[PMID: 34528899 PMCID: PMC8507268 DOI: 10.18632/aging.203533] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2021] [Accepted: 08/17/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
Background: The extracellular vesicles (EVs) secreted by bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) have the ability to improve Myocardial infarction (MI). Some microRNAs (miRNAs) including miR-497 and related target genes have been proved to be closely linked with heart diseases. However, EVs could regulate MI process through miR-497, and the mechanisms have not been fully reported. Methods: Ligation of left anterior descending artery was performed to established MI animals model. Hypoxia cell model was established through lowering the level of oxygen. The cell invasion, migration, and proliferation were measured using tanswell, wound heating, and MTT assays. HE, Masson trichrome, and Sirius Red staining were used to investigate the morphological changes. Results: Overexpression of miR-497 reversed the promotion of cell migration, invasion, and proliferation caused by EVs. The improvement of cardiac function induced by EVs could also be reversed by overexpression of miR-497. Direct binding site between Smad7 and miR-497 was identified. Knockdown of Smad7 reversed the improvement of cardiac function induced by EVs. Conclusions: We found that EVs isolated from MSCs might improve the cardiac injury caused by MI through targeting miR497/Smad7. This study provides novel potential therapeutic thought for the prevention and treatment of MI through targeting miR-497/Smad7.

Front Genet 2021; 12:668324. [PMID: 34220945 PMCID: PMC8248539 DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2021.668324] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2021] [Accepted: 05/04/2021] [Indexed: 01/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Background/Aims: This study aimed to compare the clinical value of the peak time point and area under the curve (AUC) of miRNAs and conventional biomarkers in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods: A literature search was carried out in PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane systematically. Screening studies, extracting data, and assessing article quality were performed independently by two researchers. Also, the names of miRNAs in the included studies were standardized by the miRBase database. Results: A total of 40 studies, encompassing 6,960 participants, were included in this systematic review. The samples of circulating miRNAs were mainly from the plasma. The results of this systematic review displayed that miR-1-3p, miR-19b-3p, miR-22-5p, miR-122-5p, miR-124-3p, miR-133a/b, miR-134-5p, miR-150-5p, miR-186-5p, miR-208a, miR-223-3p, miR-483-5p, and miR-499a-5p reached peak time earlier and showed a shorter time window than the conventional biomarkers despite the different collection times of initial blood samples. miR-1-3p, miR-19b-3p, miR-133a/b, miR-208a/b, miR-223-3p, miR-483-5p, and miR-499a-5p were shown to be more valuable than classical biomarkers for the early diagnosis of AMI, and these miRNAs appeared to have the most potential biomarkers within 4 h of the onset of symptoms except miR-133a/b and miR-208b. Moreover, combined miRNAs or miRNAs combined with classical biomarkers could compensate for the deficiency of single miRNA and conventional biomarker in sensitivity or specificity for an optimal clinical value. Conclusions: miR-1-3p, miR-19b-3p, miR-208a, miR-223-3p, miR-483-5p, and miR-499a-5p are promising biomarkers for AMI due to their satisfactory diagnostic accuracy and short time window (within 4 h of the onset of symptoms).

