Front Physiol 2024; 15:1291344. [PMID: 38487265 PMCID: PMC10937357 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2024.1291344] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2023] [Accepted: 01/19/2024] [Indexed: 03/17/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction: The skin is the largest organ of the human body and fulfills protective, immune, and metabolic functions. Skin function and barrier integrity are actively regulated through circadian rhythm-associated genes and epigenetic mechanisms including DNA methylation/demethylation, histone acetylation/deacetylation, and microRNAs. MicroRNA-146a-5p (miR-146a) has been associated with immune activation and skin inflammation; however, the role of miR-146a in regulating skin aging is an open question. This study investigated the role of miR-146a in fibroblasts obtained from different donors in the context of aging, and a potential association of this miRNA with circadian rhythm. Methods: Normal human dermal fibroblasts (NHDFs) from 19y, 27y, 40y, and 62y old donors were used to analyze for miR-146a expression. Expression of miR-146a was downregulated with the hsa-mirVana miR-146a inhibitor, and upregulated with an extract from Adansonia digitata. Effects on markers of skin aging, including cell proliferation, production of Collagen-1 and inflammatory cytokines were assessed. Results: We show that the expression of miR-146a decreases with age in dermal fibroblasts and inhibition of miR-146a in 19y and 62y old NHDFs induced significant changes in essential clock genes indicating an association with circadian rhythm control. Furthermore, downregulation of miR-146a results in a reduction of cellular proliferation, Collagen-1 production, as well as an increase in DNA damage and pro-inflammatory markers. Activation of miR-146a with the Adansonia digitata extract reduced the deleterious effects seen during miR-146a inhibition and increased miR-146a transport through exosome transfer. Conclusion: miR-146a interacts with multiple biological pathways related to skin aging, including circadian rhythm machinery, cell-to-cell communication, cell damage repair, cell proliferation, and collagen production and represents a promising target to fight skin aging. Adansonia digitata extract can promote miR-146a expression and therefore support skin cells' health.

Stoner L, Higgins S, Paterson C. The 24-h activity cycle and cardiovascular outcomes: establishing biological plausibility using arterial stiffness as an intermediate outcome. Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol 2023; 325:H1243-H1263. [PMID: 37737729 DOI: 10.1152/ajpheart.00258.2023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2023] [Revised: 09/07/2023] [Accepted: 09/15/2023] [Indexed: 09/23/2023]
Abstract
This review proposes a biologically plausible working model for the relationship between the 24-h activity cycle (24-HAC) and cardiovascular disease. The 24-HAC encompasses moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA), light physical activity, sedentary behavior (SB), and sleep. MVPA confers the greatest relative cardioprotective effect, when considering MVPA represents just 2% of the day if physical activity guidelines (30 min/day) are met. While we have well-established guidelines for MVPA, those for the remaining activity behaviors are vague. The vague guidelines are attributable to our limited mechanistic understanding of the independent and additive effects of these behaviors on the cardiovascular system. Our proposed biological model places arterial stiffness, a measure of vascular aging, as the key intermediate outcome. Starting with prolonged exposure to SB or static standing, we propose that the reported transient increases in arterial stiffness are driven by a cascade of negative hemodynamic effects following venous pooling. The subsequent autonomic, metabolic, and hormonal changes further impair vascular function. Vascular dysfunction can be offset by using mechanistic-informed interruption strategies and by engaging in protective behaviors throughout the day. Physical activity, especially MVPA, can confer protection by chronically improving endothelial function and associated protective mechanisms. Conversely, poor sleep, especially in duration and quality, negatively affects hormonal, metabolic, autonomic, and hemodynamic variables that can confound the physiological responses to next-day activity behaviors. Our hope is that the proposed biologically plausible working model will assist in furthering our understanding of the effects of these complex, interrelated activity behaviors on the cardiovascular system.

