Front Mol Biosci 2023; 10:1162259. [PMID: 37187897 PMCID: PMC10175596 DOI: 10.3389/fmolb.2023.1162259] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2023] [Accepted: 04/17/2023] [Indexed: 05/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) regulatory network is important in human cancer. We, therefore, mapped the regulatory networks driven by circRNA in luminal-subtype breast cancer. Methods: Breast cancer-related microarray datasets from GEO database were analyzed for the differentially expressed circRNAs, miRNAs, and mRNAs. The potential downstream RNAs were collected using Circular RNA Interactome or Targetscan database. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) analysis was performed for the filtered genes to identify hub genes. The functions were annotated by the Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis. CircRNA-miRNA-mRNA networks were mapped using Cytoscape software. Hsa_circ_0086735-miR-1296-5p-STAT1 axis was used for verification. The expression levels of hsa_circ_0086735, miR-1296-5p, and STAT1 mRNA were confirmed by qRT-PCR in luminal-subtype tissues and cell lines. The interactions among them were verified by Luciferase reporter assay and RNA pull-down assay. Cell proliferation and apoptosis were assayed. Overall and distant metastasis-free survival was analyzed. Results: A total of 70 genes were finally targeted and enriched in multi-process and multi-pathway. Networks containing 96 circRNA-miRNA-mRNA axes were constructed. Hsa_circ_0086735 and STAT1 mRNA was upregulated in luminal breast cancer, while miR-1296-5p was downregulated. Hsa_circ_0086735-miR-1296-5p-STAT1 axis promotes breast cancer progression and contributes to tamoxifen resistance. High hsa_circ_0086735 was associated with poor overall and distant metastasis-free survival. Discussion: This study identified the hsa_circ_0086735-miR-1296-5p-STAT1 as an important regulatory axis in luminal-subtype breast cancer, aiding to determine potential therapeutic targets.

Building a precision medicine infrastructure at a national level: The Swedish experience. CAMBRIDGE PRISMS. PRECISION MEDICINE 2023; 1:e15. [PMID: 38550923 PMCID: PMC10953755 DOI: 10.1017/pcm.2023.3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2022] [Accepted: 01/25/2023] [Indexed: 06/28/2024]
Abstract
Precision medicine has the potential to transform healthcare by moving from one-size-fits-all to personalised treatment and care. This transition has been greatly facilitated through new high-throughput sequencing technologies that can provide the unique molecular profile of each individual patient, along with the rapid development of targeted therapies directed to the Achilles heels of each disease. To implement precision medicine approaches in healthcare, many countries have adopted national strategies and initiated genomic/precision medicine initiatives to provide equal access to all citizens. In other countries, such as Sweden, this has proven more difficult due to regionally organised healthcare. Using a bottom-up approach, key stakeholders from academia, healthcare, industry and patient organisations joined forces and formed Genomic Medicine Sweden (GMS), a national infrastructure for the implementation of precision medicine across the country. To achieve this, Genomic Medicine Centres have been established to provide regionally distributed genomic services, and a national informatics infrastructure has been built to allow secure data handling and sharing. GMS has a broad scope focusing on rare diseases, cancer, pharmacogenomics, infectious diseases and complex diseases, while also providing expertise in informatics, ethical and legal issues, health economy, industry collaboration and education. In this review, we summarise our experience in building a national infrastructure for precision medicine. We also provide key examples how precision medicine already has been successfully implemented within our focus areas. Finally, we bring up challenges and opportunities associated with precision medicine implementation, the importance of international collaboration, as well as the future perspective in the field of precision medicine.
