Abstract
PURPOSE Previous studies have shown that microRNA is involved in regulating a variety of human inflammatory diseases. The purpose of this study was to investigate the expression of miR-10a-3p in the blood of patients with severe pneumonia and evaluate its value in the diagnosis and prognosis of severe pneumonia. PATIENTS AND METHODS Seventy patients with severe pneumonia and 75 healthy individuals were included in this study. Venous blood of all subjects was obtained for RT-qPCR analysis to obtain the relative expression level of miR-10a-5p. The diagnostic accuracy of miR-10a-5p for severe pneumonia was assessed by ROC curve. After standardized treatment, the prognosis of patients with severe pneumonia was analyzed by a 28-day follow-up method. Kaplan-Meier curve and multivariate Cox regression analysis were used to determine the basic factors influencing the prognosis of patients. RESULTS Compared with healthy control, serum miR-10a-3p expression in patients with severe pneumonia was distinctly upregulated (P < 0.001). Besides, ROC analysis showed that miR-10a-3p had high diagnostic accuracy for severe pneumonia, with an AUC of 0.881, sensitivity and specificity of 75.7% and 84.0%, respectively. Kaplan-Meier curve exhibited that high miR-10a-3p expression group had a higher probability of death than those with low miR-10a-3p expression. Multivariate Cox regression analysis demonstrated that miR-10a-3p and CRP were independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients. CONCLUSION The expression of miR-10a-3p was increased in patients with severe pneumonia, and abnormally expressed miR-10a-3p has the potential to be used as a diagnostic and prognostic marker for severe pneumonia, which provides a new biological direction for the early detection and risk assessment of severe pneumonia.

Abstract
It is well known that lung cancer relies on a number of genes aberrantly expressed because of somatic lesions. Indeed, the lungs, based on their anatomical features, are organs at a high risk of development of extremely heterogeneous tumors due to the exposure to several environmental toxic agents. In this context, the microbiome identifies the whole assemblage of microorganisms present in the lungs, as well as in distant organs, together with their structural elements and metabolites, which actively interact with normal and transformed cells. A relevant amount of data suggest that the microbiota plays a role not only in cancer disease predisposition and risk but also in its initiation and progression, with an impact on patients’ prognosis. Here, we discuss the mechanistic insights of the complex interaction between lung cancer and microbiota as a relevant component of the microenvironment, mainly focusing on novel diagnostic and therapeutic objectives.