Abstract
BACKGROUND obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a prevalent sleep disorder that is associated with increased risk factors for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Oxidative stress, insulin resistance, inflammation, and endothelial dysfunction are increased in OSA patients and microRNAs (miRs) are regulatory elements that influence these pathological mechanisms. miR125a, miR126, and miR146a-5p play a role in these pathological mechanisms and have not been evaluated in patients with OSA. METHOD This case-control study was performed on 90 OSA patients and 34 controls. Circulating levels of miR125a, miR126, and miR146a-5 were determined using real-time PCR, and serum levels of hsCRP, ICAM-1, and VCAM-1 were evaluated using ELISA kits. RESULTS miR125a and miR146a were elevated in patients with OSA compared to controls while miR126 decreased significantly. All three miRs indicated a remarkable difference between the mild-OSA group compared to the severe-OSA group. Furthermore, patients with OSA showed elevated levels of hsCRP, ICAM-1, and VCAM-1. Multiple linear regression indicated an independent association of miR125a with ICAM-1 and hsCRP, miR126 associated with VCAM-1 and total cholesterol, and miR146a-5p represented an association with apnea-hypopnea index and ICAM-1. Furthermore, miR146a-5p illustrated a good diagnostic ability to differentiate between OSA and controls. CONCLUSIONS Circulating miR125a, miR126, and miR146a-5p fluctuations in patients with OSA and their relations with markers of endothelial dysfunction provide in vivo evidence and suggest a potential role for these miRs with endothelial dysfunction in patients with OSA.

Abstract
AIMS To identify differential expression of shorter non-coding RNA (ncRNA) genes associated with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). BACKGROUND ncRNA are functional molecules that derive from non-translated DNA sequence. The HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee (HGNC) have approved ncRNA gene classes with alignment to the reference human genome. One subset is microRNA (miRNA), which are highly conserved, short RNA molecules that regulate gene expression by direct post-transcriptional repression of messenger RNA. Several miRNA genes are implicated in the development and regulation of the nervous system. Expression of miRNA genes in ASD cohorts have been examined by multiple research groups. Other shorter classes of ncRNA have been examined less. A comprehensive systematic review examining expression of shorter ncRNA gene classes in ASD is timely to inform the direction of research. METHODS We extracted data from studies examining ncRNA gene expression in ASD compared with non-ASD controls. We included studies on miRNA, piwi-interacting RNA (piRNA), small NF90 (ILF3) associated RNA (snaR), small nuclear RNA (snRNA), small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), vault RNA (vtRNA) and Y RNA. The following electronic databases were searched: Cochrane Library, EMBASE, PubMed, Web of Science, PsycINFO, ERIC, AMED and CINAHL for papers published from January 2000 to May 2022. Studies were screened by two independent investigators with a third resolving discrepancies. Data was extracted from eligible papers. RESULTS Forty-eight eligible studies were included in our systematic review with the majority examining miRNA gene expression alone. Sixty-four miRNA genes had differential expression in ASD compared to controls as reported in two or more studies, but often in opposing directions. Four miRNA genes had differential expression in the same direction in the same tissue type in at least 3 separate studies. Increased expression was reported in miR-106b-5p, miR-155-5p and miR-146a-5p in blood, post-mortem brain, and across several tissue types, respectively. Decreased expression was reported in miR-328-3p in bloods samples. Seven studies examined differential expression from other classes of ncRNA, including piRNA, snRNA, snoRNA and Y RNA. No individual ncRNA genes were reported in more than one study. Six studies reported differentially expressed snoRNA genes in ASD. A meta-analysis was not possible because of inconsistent methodologies, disparate tissue types examined, and varying forms of data presented. CONCLUSION There is limited but promising evidence associating the expression of certain miRNA genes and ASD, although the studies are of variable methodological quality and the results are largely inconsistent. There is emerging evidence associating differential expression of snoRNA genes in ASD. It is not currently possible to say whether the reports of differential expression in ncRNA may relate to ASD aetiology, a response to shared environmental factors linked to ASD such as sleep and nutrition, other molecular functions, human diversity, or chance findings. To improve our understanding of any potential association, we recommend improved and standardised methodologies and reporting of raw data. Further high-quality research is required to shine a light on possible associations, which may yet yield important information.

