[PMID: 38975002 PMCID: PMC11223935 DOI: 10.21037/cdt-23-385] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2023] [Accepted: 04/19/2024] [Indexed: 07/09/2024]
Abstract
Background Both early detection and treatment for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) have positively affected prognosis. A microRNA, miRNA-21 (miR-21), may have additional diagnostic potential for ACS among the others. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the potential role of miR-21 in identifying ACS. Methods PubMed, EMBASE and CENTRAL databases were searched up to March 17, 2024, for case-control and cohort studies assessing the diagnostic value of circulating miR-21 in patients with ACS. The search was limited to studies published in either English or Chinese. The primary outcome was the discriminative ability to circulate miR-21 for ACS, represented by the area under the standard receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) analysis. Meta-analyses combined the AUCs using a random-effects model. Heterogeneity among the studies was detected by the I2 and Q statistics. The quality of the studies included was assessed using the Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies-2. Publication bias analysis was assessed constructing by the Egger's test (PROSPERO: CRD42020209424). Results Eleven case-control studies containing a total of 2,413 subjects with 1,236 ACS cases and 1,177 controls were included. The mean age of participants in these studies ranges between 51.0 and 69.0 years. The meta-analysis showed an overall pooled AUC of 0.779 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.715-0.843], with high heterogeneity noted between the studies (Q statistic =190.64, I2=94.23%, P<0.001). In subgroup analyses according to the subtypes of ACS, a pooled AUC of 0.767 (95% CI: 0.648-0.887) was derived from the studies focused on acute myocardial infarction cases only. The pooled AUC for unstable angina was 0.770 (95% CI: 0.718-0.822). In subgroup analyses according to the types of control groups, pooled AUC for ACS versus healthy controls was 0.779 (95% CI: 0.715-0.843), whereas the pooled AUC for ACS versus unhealthy controls was 0.740 (95% CI: 0.645-0.836). The quality assessment showed that the studies' overall quality was moderate. No evidence of publication bias was noted (P=0.49). Conclusions Circulating miR-21 shows abilities to differentiate between ACS and non-ACS, suggesting its potential as a novel diagnostic biomarker for ACS. However, the evidence is weakened by high heterogeneity observed among the studies. Further research is essential before it can be applied in clinical practice.

[PMID: 37376990 DOI: 10.1080/00015385.2023.2227484] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2022] [Revised: 05/31/2023] [Accepted: 06/11/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND MicroRNAs have been found to have an essential role in cardiovascular diseases. In previous experiments, the changed expressions of miR-26a-5p and miR-19a-3p were confirmed in patients with severe coronary atherosclerosis by miRNA microarrays. However, the role of two miRNAs in coronary artery diseases (CAD) still needs to be investigated further. Our current study aimed to analyse two miRNAs in angiographically confirmed CAD and non-CAD with insignificant coronary stenosis. This study aimed to identify the potential diagnostic value of circulating miRNA with CAD. METHODS The CAD patients (n = 50) and non-CAD controls (n = 43) were studied. miRNAs (miR-26a-5p and miR-19a-3p) were quantified by TaqMan miRNA assays using real-time PCR. We subsequently assessed the diagnostic value of the miRNAs and correlations of miRNA with clinical parameters. Target prediction tools were utilised to identify miRNA target genes. RESULTS The expression of miR-26a-5p was significantly increased in CAD compared to non-CAD controls (p < 0.05). Tertile groups were formed according to the expression levels of miRNAs, and high expression tertile (T3) was compared with low expression tertile (T1). It was found that CAD presence was more prevalent in T3 of miR-26a-5p, and the frequency of diabetes was higher in T3 of miR-19a-3p. There were significant correlations between miRNAs and diabetes risk factors such as HbA1c, glucose levels, and BMI (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Our findings show that miR-26a-5p expression is altered in CAD presence while miR-19a-3p expression is different in diabetes. Both miRNAs are closely related to risk factors of CAD, therefore, could be therapeutic targets for CAD treatment.

Abstract
Globally, acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the leading cause of death. Early and precise diagnosis is essential for medical care to enhance prognoses and reduce mortality. The diagnosis of AMI relies primarily on conventional circulating biomarkers. However, these markers have many drawbacks. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) form a significant fraction of the transcriptome and have been shown to be essential for many biological processes, including the pathogenesis of the disease. ncRNAs can be utilized as biomarkers due to their important role in the disease's development. The current manuscript describes recent progress on the role of ncRNAs as new AMI biomarkers.