Ther Clin Risk Manag 2021; 17:563-570. [PMID: 34113113 PMCID: PMC8185456 DOI: 10.2147/tcrm.s309800] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/05/2021] [Accepted: 05/05/2021] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of plasma miRNA-497, cardiac troponin I (cTnI), fatty acid binding protein 3 (FABP3), glycogen phosphorylase isoenzyme BB (GPBB) in pediatric sepsis complicated with myocardial injury. Methods From August 2018 to February 2020, 82 children with sepsis admitted to our hospital and 50 health children who came for physical examination (defined as control group) were enrolled in this study. Children with sepsis and myocardial injury were enrolled in the combined group (n=35), and those without myocardial injury were enrolled in the sepsis group (n=47). General data of three groups were collected, and the levels of miRNA-497, FABP3, GPBB, creatine kinase isoenzyme MB (CK-MB), procalcitonin (PCT), C-reactive protein (CRP), cTnI and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) were detected and the cardiac function was measured. The diagnostic value of plasma miRNA-497, cTnI, FABP3 and GPBB in pediatric sepsis complicated with myocardial injury was analyzed. Results The infection site of the combined group was not significantly different from that of the sepsis group. The levels of miRNA-497, FABP3, GPBB, CK-MB, PCT, CRP, cTnI, NT-proBNP in the combined group were all higher than those in the sepsis group and the control group (P<0.05), and the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in the combined group was significantly lower than that in the other two group (P<0.05). The area under the curve (AUC) of the combination of miRNA-497, FABP3, GPBB, and cTnI in the diagnosis of sepsis complicated with myocardial injury was significantly higher than that of CK-MB, PCT, CRP, NT-proBNP alone (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference when compared with miRNA-497, FABP3, GPBB and cTnI alone (P>0.05). When the optimal thresholds of miRNA-497, FABP3, GPBB, and cTnI were set to 2.03, 6.23ng/mL, 4.01ng/mL, 1.23ng/mL, respectively, the sensitivity was 95.65%, 88.89%, 82.61%, 87.50%, respectively; the specificity was 83.33%, 94.12%, 83.33%, 90.91%, respectively; and the accuracy was 91.43%, 91.43%, 82.86%, 88.57%, respectively. Pearson correlation analysis indicating that miRNA-497 was positively correlated with the levels of FABP3, GPBB, and cTnI in the combined group (r=0.821, 0.621, 0.782, P<0.05). Conclusion Plasma miRNA-497, cTnI, FABP3, and GPBB levels were increased in pediatric sepsis complicated with myocardial injury, and their combination had high diagnostic value, which was of great clinical significance for early diagnosis and early treatment of pediatric sepsis complicated with myocardial injury.

Value of Blood-Based microRNAs in the Diagnosis of Acute Myocardial Infarction: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Front Physiol 2020; 11:691. [PMID: 32922300 PMCID: PMC7456928 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2020.00691] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2020] [Accepted: 05/27/2020] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Recent studies have shown that blood-based miRNAs are dysregulated in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and are therefore a potential tool for the diagnosis of AMI. Therefore, this study summarized and evaluated studies focused on microRNAs as novel biomarkers for the diagnosis of AMI from the last ten years. Methods: MEDLINE, the Cochrane Central database, and EMBASE were searched between January 2010 and December 2019. Studies that assessed the diagnostic accuracy of circulating microRNAs in AMI were chosen. The pooled sensitivity, specificity, positive likelihood ratio, negative likelihood ratio, diagnostic odds ratio, and area under the curve (AUC) were used to assess the test performance of miRNAs. Results: A total of 58 studies that included 8,206 participants assessed the diagnostic accuracy of circulating miRNAs in AMI. The main results of the meta-analyses are as follows: (1) Total miRNAs: the overall pooled sensitivity and specificity were 0.82 (95% CI: 0.79-0.85) and 0.87 (95% CI: 0.84-0.90), respectively. The AUC value was 0.91 (95% CI: 0.88-0.93) in the overall summary receiver operator characteristic (SROC) curve. (2) The panel of two miRNAs: sensitivity: 0.88 (95% CI: 0.77-0.94), specificity: 0.84 (95% CI: 0.72-0.91), AUC: 0.92 (95% CI: 0.90-0.94). (3) The panel of three miRNAs: sensitivity: 0.91 (95% CI: 0.85-0.94), specificity: 0.87 (95% CI: 0.77-0.92), AUC: 0.92 (95% CI: 0.89-0.94). (4) Results by types of miRNAs: miRNA-1: sensitivity: 0.78 (95% CI: 0.71-0.84), specificity: 0.86 (95% CI: 0.77-0.91), AUC: 0.88 (95% CI: 0.85-0.90); miRNA-133a: sensitivity: 0.85 (95% CI: 0.69-0.94), specificity: 0.92 (95% CI: 0.61-0.99), AUC: 0.93 (95% CI: 0.91-0.95); miRNA-208b: sensitivity: 0.80 (95% CI: 0.69-0.88), specificity: 0.96 (95% CI: 0.77-0.99), AUC: 0.91 (95% CI: 0.88-0.93); miRNA-499: sensitivity: 0.85 (95% CI: 0.77-0.91), specificity: 0.95 (95% CI: 0.89-0.98), AUC: 0.96 (95% CI: 0.94-0.97). Conclusion: miRNAs may be used as potential biomarkers for the detection of AMI. For single, stand-alone miRNAs, miRNA-499 may have better diagnostic accuracy compared to other miRNAs. We propose that a panel of multiple miRNAs with high sensitivity and specificity should be tested.

