Indeed, it has become crucial to identify and characterize other candidate glioma biomarkers using bioinformatic analysis, such as genome scanning to detect cancer-specific mutations and the identification of altered epigenetic landscapes in cancer cells or by exploring the differential expression of genes, micro RNAs (miRNAs), and proteins by transcriptomics and proteomics techniques.<sup><xref rid="bibr1-1176935120969692" ref-type="bibr">1</xref><xref rid="bibr2-1176935120969692" ref-type="bibr"></xref><xref rid="bibr3-1176935120969692" ref-type="bibr"></xref>-<xref rid="bibr4-1176935120969692" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>,<xref rid="bibr5-1176935120969692" ref-type="bibr">5</xref></sup></p><p>Among these high-throughput techniques, RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) is an effective method for robust characterization of the tumor microenvironment. The increasing use of RNA-seq in clinical and scientific contexts offers a powerful opportunity to access new therapeutic biomarkers such as miRNAs which are small noncoding RNAs of approximately 19 to 25 nucleotides in length. They can regulate various target genes and are therefore involved in the regulation of a variety of biological and pathological processes. Deregulated miRNAs have been shown to affect characteristics of cancer, including maintenance of proliferative signaling, bypassing growth suppressors, resistance to cell death, activation of invasion and metastasis, and induction of angiogenesis.

The overall content of RNA expression and miRNAs involved in LGGs, downloaded from the TCGA database, was analyzed using different types of large-scale methods, different numbers of tumor samples analyzed, as well as various reference samples (nontumor brain tissue). In this study, we have identified the DEGs involved in LGGs including astrocytomas and oligodendrogliomas. We find some genes, such as LUZP2, LOX, NNMT, and MASP1, which are more expressed in astrocytomas compared with oligodendrogliomas and genes, such as NKD2, PTPRT, ALDOC, and BCAN, which are strongly expressed in oligodendrogliomas (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig2-1176935120969692">Figures 2A</xref> and <xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig3-1176935120969692">3A</xref>). We identified the pathways and functions in which differential gene expression is involved. Previous studies have shown that some of the annotated pathways were associated with other types of cancer such as lung cancer, medulloblastoma, breast cancer, and bladder cancer.<sup><xref rid="bibr20-1176935120969692" ref-type="bibr">20</xref><xref rid="bibr21-1176935120969692" ref-type="bibr"></xref>-<xref rid="bibr22-1176935120969692" ref-type="bibr">22</xref></sup> The overall survival analysis showed that patients who have high expression of the NAP1L1 gene and low expression of the NKD2 and COL1A1 genes have poor survival, in contrast to patients who are characterized by low expression of the LOX and NAP1L1 genes with a long survival (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig2-1176935120969692">Figures 2B</xref> and <xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig3-1176935120969692">3B</xref>). Indeed, we identified 16 miRNAs that were significantly related to the overall survival of patients with LGGs (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig5-1176935120969692">Figure 5</xref>). However, it is becoming increasingly evident that cancer can rarely be attributed to a single genomic mutation. For example, genes are associated with other types of biomarkers in biological signaling pathways in the form of “networks.”</p><p>The network which links the DEGs identified shows several types of interactions. The link between the NKD2 and FUS genes is a physic interaction in which 2 gene products interact in a protein-protein interaction, or the colocalization link between the VEGFA and KDR genes means that the 2 genes are linked if they both are expressed in the same tissue or if their gene products are both identified in the same cellular location. The interaction of the 2 genes COL1A1 and GH1, which participate in the same reaction, is also found within a carbohydrate metabolism pathway. We have other types of interaction such as the functional relationships predicted between the genes as in the