Common miRNAs dysregulated in diabetes and LC

miRNA Role in diabetes References Role in LC References
miR-20b-5p Elevated expression of miR-20b-5p in T2DM modulates insulin-stimulated glucose metabolism via AKT signaling. [271] Biomarker for NSCLC, overexpression of miR-20b promote NSCLC cell proliferation and migration [272]
Knock out of miR-20b-5p enhances diabetes associated wound healing and promotes wound angiogenesis [259] [273]
miR-126 Loss of endothelial miR-126 impairs peripheral angiogenic signaling in patients with DM [274] Downregulation of miR-126 in LC. Ectopic expression of miR-126 suppresses EMT and metastasis of LC cells, biomarker for NSCLC [275]
Downregulation of miR-126 regulates angiogenesis and vascular integrity, therapeutic agent for DM [276] [277]
miR-150 Higher expression of miR-150, miR-30a-5p seen in T2DM, predictors of T2DM and prediabetes [278] miR-150 overexpressed in LC. Knockdown of miR-150 inhibit LC cell viability [279]
miR-30a-5p miR-30a-5p downregulated in LC and p53/miR-30a-5p/SOX4 feedback loop mediates cellular proliferation, migration of NSCLC cells [280]
[281]
miR-194 Modulator of glucose metabolism, decreased expression in T2DM [282] Downregulated in HG condition, introduction of miR-194 suppressed the proliferation, migration, and invasion of LC cells induced by HG and suppresses metastasis of LC cells [64]
[283]
miR-27b Negative regulator of hepatic gluconeogenesis, decreased in T2DM conditions [284] miR-27b expression downregulated in LC. Overexpression of miR-27b further suppresses EMT in LC [285]
miR-375 Increased expression in STZ treated mice, marker of β-cell death and potential predictor of diabetes. [286] Upregulation of miR-375 predicts chemoresistance induction in SCLC [287]
miR-214-3p Decreased expression in T2DM, correlates with serum insulin and HbA1c level [288] Downregulation of miR-214-3p in LC negatively correlates with FGFR1 in LC patients. Overexpression of miR-214-3p inhibits EMT and Wnt/MAPK/AKT pathway [289]
miR-let-7f-5p Decreased expression of miR-let-7f-5p in plasma exosomes of NSCLC patients [290]
miR-103 Decreased expression reported in prediabetes and diabetes rats [291] Reduced miR-103 expression negatively correlating with tumor grade seen in NSCLC tissues and cells [292]