Abstract
Acute coronary syndrome (ACS), consisting of acute myocardial infarction and unstable angina, is the most dangerous and fatal form of coronary heart disease. Acute coronary syndrome has sudden onset and rapid development, which may lead to malignant life-threatening conditions at any time. Therefore, early detection and diagnosis are critical for patients with ACS. Recent studies have found that noncoding RNA is of great significance in the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. In this review, we summarized recent data on circulating noncoding RNAs (including microRNA, long noncoding RNA, and circular RNA) as diagnostic and prognostic markers in ACS including acute myocardial infarction and unstable angina. Specifically, microRNAs (miRNAs) as diagnostic markers are divided into three types: miRNAs of increased expression in ACS, miRNAs of decreased expression in ACS, and miRNAs of contradictory expression in ACS. Moreover, we described these miRNAs of increased expression in ACS based on miRNAs family. This review may result in a great guidance of noncoding RNAs as biomarkers for ACS in clinical practice.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases are the number one cause of death worldwide and greatly impact quality of life and medical costs. Enormous effort has been made in research to obtain new tools for efficient and quick diagnosis and predicting the prognosis of these diseases. Discoveries of epigenetic mechanisms have related several pathologies, including cardiovascular diseases, to epigenetic dysregulation. This has implications on disease progression and is the basis for new preventive strategies. Advances in methodology and big data analysis have identified novel mechanisms and targets involved in numerous diseases, allowing more individualized epigenetic maps for personalized diagnosis and treatment. This paves the way for what is called pharmacoepigenetics, which predicts the drug response and develops a tailored therapy based on differences in the epigenetic basis of each patient. Similarly, epigenetic biomarkers have emerged as a promising instrument for the consistent diagnosis and prognosis of cardiovascular diseases. Their good accessibility and feasible methods of detection make them suitable for use in clinical practice. However, multicenter studies with a large sample population are required to determine with certainty which epigenetic biomarkers are reliable for clinical routine. Therefore, this review focuses on current discoveries regarding epigenetic biomarkers and its controversy aiming to improve the diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy in cardiovascular patients.

Cardioprotective effects of microRNA-18a on acute myocardial infarction by promoting cardiomyocyte autophagy and suppressing cellular senescence via brain derived neurotrophic factor. Cell Biosci 2019; 9:38.

Abstract
Background The prevention of cardiovascular diseases is a matter of great concern, of which acute myocardial infarction (AMI) remains one of the leading causes of death resulting in high morbidity worldwide. Emerging evidence highlights the importance of microRNAs (miRNAs) as functional regulators in cardiovascular disease. In this study, an AMI rat model was established in order to investigate the effect of miR-18a on cardiomyocyte autophagy and senescence in AMI and the underlying mechanism. Methods In the present study, an AMI model was induced by ligating the anterior descending branch of left coronary artery in Wistar rats. Dual-luciferase reporter gene assay was introduced for exploration on the relationship between miR-18a and brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). The gain- and loss-of-function experiments were performed to elucidate miR-18a and BDNF effects on cell autophagy and senescence in AMI by transfecting hypoxia-exposed H9c2 cells with miR-18a inhibitor or mimic, siRNA against BDNF, or hypoxia-exposed H9c2 cell treatment with an agonist of the Akt/mTOR axis (LM22B-10). Results Upregulation of miR-18a was found in AMI, while downregulation was present in BDNF to activate the Akt/mTOR axis. Compared with the miR-18a inhibitor group, the expression of p-Akt and p-mTOR increased and the number of senescent cells increased in the miR-18a inhibitor + LM22B-10 group, and the expression of Beclin1, LC3-II, p62 decreased and autophagy decreased (all p < 0.05). Furthermore, this could be rescued by knocking down BDNF or Akt/mTOR axis activation by LM22B-10. Conclusion All in all, downregulation of miR-18a could promote BDNF expression, which offers protection against AMI by inactivating the Akt/mTOR axis, highlighting a promising therapeutic strategy for AMI treatment.

