Identification of high expression profiles of miR-31-5p and its vital role in lung squamous cell carcinoma: a survey based on qRT-PCR and bioinformatics analysis %K %X Background: The function of miR-31-5p in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) remains unclear, therefore, a systematic study was performed for the clinical significance and molecular mechanism of miR- 31-5p in LUSC. Methods: Quantitative real-time reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) was utilized to test the expression level of miR-31-5p in 88 LUSC tissue samples and their matching normal tissues. Data from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) were also utilized to confirm the expression level and clinical value of miR-31-5p in LUSC. The potential target genes of miR-31-5p were predicted by several online predicted software. Gene ontology (GO), protein-protein interaction (PPI) and pathway analysis were utilized to investigate the underlying molecular mechanism of miR-31-5p in LUSC. Results: The result from qRT-PCR found that there was significant difference of miR-31-5p between LUSC and normal tissues (P Conclusions: According to what has been discussed above, we speculated that miR-31-5p may play a vital role in the occurrence and development of LUSC. %U https://tcr.amegroups.org/article/view/29250 %V 8 %N 3 %P 788-801 %@ 2219-6803
