| Abstract | Prognosis of lung cancer still remains grim largely due to recurrence and aggressive metastasis of the disease. In this study, we examined the potential of exosomal miRNAs as biomarkers of recurrent lung cancer. Initially, in vitro miRNA profiles of normal lung (Beas-2b) and lung cancer (H1299) cells and of exosomes isolated from conditioned media were determined. In vivo study involved establishing subcutaneous primary and recurrent lung cancer xenografts in nude mouse model and examining tumor and serum exosomal miRNA alteration in secondary/recurrent lung tumors. A total of 77 miRNAs were observed to be significantly modulated in the H1299 cells (47 miRNA upregulated and 30 downregulated) compared to the Beas-2b cells. The exosomes isolated from conditioned media indicated several miRNAs which were in agreement with cells of origin. A similarity was also observed between miRNAs from serum exosomes and tumors, indicating their origin from the lung tumors. Two miRNAs, miR-21 and miR-155, were found to be significantly upregulated in recurrent tumors compared to primary tumors. These miRNAs were also upregulated in serum exosomes of recurrent tumor-bearing animals versus non-tumor- or primary tumor-bearing animals. Increased expression of the recurrent disease markers were also observed in recurrent tumors compared with primary tumors. Serum exosomes from recurrent tumor mice mirrored its tumor profile in expressing higher levels of these proteins compared with exosomes from primary tumor mice. Our data suggest that exosomal miRNA signatures may be a true representation of a pathological profile of lung cancer; thus, miRNAs could serve as promising biomarkers for non-invasive diagnosis of the disease. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
