Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) presents as a worldwide challenge, known as the most frequently diagnosed cancer in women. In 2022, BC was diagnosed in 2.3 million women with 670,000 deaths globally. In this research, our objective was to examine the CST7 and has-miR-4793-5p gene expression in BC tumor tissues and adjacent normal tissues.
Using GSE57897 gene expression data from 422 BC samples and 31 breast samples from healthy controls which was based on the Platform GPL18722 (spotted oligonucleotide Homo sapiens microRNA (miRNA) array) in the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and compare with miRNAs with a conserved target location on CST7 mRNA were found using databases. The study population included 60 fresh BC tissue samples and adjacent normal tissues as control. The Quantitative Real-Time PCR was used to evaluate the expression levels of CST7 and has-miR-4793-5p in the breast tissues.
The present study, found that CST7 and hsa-miR-4793-5p were significantly increased in tumoral tissues in compare to normal tissues. Further analysis revealed a remarkable association between CST7 and hsa-miR-4793-5p gene expression alteration. ROC curve analysis demonstrated high accuracy for CST7 expression in BC tumors. Comparison of gene expression between different stages and patient family history showed significant findings. Due to the high sensitivity and specificity of the expression changes of these two genes, they are suitable candidates for further investigations to be considered as part of a diagnosis and prognosis panel.
期刊介绍:
Open access, online only, peer-reviewed international journal in the Life Sciences, established in 2014 Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports (BB Reports) publishes original research in all aspects of Biochemistry, Biophysics and related areas like Molecular and Cell Biology. BB Reports welcomes solid though more preliminary, descriptive and small scale results if they have the potential to stimulate and/or contribute to future research, leading to new insights or hypothesis. Primary criteria for acceptance is that the work is original, scientifically and technically sound and provides valuable knowledge to life sciences research. We strongly believe all results deserve to be published and documented for the advancement of science. BB Reports specifically appreciates receiving reports on: Negative results, Replication studies, Reanalysis of previous datasets.