case between the NAP1L1 gene with both the HP1BP3 and H2AFJ genes (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig6-1176935120969692">Figure 6A</xref>). The binding of the coexpression of the genes reveals that the 2 genes have similar levels of expression; it is presented both between the DSCAML1 gene and the PTPRT gene and between the LUZP2 gene and the PEA15. We note the presence of genetic interaction between the BCAN gene and the 2 genes MLC1 and GPR68, which indicates that the genes are functionally associated if the effects of the disturbance of a gene have been shown to be modified by disturbances of a second gene (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig6-1176935120969692">Figure 6B</xref>). This new reasoning suggests that all transcripts should be combined through shared miRNA response elements (MREs), which could clarify the interactions between biomarkers and their implications for disease. A thorough analysis of the miRNAs can clarify the LGG’s progress, so we have built a network of RNAs based on large-scale TCGA data. Many studies have reported that miRNAs form complex regulatory networks in cell development, differentiation, and homeostasis. They intervene by binding to other RNAs to regulate their secondary structures, targeting them for splicing, transport, translation, and degradation. Deregulation of miRNA function is associated with an increasing number of human diseases, in particular, glioma.<sup><xref rid="bibr23-1176935120969692" ref-type="bibr">23</xref><xref rid="bibr24-1176935120969692" ref-type="bibr"></xref>-<xref rid="bibr25-1176935120969692" ref-type="bibr">25</xref></sup> Each network contains MREs for a combination of different miRNAs, and therefore, they can have an impact on several genes and target lncRNAs.<sup><xref rid="bibr23-1176935120969692" ref-type="bibr">23</xref>,<xref rid="bibr26-1176935120969692" ref-type="bibr">26</xref></sup></p><p>In this study, 16 miRNAs interact with 44 genes and 44 lncRNAs (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig7-1176935120969692">Figure 7</xref>). Some miRNAs are cited in other studies as hsa-mir-18a-5p which was identified by Chen et al<sup><xref rid="bibr27-1176935120969692" ref-type="bibr">27</xref></sup> as upregulated in brainstem gliomas.

Then, Huo et al<sup><xref rid="bibr29-1176935120969692" ref-type="bibr">29</xref></sup> have identified miR-128-3p as an inhibitor of glioma growth by attacking the neuronal pentraxin 1 protein. Also, Wu et al<sup><xref rid="bibr30-1176935120969692" ref-type="bibr">30</xref></sup> have mentioned that has-mir-124-3p represses cell growth and cell motility by targeting EphA2 in glioma. Mahmoudi and Cairns<sup><xref rid="bibr31-1176935120969692" ref-type="bibr">31</xref></sup> have revealed that mir-137 contributes to several types of cancer, such as neuroblastoma and glioblastoma multiforme. Roberta et al<sup><xref rid="bibr28-1176935120969692" ref-type="bibr">28</xref></sup> cited that gliomas express 2 miRNAs, mir-155-5p and mir-221-3p, and that these are linked to antiapoptotic effects. The miRNAs displayed in the network (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig7-1176935120969692">Figure 7</xref>) interact with genes and lncRNAs for examination; the PTEN gene is linked with has-mir-221-3p, has-mir-18a-5p, has-mir-21-5p, has-mir-155-5p, and has-mir128-3p. In other studies, Wong et al<sup><xref rid="bibr32-1176935120969692" ref-type="bibr">32</xref></sup> have shown that mir-21 inhibition has been shown to enhance the chemosensitivity of human glioblastoma to Taxol, to activate caspase-3 and -9, and to suppress growth in glioma cells independently of PTEN regulation. Also, we find that Zhang et al<sup><xref rid="bibr33-1176935120969692" ref-type="bibr">33</xref></sup> have indicated that miR-137 may target the 3’-UTR of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) to reduce its protein translation, resulting in suppression of EGFR signaling in glioblastoma cells. Concerning the SIRT1 gene, it is linked in our network with has-mir-221-3p, hsa-mir-18a-5p, hsa-mir-124-3p, and hsa-mir-155-5p. On the other hand, Romeo et al<sup><xref rid="bibr34-1176935120969692" ref-type="bibr">34</xref></sup> have suggested a role for miRNA-34a, miRNA-132, and miRNA-217 in the epigenetic control of SIRT1 during gliomagenesis and progression.