Abstract
A significant proportion of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) suffer from physical and mental disorders which lead to the decline of sleep profile. Sleep disorders are highly prevalent in these patients. But the effect of sleep on the outcomes of post-PCI patients remains unclear. We aim to examine the individual and joint effects of sleep quality and sleep duration on the risk of adverse cardiovascular events in post-PCI patients. We included 314 participants who were diagnosed with a first CAD and underwent PCI with drug-eluting stents and followed up for a mean duration of 341 days to assess major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs). Sleep quality, based on the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, was categorized as good (a score of ≤7) or poor (>7). Sleep duration was categorized into three classes: ≤ 5, 6-8 (reference group) and ≥ 9 hours per day. The log-rank test and the Cox regression model were used for data analysis. MACEs occurred in 26 (8.3%) patients. Subjects whose sleep duration was ≤ 5 hours per day had a shorter time to MACEs than those whose sleep duration was 6-8 hours (p = 0.036). A significantly increased risk for MACEs was observed for participants with a ≤ 5 hours sleep duration (HR = 2.18, 95% CI = 1.02-4.64) after adjustment for demographic and clinical confounders. Associations between long sleep duration (≥ 9 hours), sleep quality, or their joint effect and MACEs were not found. This suggests the importance of considering sleep loss when developing strategies to improve health outcomes of PCI patients. And further researches are needed to examine the effects of different aspects of sleep quality on the prognosis of PCI patients and explore the reasons that lead to the decline of sleep profile.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis, a chronic inflammatory disease of the arteries that appears to have been as prevalent in ancient as in modern civilizations, is predisposing to life-threatening and life-ending cardiac and vascular complications, such as myocardial and cerebral infarctions. The pathogenesis of atherosclerosis involves intima plaque buildup caused by vascular endothelial dysfunction, cholesterol deposition, smooth muscle proliferation, inflammatory cell infiltration and connective tissue accumulation. Hypertension is an independent and controllable risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD). Conversely, atherosclerosis hardens the arterial wall and raises arterial blood pressure. Many CVD patients experience both atherosclerosis and hypertension and are prescribed medications to concurrently mitigate the two disease conditions. A substantial number of publications document that many pathophysiological changes caused by atherosclerosis and hypertension occur in a manner dependent upon circadian clocks or clock gene products. This article reviews progress in the research of circadian regulation of vascular cell function, inflammation, hemostasis and atherothrombosis. In particular, it delineates the relationship of circadian organization with signal transduction and activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system as well as disturbance of the sleep/wake circadian rhythm, as exemplified by shift work, metabolic syndromes and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), as promoters and mechanisms of atherogenesis and risk for non-fatal and fatal CVD outcomes. This article additionally updates advances in the clinical management of key biological processes of atherosclerosis to optimally achieve suppression of atherogenesis through chronotherapeutic control of atherogenic/hypertensive pathological sequelae.

Abstract
Chronic sleep deficiency (CSD) poses a threat to physical health, mental well-being, and social functioning. The concept of behaviorally induced CSD has not changed much since it was first introduced four decades ago. Behaviorally induced CSD is currently referred to as insufficient sleep syndrome (ISS). In the latest edition of the International Classification of Sleep Disorders (ICSD-3, 2014), ISS is considered a disorder of central hypersomnolence with diagnostic codes ICD-9-CM 307.44 and ICD-10-CM F51.12. In this review, we will describe the biological importance of sleep, the ramifications of CSD on the individual and society, the nosological status and diagnostic features of ISS, and the apparent lack of attention to ISS in contemporary medical practice and public health programs. The last three decades have seen a global rise in voluntary sleep curtailment such that ISS may already be the leading cause of CSD, not only in adults but also in school-aged children and adolescents. Acknowledging ISS as a public health priority is a necessary first step in our response to the global threat of CSD and CSD-related health consequences. It is only by confronting ISS directly that we can hope to develop and implement effective educational and advocacy programs, along with more responsible public health policies and regulations.

Abstract
The presence of artificial light enables humans to be active 24 h a day. Many people across the globe live in a social culture that encourages staying up late to meet the demands of various activities, such as work and school. Sleep deprivation (SD) is a severe health problem in modern society. Meanwhile, as with cardiometabolic disease, there was an obvious tendency that coronary heart disease (CHD) to become a global epidemic chronic disease. Specifically, SD can significantly increase the morbidity and mortality of CHD. However, the underlying mechanisms responsible for the effects of SD on CHD are multilayered and complex. Inflammatory response, lipid metabolism, oxidative stress, and endothelial function all contribute to cardiovascular lesions. In this review, the effects of SD on CHD development are summarized, and SD-related pathogenesis of coronary artery lesions is discussed. In general, early assessment of SD played a vital role in preventing the harmful consequences of CHD.

