Abstract

MicroRNA (miRNA) expression profiles for lung cancers were examined to investigate miRNA's involvement in lung carcinogenesis. miRNA microarray analysis identified statistical unique profiles, which could discriminate lung cancers from noncancerous lung tissues as well as molecular signatures that differ in tumor histology. miRNA expression profiles correlated with survival of lung adenocarcinomas, including those classified as disease stage I. High hsa-mir-155 and low hsa-let-7a-2 expression correlated with poor survival by univariate analysis as well as multivariate analysis for hsa-mir-155. The miRNA expression signature on outcome was confirmed by real-time RT-PCR analysis of precursor miRNAs and cross-validated with an independent set of adenocarcinomas. These results indicate that miRNA expression profiles are diagnostic and prognostic markers of lung cancer.

  • miR-21 expression levels are useful prognostic markers in non-small cell lung cancer.

    “Recently, miR-21 expression levels have proven useful prognostic markers in non-small cell lung cancer (Markou et al., 2008; Yanaihara et al., 2006).”

    From Modulation of K-Ras-Dependent Lung Tumorigenesis by MicroRNA-21 (2010) · cites this paper as Yanaihara et al., 2006

    The Results report that high hsa-mir-21 expression was associated with significantly worse survival in lung adenocarcinoma patients. They do not establish miR-21 as a validated prognostic marker across non-small cell lung cancer: the reported prognostic validation focused on other miRNAs. (LLM, conf=0.88)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
