ABSTRACT
Among patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), several studies have suggested that deregulated microRNA (miRNA) expression may be associated with a more aggressive phenotype. Although tumor molecular signatures may be race- and/or ethnicity-specific, there is limited information on the molecular profiles in women with TNBC of Hispanic and Latin American ancestry. We simultaneously profiled TNBC biopsies for the genome-wide copy number and miRNA global expression from 28 Latina women and identified a panel of 28 miRNAs associated with copy number alterations (CNAs). Four selected miRNAs (miR-141-3p, miR-150-5p, miR-182-5p, and miR-661) were validated in a subset of tumor and adjacent non-tumor tissue samples, with miR-182-5p being the most discriminatory among tissue groups (AUC value > 0.8). MiR-141-3p up-regulation was associated with increased cancer recurrence; miR-661 down-regulation with larger tumor size; and down-regulation of miR-150-5p with larger tumor size, high p53 expression, increased cancer recurrence, presence of distant metastasis, and deceased status. This study reinforces the importance of integration analysis of CNAs and miRNAs in TNBC, allowing for the identification of interactions among molecular mechanisms. Additionally, this study emphasizes the significance of considering the patients ancestral background when examining TNBC, as it can influence the relationship between intrinsic tumor molecular characteristics and clinical manifestations of the disease.