Abstract
Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common obesity‐associated cancers. Inflammation is also considered the most important factor between obesity and CRC. This study aimed to examine miRNAs binding sites variants on inflammatory genes identified using bioinformatics and systematic approach on clinical samples that were collected from CRC patients and controls. Methods The candidate variants related to CRC inflammatory genes were obtained from genome‐wide association studies and their population‐specific haplotypes. The variants were analyzed according to their genomic position on the miRNA targetome. Targetome variants in inflammation‐related genes were selected for genetic association study by TaqMan genotyping assay. Results The GG genotype of rs7473 decreased the risk of obesity (p < 0.05). Heterozygous genotype (GA) of rs1547715 decreased the risk of CRC (p < 0.05). In the rs7473/rs1547715 genotype and haplotype, the frequencies of AA/GA and GG/AA lessened in CRC and obesity, respectively (p < 0.05). Conclusions The variants of rs7473 and rs1547715 were associated with obesity and CRC, respectively. The above‐mentioned associations could be made based on the interactions of these variants with miRNAs.

Abstract
The endogenous circadian timekeeping system drives ~24-h rhythms in gene expression and rhythmically coordinates the physiology, metabolism and behavior in a wide range of organisms. Regulation at various levels is important for the accurate functioning of this circadian timing system. The core circadian oscillator consists of an interlocked transcriptional-translational negative feedback loop (TTFL) that imposes a substantial delay between the accumulation of clock gene mRNA and its protein to generate 24-h oscillations. This TTFL mediated daily oscillation of clock proteins is further fine-tuned by post-translational modifications that regulate the clock protein stability, interaction with other proteins and subcellular localization. Emerging evidence from various studies indicates that besides TTFL and post-translational modifications, post-transcriptional regulation plays a key role in shaping the rhythmicity of mRNAs and to delay the accumulation of clock proteins in relation to their mRNAs. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on the importance of post-transcriptional regulatory mechanisms such as splicing, polyadenylation, the role of RNA-binding proteins, RNA methylation and microRNAs in the context of shaping the circadian rhythmicity in Drosophila and mammals. In particular, we discuss microRNAs, an important player in post-transcriptional regulation of core-clock machinery, circadian neural circuit, clock input, and output pathways. Furthermore, we provide an overview of the microRNAs that exhibit diurnal rhythm in expression and their role in mediating rhythmic physiological processes.

Abstract
MicroRNAs are endogenous non-coding RNAs that are involved in numerous biological processes through regulation of gene expression. The aim of our study was to determine the ability of several miRNAs to predict mortality and response to antiplatelet treatment among T2DM patients. Two hundred fifty-two patients with diabetes were enrolled in the study. Among the patients included, 26 (10.3%) patients died within a median observation time of 5.9 years. The patients were receiving either acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) 75 mg (65%), ASA 150 mg (15%) or clopidogrel (19%). Plasma miR-126, miR-223, miR-125a-3p and Let-7e expressions were assessed by quantitative real time PCR and compared between the patients who survived and those who died. Adjusted Cox-regression analysis was used for prediction of mortality. Differential miRNA expression due to different antiplatelet treatment was analyzed. After including all miRNAs into one multivariate Cox regression model, only miR-126 was predictive of future occurrence of long-term all-cause death (HR = 5.82, 95% CI: 1.3–24.9; p = 0.024). Furthermore, miR-126, Let-7e and miR-223 expressions in the clopidogrel group were significantly higher than in the ASA group (p = 0.014; p = 0.013; p = 0.028, respectively). To conclude, miR-126 expression is a strong and independent predictor of long-term all-cause mortality among patients with T2DM. Moreover, miR-223, miR-126 and Let-7e present significant interactions with antiplatelet treatment regimens and clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Cardiovascular adaptation underlies all athletic training modalities, with a variety of factors contributing to overall response during exercise-induced stimulation. In this regard the role of circulating biomarkers is a well-established and invaluable tool for monitoring cardiovascular function. Specifically, novel biomarkers such as circulating cell free DNA and RNA are now becoming attractive tools for monitoring cardiovascular function with the advent of next generation technologies that can provide unprecedented precision and resolution of these molecular signatures, paving the way for novel diagnostic and prognostic avenues to better understand physiological remodeling that occurs in trained versus untrained states. In particular, microRNAs are a species of regulatory RNAs with pleiotropic effects on multiple pathways in tissue-specific manners. Furthermore, the identification of cell free microRNAs within peripheral circulation represents a distal signaling mechanism that is just beginning to be explored via a diversity of molecular and bioinformatic approaches. This article provides an overview of the emerging field of sports/performance genomics with a focus on the role of microRNAs as novel functional diagnostic and prognostic tools, and discusses present knowledge in the context of athletic vascular remodeling. This review concludes with current advantages and limitations, touching upon future directions and implications for applying contemporary systems biology knowledge of exercise-induced physiology to better understand how disruption can lead to pathology.

