Abstract: Objective To investigate the mir-99a expression in epithelial ovarian cancer(EOC), and its relationship with the clinicopathological features and prognosis. Methods The mir-99a expression in 137 cases of EOC tissues was detected with qRT-PCR assay. The correlation between mir-99a expression and clinicopathological features of EOC were analyzed. Survival curves for patients with different mir-99a expressions were plotted using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the log-rank test. Results The mir-99a expression reduced significantly in EOC tissues compared with that in adjacent normal tissues(P<0.001). Low mir-99a expression was significantly correlated with higher histological grade(P=0.027), lymph node metastasis(P=0.001), peritoneal metastasis(P<0.001), and higher FIGO stage(P<0.001). Kaplan-Meier analysis with log-rank test revealed that low mir-99a expression was correlated with short survival time of patients with EOC(log-rank test, P=0.005). Multivariate analysis showed that mir-99a expression was an independent prognostic factor for the overall survival(HR: 2.368, 95%CI: 1.621-10.925, P=0.016). Conclusion The mir-99a expression is an independent prognostic factor of patients with EOC. It can serve as a diagnostic and prognostic marker in clinical practice.
