简要总结
Breastcancer (BC) is the most common cancer among women, with approximately 2.3 millionnew cases and over 685,000 deaths worldwide in 2020. India is no exception.Risk factors include age, genetics, and lifestyle choices. Challenges in Indiainclude relatively younger age of onset, late-stage diagnosis, limited accessto quality healthcare in rural areas, and lack of awareness about symptoms andrisk factors. Treatment options include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, andhormonal therapies. Research on early detection and effective targetedtherapies is the need of the hour to improve overall and disease-free survivalrates.
MicroRNA(miR) profiling is a valuable tool in breast cancer research and clinicalpractice to analyse the expression levels of microRNAs (miRNAs) in breastcancer tissue. The role of miR profiling in breast cancer includes thefollowing:
1. Biomarker Discovery: MicroRNAprofiling helps identify specific miRNAs that are either overexpressed orunderexpressed in breast cancer tissue. These miRNAs can serve as potentialbiomarkers for diagnosis, prognosis, and predicting treatment responses.
2. Molecular Subtyping: MicroRNAprofiles can aid in classifying breast cancer into different molecularsubtypes, such as luminal, HER2-enriched, and triple-negative. Thisclassification is crucial for tailoring treatment strategies to the uniquecharacteristics of the tumour.
3. Prognostication: Certain miRNAexpression patterns are associated with different outcomes in breast cancerpatients. High or low expression of specific miRNAs can indicate a better orworse prognosis, assisting healthcare professionals in making informedtreatment decisions.
4. Identification of Therapeutic Targets:MicroRNA profiling can reveal miRNAs that play a significant role in cancerprogression, metastasis, and drug resistance. Targeting these miRNAs withtherapeutic interventions or drugs may offer new avenues for breast cancertreatment.
5. Personalized therapies: Byanalysing a patient’s microRNA profile, personalized treatment strategiestargeting the unique genetic characteristics of a patient’s breast cancer arepossible, potentially leading to improved survival.
