ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The prognosis of advanced gastric cancer (GC) invading the gastric serosa remains poor, mainly owing to high incidence of peritoneal recurrence. Patients with peritoneal metastases are often treated with neoadjuvant intraperitoneal and systemic chemotherapies (NIPS). Good responders to NIPS often undergo conversion gastrectomy. This study aims to explore biomarkers predicting the occurrence of peritoneal metastasis (PM) and evaluating the efficacy of NIPS in GC patients.METHODS:
We collected six peritoneal lavage (PL) samples from two patients with PM, two without PM, and two with diminished PM after NIPS via intraperitoneal access ports. We equally isolated microRNAs from exosomes derived from PL samples for deep sequencing. Two microRNAs (hsa-let-7g-3p and hsa-miR-10395-3p) were identified, and their expression levels were examined in PL samples of 99 GC patients using qRT-PCR. Moreover, we performed in vivo and in vitro functional assays to investigate effects of these microRNAs on metastasis and chemoresistance of GC cells.RESULTS:
Exosomal microRNA expression profiling of six PL samples indicated that the microRNA signature in exosomes of PLs from patients with diminished PM was similar to that from patients without PM. Expression levels of hsa-let-7g-3p and hsa-miR-10395-3p were associated with PM. In vivo and in vitro functional assays confirmed that hsa-let-7g-3p and hsa-miR-10395-3p are involved in GC metastasis and chemoresistance.CONCLUSION:
PL-derived exosomes in GC contain large amounts of microRNAs related to PM. Moreover, hsa-let-7g-3p and hsa-miR-10395-3p could be used as biomarkers predicting PM and NIPS efficacy and are involved in GC metastasis and chemoresistance.Palavras-chave
