MicroRNA Differential Expression Analysis for Identification of Diagnostic Biomarkers for Canine Visceral Hemangiosarcoma
Listed in NCBI GEO
Canine visceral hemangiosarcoma (HSA) is a highly aggressive malignancy of endothelial cells with a poor prognosis and limited diagnostic tools.
Description
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs with emerging utility as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers due to their stability and disease-specific expression profiles. This study aimed to identify and validate miRNA biomarkers for canine splenic and cardiac HSA using small RNA sequencing and quantitative PCR.
Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues were analyzed from 24 dogs with histologically confirmed HSA (18 splenic, 6 cardiac) and six non-neoplastic controls (six cardiac and six splenic). A total of 67 and 71 miRNAs were differentially expressed (DE) in splenic and cardiac HSA, respectively, with 18 miRNAs shared between both tumor types. Forty candidate diagnostic miRNAs were selected for validation by RT-qPCR using customized panels.

Thirteen miRNAs were validated as DE in each tissue type, showing strong concordance with sequencing results. Pathway enrichment analysis of validated miRNAs revealed significant involvement in oncogenic signaling pathways, including the PI3K-Akt, MAPK, HIF-1, and Ras pathways. These results highlight miRNA signatures with potential diagnostic relevance in visceral HSA and support their utility as biomarkers in archival tissues, with possible future application to liquid biopsy approaches.