Abstract
Sleep deprivation is highly prevalent and is associated with increased cardiovascular disease (CVD) morbidity and mortality. Age-related alterations in sleep and chronobiology may exaggerate CVD susceptibility in older individuals. The mechanisms responsible for the association between sleep deprivation and CVD are not fully understood, but endothelial dysfunction may play a central role. Our objective was to conduct a systematic literature review to evaluate the evidence on the effects of sleep deprivation on endothelial function (EF). This review adhered to the PRISMA guidelines and was pre-registered with PROSPERO (#CRD42020192485, 07/24/2020). We searched PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Library for articles published through May 1, 2020. Eligibility criteria included publication in English and use of well-established EF methodologies in adult humans. Two investigators independently performed the literature search, study selection, data extraction, risk-of-bias assessment, and qualitative data synthesis. Out of 3571 articles identified, 24 articles were included in the systematic review. Main findings include the following: (1) shorter sleep duration is associated with lower macrovascular EF; (2) not sleeping 7-9 h/night is linked with impaired microvascular EF; (3) sleep restriction impairs micro- and macrovascular EF; (4) acute total sleep deprivation impairs micro- and macrovascular EF but data on macrovascular EF are less consistent; and (5) shift work impairs macrovascular EF. In conclusion, sleep deprivation impairs EF, which may explain the link between insufficient sleep and CVD. Future investigations should fully elucidate the underlying mechanisms and develop strategies to combat the adverse endothelial effects of sleep deprivation across the lifespan.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common and frequently underdiagnosed sleep disorder tightly associated with a wide range of morbidities and an elevated risk of the main causes of mortality. This condition represents a major public health concern due to its increasing worldwide prevalence and its serious pathological consequences. Current clinical guidelines support the importance of effective diagnosis and treatment of OSA and emphasize the unmet need for biomarkers to guide medical decision-making. In recent years, the noncoding transcriptome has emerged as a new opportunity for biomarker discovery. In this review, we provide a brief overview of the current understanding of noncoding RNAs, specifically microRNAs (miRNAs). Then, we carefully address the potential role of miRNAs as novel indicators for the management of both pediatric and adult OSA, highlighting their translational applicability, particularly for diagnosis and therapy allocation. Finally, we identify the gaps in the research state-of-art, discuss current methodological and conceptual limitations and propose future key steps and perspectives for the incorporation of miRNAs into routine clinical practice.

