Abstract

BACKGROUND: A role of microRNAs in cancer has recently been recognized. However, little is known about the role of microRNAs in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). METHODS: Using microRNA expression profiling, we studied samples of leukemia cells from adults under the age of 60 years who had cytogenetically normal AML and high-risk molecular features--that is, an internal tandem duplication in the fms-related tyrosine kinase 3 gene (FLT3-ITD), a wild-type nucleophosmin (NPM1), or both. A microRNA signature that was associated with event-free survival was derived from a training group of 64 patients and tested in a validation group of 55 patients. For the latter, a microRNA compound covariate predictor (called a microRNA summary value) was computed on the basis of weighted levels of the microRNAs forming the outcome signature. RESULTS: Of 305 microRNA probes, 12 (including 5 representing microRNA-181 family members) were associated with event-free survival in the training group (P<0.005). In the validation group, the microRNA summary value was inversely associated with event-free survival (P=0.03). In multivariable analysis, the microRNA summary value remained associated with event-free survival (P=0.04) after adjustment for the allelic ratio of FLT3-ITD to wild-type FLT3 and for the white-cell count. Using results of gene-expression microarray analysis, we found that expression levels of the microRNA-181 family were inversely correlated with expression levels of predicted target genes encoding proteins involved in pathways of innate immunity mediated by toll-like receptors and interleukin-1beta. CONCLUSIONS: A microRNA signature in molecularly defined, high-risk, cytogenetically normal AML is associated with the clinical outcome and with target genes encoding proteins involved in specific innate-immunity pathways.

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.
