Popis: Osteosarcoma is the most common malignant bone tumor. Early diagnosis remains a major challenge, mainly because of the lack of specific biomarkers. We performed miRNAs expression analysis through qPCR in affected and paired healthy bone derived from osteosarcoma patients. Hierarchical clustering using the top ten miRNAs with differential expression showed two main clusters. One integrated by patients with the presence of metastasis or relapse and the other without these complications. Further pathway enrichment analysis reduced to four main miRNAs, hsa-miR-486-3p, hsa-miR-355-5p, hsa-miR-34a-5p and hsa-miR-1228-3p. Afterwards, we compared patients with and without metastasis, the function enrichment analysis along with review of relevant literature, showed that hsa-miR-93-5p and hsa-miR-28-5p were associated with metastasis development. Our results support the relevance of miRNAs in the pathogenesis of osteosarcoma and contribute with evidence regarding the potential role of miRNAs as potential biomarkers. More studies are needed to define the most informative miRNAs in osteosarcoma patients.