Abstract
Insufficient sleep is associated with endothelial vasomotor dysfunction and increased cardiovascular risk. Regular aerobic exercise is an effective lifestyle strategy for improving endothelial function and, in turn, reducing cardiovascular risk. We tested the hypotheses that regular aerobic exercise would 1) improve endothelial vasodilation and 2) decrease endothelin (ET)-1-mediated vasoconstrictor tone in middle-aged adults who chronically sleep <7 h/night. Thirty-six healthy, middle-aged adults were studied: 16 with normal sleep duration (age: 57 ± 2 yr; sleep duration: 7.4 ± 0.1 h/night) and 20 with short sleep duration (age: 56 ± 1 yr; sleep duration: 6.2 ± 0.1 h/night). The 20 short sleepers completed a 3-mo aerobic exercise training intervention. Forearm blood flow was determined (via plethysmography) in response to intra-arterial acetylcholine (ACh), BQ-123 (ETA receptor antagonist), ACh + BQ-123, and sodium nitroprusside. Forearm blood flow responses to ACh were lower (∼20%; P < 0.05) in the short (from 4.2 ± 0.2 to 10.5 ± 0.6 mL/100 mL tissue/min) versus normal (4.2 ± 0.2 to 12.7 ± 0.6 mL/100 mL tissue/min) sleepers. In response to BQ-123, the short-sleep group had a significantly greater increase in resting forearm blood flow than the normal-sleep group (∼25% vs. ∼8%). ACh + BQ-123 resulted in a significant (∼25%) increase in the ACh-mediated vasodilation in the short-sleep group only. After exercise training, although nightly sleep duration was unchanged (6.4 ± 0.1 h/night), ACh-mediated vasodilation was significantly higher (∼20%), ET-1-mediated vasoconstriction was significantly lower (∼80%), and the vasodilator response to ACh was not increased with ETA receptor blockade. Regular aerobic exercise, independent of changes in nightly sleep duration, can counteract insufficient sleep-related endothelial vasomotor dysfunction.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Habitual insufficient nightly sleep (<7 h/night) is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease and events. Endothelial dysfunction, specifically reduced endothelium-dependent vasodilation and increased endothelin (ET)-1-mediated vasoconstriction, is considered to be a major contributing mechanism underlying increased vascular risk with insufficient sleep. In contrast to insufficient sleep, regular aerobic exercise enhances endothelial vasomotor function, reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease and associated events. In the present study, we determined the effects of aerobic exercise training on endothelium-dependent vasodilation and ET-1 vasoconstriction in adults who habitually sleep <7 h/night. After exercise training, although nightly sleep duration was unchanged, endothelium-dependent vasodilation was significantly enhanced and ET-1-mediated vasoconstrictor tone was significantly reduced in adults who sleep <7 h/night. Regular aerobic exercise training can mitigate insufficient sleep-related endothelial vasomotor dysfunction and, in turn, potentially reduce the cardiovascular risk associated with habitual insufficient nightly sleep.

Abstract
PURPOSE Persistent poor sleep quality leads to impaired cognitive performance and an inability to perform daily activities. Biomarker-assisted diagnosis is important for the early treatment of poor sleep quality; however, diagnostic biomarkers for poor sleep quality remain unidentified. Circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) have been reported to be linked to the pathogenesis of poor sleep quality, indicating their possible role in sleep problem diagnosis. The present study aimed to identify potential miRNA biomarkers for poor sleep quality. PATIENTS AND METHODS Differentially expressed serum miRNAs in patients with poor sleep quality and healthy controls (n=20) were analyzed via small RNA sequencing. Two-step quantitative RT-PCR in the two independent populations and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analyses were used to validate the identified miRNAs. In silico analysis was then used to identify the target genes. RESULTS Of the 59 circulating miRNAs identified via differential analysis, six were validated for differential expression by quantitative RT-PCR (n=60). Two of these six miRNAs, miR-4433b-3p and miR-619-5p, were reconfirmed in the second validation with an independent validation cohort (n=59). ROC analyses (n=40) revealed the probability of the two miRNAs as potential biomarkers with areas under the ROC curve (AUCs) of 0.81 and 0.70, respectively. The combined AUC was 0.86, which was much higher than that of each miRNA. Using in silico target gene analysis, the target genes of the two miRNAs were identified to be associated with the regulation of the circadian rhythm and inflammatory pathways. CONCLUSION Our results revealed that miR-619-5p and miR-4433b-3p could be developed as potential diagnostic biomarkers for poor sleep quality. The combination of both miRNAs may be more effective than the use of the individual miRNA for sleep problem diagnosis.

