Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) has a distinctive geographic distribution and is characterised by its strong tendency of metastasis. We aimed to examine the microRNA (miRNA) expression profiles in plasma samples of NPC patients to explore their clinical significance in disease development and progression. This study was divided into four steps: (1) confirmation of differentially expressed miRNAs using microarray analysis and quantitative PCR validation; (2) comparison of plasma miR-9 levels during NPC progression; (3) evaluation of the predictive performance of plasma miR-9 as a biomarker for NPC metastasis; and (4) comparison of plasma miR-9 levels between pre- and post-treatment samples. Plasma microarray profiling identified 33 differentially expressed miRNAs between NPC patients and healthy volunteers. The significantly declined level of miR-9 in NPC patients was confirmed through two-stage validation. The low level of plasma miR-9 was significantly correlated with worse lymphatic invasion and advanced TNM stage. The plasma miR-9 could distinguish locoregional from metastatic NPC cases with a high sensitivity and specificity. Furthermore, the plasma miR-9 level was significantly elevated in post-treatment plasma compared with those pre-treatment samples. Our study reports that plasma miR-9 may serve as a useful biomarker to predict NPC metastasis and to monitor tumour dynamics.
