diagnostic sensitivity and specificity.

Summary: MicroRNAs are small non-coding RNAs that interact with their target mRNAs to degrade them or inhibit translation. Dysregulation of miRNAs is associated with various human cancers and plays a role in the development of cancer pathology. MiR-328 has been implicated in multiple human cancers and considered a key regulator. It is involved in biological processes such as cell proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, migration, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition. This review combines basic and clinical studies to demonstrate that miR-328 promotes tumorigenesis and metastasis in human cancer and discusses its diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic value.

Summary: An accurate and specific signature based on immune-related genes has been developed to predict the recurrence of CRC, with the ability to predict prognosis in different patient subgroups and mutation states. High-risk patients show poorer response to chemotherapy and immunotherapy, as well as lower immune scores, and the signature serves as an independent prognostic factor in predicting the overall survival of CRC patients.