Abstract
Sleep is critical for the maintenance of physiological homeostasis and, as such, inadequate sleep beckons a myriad of pathologies. Sleep deprivation is a growing health concern in contemporary society since short sleep durations are associated with increased cardiovascular disease risk and atherosclerotic plaque development. Vascular endothelial dysfunction is an antecedent to atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease. Herein, we review seminal literature indicating that short sleep durations attenuate endothelial function and explore more recent evidence indicating that sleep deprivation perturbs autonomic balance and the circadian rhythmicity of peripheral vascular clock components. We further examine literature that indicates a mechanistic link between short sleep duration and endothelial dysfunction and subsequent morbidity. Understanding the mechanisms that regulate endothelial function in the context of sleep deprivation facilitates the development and optimization of interventions, such as exercise, that mitigate the ramifications of inadequate sleep on vascular function and cardiovascular health.Listen to this article's corresponding podcast at https://ajpheart.podbean.com/e/sleep-deprivation-and-endothelial-function/.

Abstract
Circadian rhythms are endogenous 24-h oscillators that regulate the sleep/wake cycles and the timing of biological systems to optimize physiology and behavior for the environmental day/night cycles. The systems are basically generated by transcription-translation feedback loops combined with post-transcriptional and post-translational modification. Recently, evidence is emerging that additional non-coding RNA-based mechanisms are also required to maintain proper clock function. MicroRNA is an especially important factor that plays critical roles in regulating circadian rhythm as well as many other physiological functions. Circadian misalignment not only disturbs the sleep/wake cycle and rhythmic physiological activity but also contributes to the development of various diseases, such as sleep disorders and neurodegenerative diseases. The patient with neurodegenerative diseases often experiences profound disruptions in their circadian rhythms and/or sleep/wake cycles. In addition, a growing body of recent evidence implicates sleep disorders as an early symptom of neurodegenerative diseases, and also suggests that abnormalities in the circadian system lead to the onset and expression of neurodegenerative diseases. The genetic mutations which cause the pathogenesis of familial neurodegenerative diseases have been well studied; however, with the exception of Huntington's disease, the majority of neurodegenerative diseases are sporadic. Interestingly, the dysfunction of microRNA is increasingly recognized as a cause of sporadic neurodegenerative diseases through the deregulated genes related to the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disease, some of which are the causative genes of familial neurodegenerative diseases. Here we review the interplay of circadian rhythm disruption, sleep disorders and neurodegenerative disease, and its relation to microRNA, a key regulator of cellular processes.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Sleep is an essential component of human health, and suboptimal sleep duration has been associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. This review summarizes physiological and pathological effects of sleep duration on the cardiovascular system. RECENT FINDINGS Both decreased and increased duration of sleep lead to increased cardiovascular mortality and has a U-shaped curve. Sleep apnea is an independent risk factor for atherosclerosis and hypertension, and its treatment with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) results in increased survival. Estimated sleep duration of 6-8 h is associated with decreased mortality and major cardiovascular events and should be addressed by clinicians during routine visits.

Abstract
NEW FINDINGS What is the central question of this study? Are differential patterns of circulating miRNAs associated with sleep duration in normal-weight European children and adolescents? What is the main finding and its importance? Differences in the expression level of circulating miR-26b-3p and miR-485-5p are positively associated with total sleep duration in healthy normal-weight children and adolescents. ABSTRACT It is commonly recognized that sleep is essential for children's health, and that insufficient sleep duration is associated with negative health outcomes. In humans, sleep duration and quality are influenced by genetic, environmental and social factors. Epigenetic mechanisms, likewise, regulate circadian rhythms and sleep patterns. In the present study, we aimed to identify circulating microRNAs associated with sleep duration in a subsample of normal-weight European children/adolescents (n = 111) participating in the I.Family Study. Subjects were divided into two groups based upon self-reported sleep duration, according to the recommended amount of sleep for paediatric populations. Sleep needs for children <13 years were at least 9 h per day, and for children >13 were at least 8 h per day. There were group differences (short sleepers versus normal sleepers) in circulating levels of miR-26b-3p (mean (95% CI) = 2.0 (1.3-2.7) versus 2.3 (1.9-2.7), P = 0.05) and miR-485-5p (mean (95% CI) = 0.6 (0.3-0.9) versus 0.9 (0.7 - 1.0), P < 0.001), adjusting for country of origin, age, sex, pubertal status, screen time and highest educational level of parents. Our findings show for the first time that sleep duration reflects the profile of specific circulating microRNAs in school-aged children and adolescents. It is conceivable that epigenetic modifications, mainly related to circadian rhythm control, may be modulated or interfere with sleep duration.
