摘要
Abstract
Objective:To investigate the expression level of miRNA-21 in whole saliva from oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) patients and their significance associated to tumor behavior. Methods: Thirty-eight male and twenty-six female OSCC patients aged from 29 to 76 years, were selected from January 2012 to June 2016. All OSCC patients were newly-diagnosed and treatment-free. Twenty-five healthy volunteers matching in sex and age were also enrolled as controls. MiRNA-21 expression in saliva was examined by Real-time PCR. Student t test was used to analyze the difference between OSCC group and control group. Results: The expressions of miRNA-21 in saliva was higher in OSCC patients (2.75 ±0.94) than those in the healthy control individual (0.78±0.45, P<0.01). Up-regulated miRNA-21 expression level was associated with the tumor cell differentiation (P<0.01) and lymph node metastasis (P<0.05). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of miRNA-21 in the saliva about cell differentiation resulted in a diagnostic sensitivity of 89.5% and specificity of 66.7%respectively. Conclusion: The expression level of miRNA-21 in whole saliva may be a valuable adjuvant parameter for predicting the growth and behavior of OSCC.关键词
