ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the value of detecting plasma microRNA‐125a‐3p(miRNA‐125a‐3p) ,IGF‐2 on monitoring invasion and metastasis in NSCLC ,and to study the correlation between miR‐125a‐3p and IGF‐2 .Methods miR‐125a‐3p transcripts of 20 controls ,73 NSCLC were performed in plasma by quantitative reverse transcription‐polymerase chain reaction(qRT‐PCR) and PCR data was analyzed by the 2‐ΔΔCT method .The expression of IGF‐2 in plasma was detected by ELISA .Results The expression of miR‐125a‐3p in stage Ⅲ /Ⅳ was lower than stage Ⅰ/Ⅱ and the controls(P=0 .001 ,P=0 .005) .There was no statistical differ‐ence between the stage Ⅰ /Ⅱ patients and the controls(P=0 .776) .The expression of miR‐125a‐3p was related with lymph node metastas ,lower expression in positive lymph node metastasis (P=0 .003) .The expression of IGF‐2 in stage Ⅰ /Ⅱ 、stage Ⅲ /Ⅳ was higher than the controls(P=0 .036 ,P=0 .011) .There was no statistical difference between the stageⅠ/Ⅱ and stage Ⅲ/Ⅳ (P=0 .451) . The expression of IGF‐2 was related with lymph node metastas ,higher expression in positive lymph node metastasis (P=0 .037) .The re‐sults showed a negative correlation between miR‐125a‐3p expression and IGF‐2 in plasma(r= -0 .280 ,P=0 .007) .Conclusion Low ex‐pression of miR‐125a‐3p and high expression of IGF‐2 in plasma may play a role in invasion and metastasis of NSCLC .miR‐125a‐3p may play a negative regulatory role on IGF‐2 .