Abstract
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a main threat to human lives worldwide. Early and accurate diagnoses warrant immediate medical care, which would reduce mortality and improve prognoses. Circulating non-coding RNAs have been demonstrated to serve as competent biomarkers for various diseases. Following the identification of cardiac-specific microRNA miR-208a in circulation, more non-coding RNAs (miR-1, miR-499 and miR-133) have been identified as biomarkers not only for the diagnosis of AMI but also for prognosis post infarction. Here, we summarized recent findings on non-coding RNAs as biomarkers for early diagnosis of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and for disease monitoring of myocardial infarction. In addition, the prognostic potential of non-coding RNAs in patients treated with percutaneous coronary intervention was also described. We also include studies based on biobanks, and build a miRNA release spectrum after AMI, which provides quantitative and time-lapse monitoring of AMI progress. With this spectrum, we are able to customize personal medical care, which prevents further damage. By constructing a network of circulating non-coding RNAs with high specificity and sensitivity, detailed diagnostic information was provided for personalized medicine. Unveiling the roles and kinetics of circulating non-coding RNAs may lead to a revolution in clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the expression of plasma miRNA-497 in children with sepsis-induced myocardial injury and its clinical significance. METHODS A total of 148 children with sepsis were enrolled. According to the presence or absence of myocardial injury, these children were divided into myocardial injury group (n=58) and non-myocardial injury group (n=90). The two groups were compared in terms of the changes in plasma levels of miRNA-497, cardiac troponin I (cTnI), creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB), N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), procalcitonin (PCT), and C-reactive protein (CRP) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted to evaluate the value of plasma miRNA-497, cTnI, and CK-MB in the diagnosis of myocardial injury. A Pearson correlation analysis was used to determine the correlation of miRNA-497 with cTnI, CK-MB, NT-proBNP, PCT, CRP, and LVEF. RESULTS Compared with the non-myocardial injury group, the myocardial injury group had significantly higher plasma levels of miRNA-497, cTnI, CK-MB, NT-proBNP, PCT, and CRP (P<0.05). Plasma miRNA-497, cTnI, and CK-MB when measured alone or in combination had an area under the ROC curve of 0.918, 0.931, 0.775, and 0.940 respectively. At the optimal cut-off value of 2.05, miRNA-497 had a sensitivity of 90.4% and a specificity of 91.2%. The correlation analysis showed that there was a good correlation between plasma miRNA-497 and cTnI in children with myocardial injury (r=0.728, P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS Plasma miRNA-497 has a similar value as cTnI in the diagnosis of sepsis-induced myocardial injury in children and may be used as a potential marker for early diagnosis of myocardial injury.

Abstract
This study deciphered the molecular mechanisms of the inhibition of MMP-9 expression using rosuvastatin in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and apoE knockout mice and whether the combination of rosuvastatin and probucol enhanced this effect. The role that microRNA (miR)-497 plays in the regulation of MMP-9 expression was evaluated in cultured HUVECs and apoE knockout mice using quantitative real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting. First, TNFα significantly increased mitogen-activated protein kinases/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (MAPK/ERK) signaling and MMP-9 levels, and the transfection of miR-497 prevented this increase. The converse results were obtained after miR-497 suppression. Second, the administration of rosuvastatin or the combination of two drugs decreased MAPK/ERK signaling and MMP-9 levels, and the suppression of miR-497 upregulated these levels. Third, the administration of rosuvastatin or the combination of two drugs increased miR-497 expression levels in the aortas of apoE knockout mice, but the levels of serum lipids and plaque areas decreased, which improved plaque components and decreased the MAPK/ERK signaling and MMP-9 levels. Finally, the combination of the two drugs was more effective than the use of rosuvastatin alone. Rosuvastatin inhibits MMP-9 expression by upregulating miR-497 in HUVECs and apoE knockout mice, and the combination of rosuvastatin and probucol enhances this effect.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that inhibit gene expression by binding to the 3' untranslated region (3'-UTR) of their target mRNAs. Recent studies show that miR-497 plays an important role in various cancers. Here, we summarize the existing studies of miR-497 as following: (1) miR-497 expression in cancer; (2) regulation mechanisms of miR-497 expression; (3) function of miR-497 in cancer; (4) direct targets of miR-497; (5) Clinical applications of miR-497. Recent analyses verify that miR-497 mainly suppresses tumors; however, it also acts as an oncogene in several cancers. Increasing evidence indicates that miR-497 can serve as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker and is a promising therapeutic target for future clinical applications.

