Abstract
Background: Uveal melanoma (UM) is a common intraocular malignancy in adults frequently with metastasis and poor survival.
Objective: This study aimed to identify genes, pathways and the ceRNA axes related to the metastasis of UM.
Methods: The GSE73652 dataset was downloaded and 1719 differentially expressed RNAs (DE-RNAs), including 13 lncRNAs, 5 miRNAs, and 1701 genes, were identified in metastatic UM samples compared with non-metastatic ones.
Results: A total of 11 lncRNA-miRNA pairs were identified by interviewing the DIANA-LncBase database. In addition, 49 UM-related KEGG pathways were filtered in CTD with the search term "uveal melanoma". KEGG pathways involving the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) among the miRNA targets were found and overlapped with UM-related pathways. Accordingly, two crucial overlapped pathways (Wnt and Chemokine signaling pathway) in UM metastasis were mediated by axes consisting of 6 lncRNAs (such as H19, PVT1 and SNGHG1), 3 miRNAs (including hsa-miR-1228, hsa-miR-106b and hsa-miR-6836) and 12 mRNAs (including CTNNB1, MAP3K7, WNT7B, MAPK10 and PLCB4).
Conclusion: The results showed that the involvement of UM-related Wnt/β-catenin and Chemokine signaling pathways and the ceRNA regulatory axes showed noteworthy interest in UM metastasis.
期刊介绍:
Technology and Health Care is intended to serve as a forum for the presentation of original articles and technical notes, observing rigorous scientific standards. Furthermore, upon invitation, reviews, tutorials, discussion papers and minisymposia are featured. The main focus of THC is related to the overlapping areas of engineering and medicine. The following types of contributions are considered:
1.Original articles: New concepts, procedures and devices associated with the use of technology in medical research and clinical practice are presented to a readership with a widespread background in engineering and/or medicine. In particular, the clinical benefit deriving from the application of engineering methods and devices in clinical medicine should be demonstrated. Typically, full length original contributions have a length of 4000 words, thereby taking duly into account figures and tables.
2.Technical Notes and Short Communications: Technical Notes relate to novel technical developments with relevance for clinical medicine. In Short Communications, clinical applications are shortly described. 3.Both Technical Notes and Short Communications typically have a length of 1500 words.
Reviews and Tutorials (upon invitation only): Tutorial and educational articles for persons with a primarily medical background on principles of engineering with particular significance for biomedical applications and vice versa are presented. The Editorial Board is responsible for the selection of topics.
4.Minisymposia (upon invitation only): Under the leadership of a Special Editor, controversial or important issues relating to health care are highlighted and discussed by various authors.
5.Letters to the Editors: Discussions or short statements (not indexed).
