Abstract
Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths among women. Multiple microRNAs (miRNAs) have been reported to be associated with breast cancer progression or metastasis. The purpose of the current study was to identify plasma extracellular miRNAs associated with incident breast cancer. Levels of 166 plasma miRNA were measured using qRT-PCR in 2140 Framingham Heart Study female participants with a median follow up of 15.7 years. Prospective analyses of the associations of miRNAs with the occurrence of 56 new-onset breast cancer events were conducted using proportional hazards regression. The expression levels miR-134-5p (P=0.002) and miR-505-3p (P=0.005) were found to be positively associated with incident breast cancer after adjusting for age, body mass index, and cigarette smoking. These results highlight plasma miRNAs as potential biomarkers of breast cancer risk. Validation of these findings in larger and more diverse cohorts is warranted.
期刊介绍:
The American Journal of Cancer Research (AJCR) (ISSN 2156-6976), is an independent open access, online only journal to facilitate rapid dissemination of novel discoveries in basic science and treatment of cancer. It was founded by a group of scientists for cancer research and clinical academic oncologists from around the world, who are devoted to the promotion and advancement of our understanding of the cancer and its treatment. The scope of AJCR is intended to encompass that of multi-disciplinary researchers from any scientific discipline where the primary focus of the research is to increase and integrate knowledge about etiology and molecular mechanisms of carcinogenesis with the ultimate aim of advancing the cure and prevention of this increasingly devastating disease. To achieve these aims AJCR will publish review articles, original articles and new techniques in cancer research and therapy. It will also publish hypothesis, case reports and letter to the editor. Unlike most other open access online journals, AJCR will keep most of the traditional features of paper print that we are all familiar with, such as continuous volume, issue numbers, as well as continuous page numbers to retain our comfortable familiarity towards an academic journal.
