Circulating miRNAs as Biomarkers for Prostate Cancer Diagnosis in Subjects with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

Figure 4

Correlations between the miRNAs and the TPSA level or Gleason score in the PCa subjects. (a) The correlation between miR-141 and TPSA, (b) the correlation between miR-182 and TPSA, (c) the correlation between miR-200b and TPSA, (d) the correlation between miR-375 and TPSA, and (e) the correlation between miR-375 and the Gleason score. In our hospital, TPSA levels of higher than 100 ng/mL were marked as >100 rather than an extract number; thus, the subjects with TPSA levels greater than 100 ng/mL were excluded from the correlation analysis between the miRNAs and the TPSA level.
