Research Abstract |
We investigated expression profiles of microRNA(miRNA) in gastric carcinomas by use of a miRNA microarray platform covering a total of 470 human miRNAs. By comparing miRNA expression profiles between intestinal-type and diffuse-type gastric carcinomas(ANOVA P<0. 05), we could not identify any miRNAs differentially expressed between them, suggesting that, in gastric carcinomas, the miRNA expression profile might not be correlated with histopathologic subtypes. We identified 39 differentially expressed miRNAs in gastric carcinoma, of which 6 were significantly downregulated and the other 33 were upregulated. Among the 6 down-regulated miRNA, we selected 3, miR-375, miR-29c and miR-148a, as gastric cancer-related miRNA.
