OS and DFS worsened in DM subjects with both HbA1c ≥ 6.5% and DM duration ≥3 years. Thus, DM is associated with two modes of epigenetic change by independent mechanisms and worsens prognosis.
Moreover, in the collected samples, miR-100-5p was lowly expressed in PTC tissues compared with normal tissues, especially in those of advanced stage (Stage III/IV vs Stage I/II), while FZD8 was highly expressed in PTC tissues, which in PTC tissues was inversely correlated to miR-100-5p. Thus, we suggest that overexpression of miR-100-5p inhibits the development of PTC by targeting FZD8.
Together, these findings unveiled that CDC25A may be a key target of miR-100-5p that mediated progression of BC cells. Hence, miR-100-5p overexpression or CDC25A suppression may contribute to BC diagnosis.
