Article Title: miR-125b and miR-100 Are Predictive Biomarkers of Response to Induction Chemotherapy in Osteosarcoma

doi: 10.1155/2016/1390571

Figure Lengend Snippet: Expression of six miRNAs was significantly different between poor and good responders, as measured by microarray analysis of open biopsy samples (a). qRT-PCR (b–g) of these six miRNAs confirmed that miRNA-125b (b) and miR-100 (c) were expressed at significantly higher levels in chemoresistant patients.

Article Snippet: Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded samples were sectioned at 10 μ m, and total RNA was extracted from several of such slices using the miRNeasy FFPE Kit (Qiagen). miRNA expression profiles of frozen samples were obtained by hybridizing total RNA to the Agilent human miRNA Microarray V3 (021827, 8 × 15 K, v12.0, Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA), following the manufacturer's instructions.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Comparison of candidate circRNAs (circRNA_103829, circRNA_10827, circRNA_104816, circRNA_101889, circRNA_103828, circRNA_100833, circRNA_104852, circRNA_103611) expression levels in granulosa cells from additional young (n = 20) and older (n = 20) women by qRT-PCR. YA, women with young age (≤ 30 years); AA, women with advanced age (≥ 38 years). P values were calculated by Mann-Whitney U test. Relative expressions were analyzed by 2 -ΔΔCt method which was normalized to GAPDH. For each box plotting, the central mark represents the median, the edges of the box represent the 25 th and 75 th percentiles, and the whiskers are the most extreme data points not considered outliers.
