Unlike miR-615-3p, the urinary- exosomal miR-2909 recruitment was not only observed conspicuously in subjects having prostate cancer in comparison to bladder cancer but also the extent of urinary exosomal miR-2909 recruitment showed characteristic variation as a function of prostate cancer aggressiveness as compared to that of either urinary- exosomal miR-615-3p level or existing widely recognised serum prostate specifics antigen (PSA) biomarker of this cancer.
In conclusion, miR‑615‑5p downregulation may be an underlying molecular mechanism of development and progression of ESCC, and may function as a potential therapeutic target of this malignancy.
