MicroRNA signatures in tissues and plasma predict development and prognosis of computed tomography detected lung cancer

TL;DR: A role for miRNAs in lung tissues and plasma as molecular predictors of lung cancer development and aggressiveness is indicated and has theoretical and clinical implication for lung cancer management.
Journal ArticleDOI

Progress and prospects of early detection in lung cancer

TL;DR: Despite significant developments in the oncological management of late stage lung cancer over recent years, survival remains poor and the UK Office for National Statistics reported that patients diagnosed with distant metastatic disease had a 1-year survival rate of just 15–19% compared with 81–85% for stage I.

microRNAs derived from circulating exosomes as noninvasive biomarkers for screening and diagnosing lung cancer

TL;DR: Four microRNAs were selected to perform a screening test to discriminate between lung adenocarcinoma and granuloma, and the screening test showed 97.5% sensitivity, 72.0% specificity, and area under the curve receiver operating characteristic of 90.8%.

Methodological challenges in utilizing miRNAs as circulating biomarkers.

TL;DR: Several key procedural aspects of miRNA isolation from plasma and serum are reported, as exemplified by research in cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases.

Evaluation of Tumor-Derived Exosomal miRNA as Potential Diagnostic Biomarkers for Early-Stage Non–Small Cell Lung Cancer Using Next-Generation Sequencing

TL;DR: Tumor-derived exosomal miRNAs, adenocarcinoma-specific miR-181-5p, mi-30a-3p,miR-30e- 3p and mi-361- 5p are identified and may be promising and effective candidates in the development of highly sensitive, noninvasive biomarkers for early NSCLC diagnosis.

MicroRNA expression profiles classify human cancers

TL;DR: A new, bead-based flow cytometric miRNA expression profiling method is used to present a systematic expression analysis of 217 mammalian miRNAs from 334 samples, including multiple human cancers, and finds the miRNA profiles are surprisingly informative, reflecting the developmental lineage and differentiation state of the tumours.
