MicroRNA-124 (miR-124) has been reported to be downregulated in breast cancer. However, its clinical significance and prognostic value in breast cancer have not been extensively studied. The tissue expression levels of miR-124 were measured using quantitative real-time PCR in 133 breast cancer patients. The correlation between the miR-124 levels and the clinicopathological factors of the patients was also analyzed. Survival and Cox proportional-hazards regression analyses were performed to determine the correlation between miR-124 expression levels and prognosis in the patients. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis showed that miR-124 had lower expression in breast cancer specimens than that in matched adjacent normal breast tissues (0.39 ± 0.16 vs. 1.00 ± 0.39; P < 0.05). Low miR-124 expression level was significantly associated with advanced TNM stage (P = 0.011), lymph node metastasis (P = 0.012), and poorer pathological differentiation (P = 0.023). A significant difference was found that breast cancer patients with low miR-124 expression level had distinctly shorter overall survival than patients with high miR-124 expression level (63.8% vs. 35.2%, P = 0.03). Furthermore, multivariate analysis of the prognosis factors with a Cox proportional hazards model confirmed that low miR-124 expression was a significant independent predictor of poor survival in breast cancer (HR = 3.16, 95% CI: 1.79-9.13, P = 0.017). These findings proved that the decreased expression of miR-124 might be associated with tumor progression and poor prognosis in patients with breast cancer.
