Accumulating studies have linked the disruptions of microRNA-10 (miR-10) to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with NPM1 mutation. However, miR-10 expression and its clinical implication in AML remain poorly defined. Although a recent report showed high serum level of miR-10a was associated with adverse prognosis in AML, herein, we found bone marrow (BM) miR-10 overexpression was not a prognostic biomarker in AML.
BM miR-10 expression was examined by real-time quantitative PCR in BM mononuclear cells in 115 de novo AML patients and 45 controls.
BM miR-10 (miR-10a/b) expression was significantly up-regulated in AML patients, and was positively correlated with each other. Overexpression of miR-10a was associated with lower percentage of BM blasts, whereas miR-10b overexpression tended to correlate with higher percentage of BM blasts. Importantly, miR-10a overexpression was significantly associated with FAB-M3/t(15;17) subtypes and NPM1 mutation, meanwhile, overexpression of miR-10b was correlated with NPM1 and DNMT3A mutations. However, miR-10a/b overexpression was not associated with complete remission rate, and did not have an impact on both leukemia free survival and overall survival time in non-M3 AML patients without NPM1 mutation.
BM miR-10 overexpression is associated with genetic events but not affects clinical outcome in AML.
越来越多的研究表明,miR-10 的失调与 NPM1 突变的急性髓系白血病(AML)有关。然而,miR-10 在 AML 中的表达及其临床意义仍未得到明确界定。尽管最近的一份报告表明,高血清 miR-10a 水平与 AML 的不良预后相关,但在此,我们发现骨髓(BM)miR-10 过表达不是 AML 的预后生物标志物。
通过实时定量 PCR 检测 115 例初诊 AML 患者和 45 例对照者 BM 单个核细胞中的 BM miR-10 表达。
AML 患者的 BM miR-10(miR-10a/b)表达显著上调,且彼此呈正相关。miR-10a 的过表达与 BM 原始细胞比例降低相关,而 miR-10b 的过表达则与 BM 原始细胞比例升高相关。重要的是,miR-10a 的过表达与 FAB-M3/t(15;17)亚型和 NPM1 突变显著相关,而 miR-10b 的过表达与 NPM1 和 DNMT3A 突变相关。然而,miR-10a/b 的过表达与完全缓解率无关,且在无 NPM1 突变的非 M3 AML 患者中,对无白血病生存时间和总生存时间均无影响。
BM miR-10 过表达与遗传事件相关,但不影响 AML 的临床结局。