Cardiovasc Res 2016; 111:322-37. [PMID: 27357636 PMCID: PMC4996262 DOI: 10.1093/cvr/cvw174] [Citation(s) in RCA: 248] [Impact Index Per Article: 31.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2016] [Accepted: 05/19/2016] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
The aim of the present study is to identify microRNAs (miRs) with high potential to be used as biomarkers in plasma and/or serum to clinically diagnose, or provide accurate prognosis for survival in, patients with atherosclerosis, coronary artery disease, and acute coronary syndrome (ACS). A systematic search of published original research yielded a total of 72 studies. After review of the risk of bias of the published studies, according to Cochrane Collaboration and the QUADUAS Group standards, 19 studies were selected. Overall 52 different miRs were reported. In particular, miR-133a/b (5 studies), miR-208a/b (6 studies), and miR-499 (7 studies) were well studied and found to be significant diagnostic and/or prognostic markers across different cardiovascular disease progression stages. miR-1 and miR-145b are potential biomarkers of ACS; miR-1 with higher sensitivity for all acute myocardial infarction (AMI), and miR-145 for STEMI and worse outcome of AMI. But when miRs were studied across different ACS study populations, patients had varying degrees of coronary stenosis, which was identified as an important confounder that limited the ability to quantitatively pool the study results. The identified miRs were found to regulate endothelial function and angiogenesis (miR-1, miR-133), vascular smooth muscle cell differentiation (miR-133, miR-145), communication between vascular smooth muscle and endothelial cell to stabilize plaques (miR-145), apoptosis (miR-1, miR-133, miR-499), cardiac myocyte differentiation (miR-1, miR-133, miR-145, miR-208, miR-499), and to repress cardiac hypertrophy (miR-133). Their role in these processes may be explained by regulation of shared RNA targets such as cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1A (or p21), ETS proto-oncogene 1, fascin actin-bundling protein 1, hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated potassium channel 4, insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor LIM and SH3 protein 1, purine nucleoside phosphorylase, and transgelin 2. These mechanistic data further support the clinical relevance of the identified miRs. miR-1, miR-133a/b, miR-145, miR-208a/b, and miR-499(a) in plasma and/or serum show some potential for diagnosis of cardiovascular disease. However, biased selection of miRs in most studies and unexplained contrasting results are major limitations of current miR research. Inconsistencies need to be addressed in order to definitively identify clinically useful miRs. Therefore, this paper presents important aspects to improve future miR research, including unbiased selection of miRs, standardization/normalization of reference miRs, adjustment for patient comorbidities and medication, and robust protocols of data-sharing plans that could prevent selective publication and selective reporting of miR research outcomes.

MicroRNA profiling of pericardial fluid samples from patients with heart failure. PLoS One 2015; 10:e0119646. [PMID: 25763857 PMCID: PMC4357463 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0119646] [Citation(s) in RCA: 55] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/11/2014] [Accepted: 02/01/2015] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
AIMS Multicellular organisms maintain vital functions through intercellular communication. Release of extracellular vesicles that carry signals to even distant target organs is one way of accomplishing this communication. MicroRNAs can also be secreted from the cells in exosomes and act as paracrine signalling molecules. In addition, microRNAs have been implicated in the pathogenesis of a large number of diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, and are considered as promising candidate biomarkers due to their relative stability and easy quantification from clinical samples. Pericardial fluid contains hormones secreted by the heart and is known to reflect the cardiac function. In this study, we sought to investigate whether pericardial fluid contains microRNAs and if so, whether they could be used to distinguish between different cardiovascular pathologies and disease stages. METHODS AND RESULTS Pericardial fluid was collected from heart failure patients during open-heart surgery. MicroRNA profiles of altogether 51 patients were measured by quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) using Exiqon human panels I and II. On the average, 256 microRNAs were detected per sample, and 70 microRNAs out of 742 profiled microRNAs were detected in every sample. The five most abundant microRNAs in pericardial fluid were miR-21-5p, miR-451a, miR-125b-5p, let-7b-5p and miR-16-5p. No specific signatures for cardiovascular pathologies or clinically assessed heart failure stages could be detected from the profiles and, overall, microRNA profiles of the samples were found to be very similar despite the heterogeneity in the study population. CONCLUSION Measured microRNA profiles did not separate the samples according to the clinical features of the patients. However, several previously identified heart failure marker microRNAs were detected. The pericardial fluid microRNA profile appeared to be a result of an active and selective secretory process indicating that microRNAs may act as paracrine signalling factors by mediating the local crosstalk between cardiac cells.
