RESUMO
PURPOSE: This study aims to explore the potential of hsa-mir-106b-5p as a new liquid biomarker for prostate cancer sufferers in Indonesia. METHODS: Analysis of hsa-mir-106b-5p expression of two tissue samples from BPH patients and two PCa patients used NanoString nCounter Expression Assay then validated by qRT-PCR using 10 patient urine samples for prostate cancer and BPH. Furthermore, analysis of the role of hsa-mir-106b-5p in prostate cancer was carried out bioinformatically. RESULTS: The results of this study indicated that the expression of hsa-mir-106b-5p in prostate cancer tissue was 1.23 times higher than that of BPH and urine of Indonesian patients (1.72 times). Moreover, this miRNA was upregulated in prostate cancer cells compared to normal cells 1.37 times. The hsa-mir-106b-5p appeared to be involved in the development of prostate cancer through the binding of genes involved in endoplasmic reticulum stress pathways and tumor suppressor genes. CONCLUSION: hsa-mir-106b-5p could modulate prostate cancer by interfering with the endoplasmic reticulum stress repair pathways and decreasing the expression of tumor suppressor genes involved in many biological processes. These updates our understanding of the role of hsa-mir-106b-5p in cancer and its potential as a candidate of a biomarker for clinical diagnosis of prostate cancer.

OBJECTIVE: Ovarian cancer is a malignant tumor that attacks reproductive organs of women. MicroRNA is known to have an involvement in the prognosis of ovarian cancer. One of them is miR-155-5p which is down regulated and miR-324-5p which is up regulated. Chitosan is used as microRNA delivery system. The aims of this study is to find out the effects of combination microRNA encapsulated chitosan in cell line SKOV3. METHODS: Cell line SKOV3 obtained from Stem Cell and Cancer Institute (Kalbe). Mimic miR-155-5p and Antagonist miR-324-5p formulated with chitosan. Total RNA was extracted from nine samples (three as control and six as treatment), and prepared for cDNA synthesis. Expression of RNA and mRNA target was measured using q-PCR Biorad CFX96 C.100 and Gen Ex 7 software. Statistics analysis was measured using SPSS 16.0. RESULTS: The administration of combination microRNA encapsulated with chitosan affect the expression of miR-155-5p and miR-324-5p endogen (p <0.05). The expression of mRNA target HIF1α and GLI1 was down regulated after treatment. The correlation between expression of microRNA and mRNA target was strongly (p <0.05). CONCLUSION: This study successfully presented effects of combination of mimic miR-155-5p and antagonist miR-324-5p encapsulated chitosan which be considered as a potential therapy targets for ovarium cancer.
