RESUMEN

Objective@#To correlate the genome-wide methylation signature of microRNA genes with dysregulated expression of selected candidate microRNA in tissue and serum samples of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) and control using quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), and evaluation of EOC predictive value of candidate microRNA at an early stage. @*Methods@#We performed Methylated DNA Immunoprecipitation coupled with NGS (MeDIP-NGS) sequencing of 6 EOC and 2 normal tissue samples of the ovary. Expression of selected microRNA from tissue (EOC=85, normal=30) and serum (EOC=50, normal=15) samples was evaluated using qRT-PCR. We conducted bioinformatics analysis to identify the candidate miRNA’s potential target and functional role. @*Results@#MeDIP-NGS sequencing revealed hypermethylation of several microRNAs gene promoters. Three candidate microRNAs were selected (microRNA-34a, let-7f, and microRNA-31) from MeDIP-NGS data analysis based on log2FC and P-value. The relative expression level of microRNA-34a, let-7f, and microRNA-31 was found to be significantly reduced in early-stage EOC tissues and serum samples (p<0.0001). The receiver operating characteristic analysis of microRNA-34a, let-7f and miR-31 showed improved diagnostic value with area under curve(AUC) of 92.0 (p<0.0001), 87.9 (p<0.0001), and 85.6 (p<0.0001) and AUC of 82.7 (p<0.0001), 82.0 (p<0.0001), and 81.0 (p<0.0001) in stage III-IV and stage I-II EOC serum samples respectively. The integrated diagnostic performance of microRNA panel (microRNA-34a+let-7f+microRNA-31) in late-stage and early-stage serum samples was 95.5 and 96.9 respectively. @*Conclusion@#Our data correlated hypermethylation-associated downregulation of microRNA in EOC. In addition, a combined microRNA panel from serum could predict the risk of EOC with greater AUC, sensitivity, and specificity.

RESUMEN

To study associations of dermatoglyphic features with malocclusion in Indian children. A total of 237 children aged 12-16 years, who attended our outpatient clinic in a government medical college, were selected. Finger and palm prints were collected, and fingertip pattern frequencies, total ridge counts [TRCs], and atd angles [formed by the triradii below the first and last digits and that in the hypothenar region of the palm] were calculated. These parameters were analyzed with their Angle's class of malocclusion using appropriate statistical tests. Dermatoglyphic parameters were examined and asymmetry analysis was conducted in subjects with different occlusion patterns. Although no fingerprint pattern was found to be specific for a particular class of occlusion, increased tendencies toward high frequencies of whorls in subjects with class II malocclusion and plain arches in those with class III malocclusion were observed. Significant differences in atd angle and TRC were observed among malocclusion types [p = 0.0001]. Asymmetry scores did not differ significantly. Dermatoglyphic analysis can be used as an indicator of malocclusion at an early age, thereby aiding the development of treatments aiming to establish favorable occlusion. Inheritance and twin studies, as well as those conducted in different ethnic groups, are required to examine these relationships further
