Pan-Cancer pattern of lncRNAs, miRNAs and their regulatory networks - (Feb/06/2014 )

Dysregulation of miRNAs and lncRNAs can contribute to tumor formation and progression. Little is known about the expression profiles of lncRNAs and miRNAs across diverse cancer types.

 

Pan-Cancer miRNA and lncRNA resources:

(1) panCancerMine: explore Pan-Cancer lncRNA, miRNA and their regulatory networks (ceRNA, coexpression) by mining expression profiles of miRNAs, lncRNAs and mRNAs across 14 cancer types (>6000 samples) from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) Data Portal and large-scale CLIP-Seq data.

 

(2)cancerMiner: is a comprehensive resource for discovery and prioritization of miRNA-mRNA target interactions and relationships in human cancer using molecular datasets from The Cancer Genome Atlas.

panCancerMine also provided Pan-Cancer Interactions between lncRNAs and RNA-Binding Proteins (RBPs), mRNAs and RBPs.
 
Correlation between RNA-Binding Proteins (RBPs) and targets across 14 cancer types (>6000 tumor and normal samples) using pearson correlation test (p-value<0.05).
 
For example:
(1)RBP-lncRNA:  FMRP:TUG1(lncRNA) interaction with significant correlation across 14 cancer types. 
(2)RBP-mRNA: TDP-43:CDK6 interaction with significant correlation across 9 cancer types.
