ABSTRACT
The molecular bases of miR-182 deregulation in epithelial ovarian cancers (EOCs) remain unknown and its diagnostic or prognostic role in EOCs is still unclear. We performed miR-182 expression analysis using a microarray approach and real-time PCR (qPCR). We also used array comparative genomic hybridization and methylated DNA immunoprecipitation to study copy number changes and methylation aberrations within coding locus/promoter sequences of miR-182 in EOC tissues, respectively. We have found that miR-182 expression is significantly increased in EOC (P < 0.00001) and that higher miR-182 expression in EOC is linked with significantly shorter overall survival (P = 0.026). The methylation of miR-182 promoter was significantly associated with lower miR-182 expression in EOC tissues (P = 0.045). miR-182 over-expression is connected with copy number (CN) gains of this miRNA coding sequences in EOC (P = 0.002), and the number of PRDM5 copies is significantly and inversely correlated with miR-182 expression evaluated by qPCR (R = -0.615, P = 0.009). We conclude that the aberrant miR-182 expression in EOC may be due to CN gains within its coding locus. The miR-182 promoter is rarely methylated in EOC, and its methylation status is associated with lower miR-182 expression. Deletion of the PRDM5 locus may play a supportive role in miR-182 overexpression in EOC. miR-182 is an unfavorable prognostic factor in EOC. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