Abstract
Background Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the main clinical cause of death and cardiovascular disease and thus has high rates of morbidity and mortality. The increase in cardiovascular disease with aging is partly the result of vascular endothelial cell senescence and associated vascular dysfunction. This study was performed to identify potential key cellular senescence-related genes (SRGs) as biomarkers for the diagnosis of AMI using bioinformatics. Methods Using the CellAge database, we identified cellular SRGs. GSE66360 and GSE48060 for AMI patients and healthy controls and GSE19322 for mice were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. The GSE66360 dataset was divided into a training set and a validation set. The GSE48060 dataset was used as another validation set. The GSE19322 dataset was used to explore the evolution of the screened diagnostic markers in the dynamic process of AMI. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of AMI were identified from the GSE66360 training set. Differentially expressed senescence-related genes (DESRGs) selected from SRGs and DEGs were analyzed using Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways, and protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks. Hub genes in DESRGs were selected based on degree, and diagnostic genes were further screened by gene expression and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Finally, a miRNA-gene network of diagnostic genes was constructed and targeted drug prediction was performed. Results A total of 520 DEGs were screened from the GSE66360 training set, and 279 SRGs were identified from the CellAge database. The overlapping DEGs and SRGs constituted 14 DESRGs, including 4 senescence suppressor genes and 10 senescence inducible genes. The top 10 hub genes, including FOS, MMP9, CEBPB, CDKN1A, CXCL1, ETS2, BCL6, SGK1, ZFP36, and IGFBP3, were screened. Furthermore, three diagnostic genes were identified: MMP9, ETS2, and BCL6. The ROC analysis showed that the respective area under the curves (AUCs) of MMP9, ETS2, and BCL6 were 0.786, 0.848, and 0.852 in the GSE66360 validation set and 0.708, 0.791, and 0.727 in the GSE48060 dataset. In the GSE19322 dataset, MMP9 (AUC, 0.888) and ETS2 (AUC, 0.929) had very high diagnostic values in the early stage of AMI. Finally, based on these three diagnostic genes, we found that drugs such as acetylcysteine and genistein may be targeted for the treatment of age-related AMI. Conclusion The results of this study suggest that cellular SRGs might play an important role in AMI. MMP9, ETS2, and BCL6 have potential as specific biomarkers for the early diagnosis of AMI.

Abstract
Apoptotic cell death is a deleterious consequence of hypoxia-induced cellular stress. The master hypoxamiR, microRNA-210 (miR-210), is considered the primary driver of the cellular response to hypoxia stress. We have recently demonstrated that miR-210 attenuates hypoxia-induced apoptotic cell death. In this paper, we unveil that the miR-210-induced inhibition of the serine/threonine kinase Glycogen Synthase Kinase 3 beta (GSK3β) in AC-16 cardiomyocytes subjected to hypoxia stress underlies the salutary protective response of miR-210 in mitigating the hypoxia-induced apoptotic cell death. Using transient overexpression vectors to augment miR-210 expression concomitant with the ectopic expression of the constitutive active GSK3β S9A mutant (ca-GSK3β S9A), we exhaustively performed biochemical and molecular assays to determine the status of the hypoxia-induced intrinsic apoptosis cascade. Caspase-3 activity analysis coupled with DNA fragmentation assays cogently demonstrate that the inhibition of GSK3β kinase activity underlies the miR-210-induced attenuation in the hypoxia-driven apoptotic cell death. Further elucidation and delineation of the upstream cellular events unveiled an indispensable role of the inhibition of GSK3β kinase activity in mediating the miR-210-induced mitigation of the hypoxia-driven BAX and BAK insertion into the outer mitochondria membrane (OMM) and the ensuing Cytochrome C release into the cytosol. Our study is the first to unveil that the inhibition of GSK3β kinase activity is indispensable in mediating the miR-210-orchestrated protective cellular response to hypoxia-induced apoptotic cell death.

Abstract
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a severe and even fatal cardiovascular disease. The effect of transcription factors on AMI is intensively explored. Our experiment attempts to probe the role of Sox9 in cardiomyocyte apoptosis after AMI. AMI cell model was established in AC16 cells by hypoxia treatment. Cell viability and apoptosis were assessed. Then, the levels of BAX, Bcl-2, Sox9, miR-223-3p, and MEF2C were detected. The binding relation between Sox9 and miR-223-3p and between miR-223-3p and MEF2C was verified. The expression of miR-223-3p was upregulated using the miR-223-3p mimic, and collaborative experiments were conducted as si-Sox9 or si-MEF2C was transfected into cells to inhibit the expression of Sox9 or MEF2C. Sox9 was highly expressed in cardiomyocyte apoptosis after hypoxia, while Sox9 silencing protected hypoxia-treated cardiomyocytes from apoptosis by enhancing cell viability, quenching apoptosis, and reducing activity of caspase-3 and caspase-9. Essentially, Sox9 bound to the miR-223-3p promoter region to upregulate its expression. miR-223-3p targeted MEF2C transcription. miR-223-3p overexpression and MEF2C silencing could counteract the suppressive role of Sox9 silencing in hypoxia-treated cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Sox9 exacerbated hypoxia-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis by promoting miR-223-3p expression and inhibiting MEF2C transcription.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the major cause of death in the world. Numerous genetic studies involving transcriptomic approaches aimed at the detailed understanding of the disease and the development of new therapeutic strategies have been conducted over recent years. There has been an increase in research on platelets, which are implicated in CVD due to their capacity to release regulatory molecules that affect various pathways. Platelets secrete over 500 various kinds of molecules to plasma including large amounts of non-coding (nc) RNA (miRNA, lncRNA or circRNA). These ncRNA correspond to 98% of transcripts that are not translated into proteins as they are important regulators in physiology and disease. Thus, miRNAs can direct protein complexes to mRNAs through base-pairing interactions, thus causing translation blockage or/and transcript degradation. The lncRNAs act via different mechanisms by binding to transcription factors. Finally, circRNAs act as regulators of miRNAs, interfering with their action. Alteration in the repertoire and/or the amount of the platelet-secreted ncRNA can trigger CVD as well as other diseases. NcRNAs can serve as effective biomarkers for the disease or as therapeutic targets due to their disease involvement. In this review, we will focus on the most important ncRNAs that are secreted by platelets (9 miRNA, 9 lncRNA and 5 circRNA), their association with CVD, and the contribution of these ncRNA to CVD risk to better understand the relation between ncRNA of human platelet and CVD.

MicroRNA-26a/b-5p promotes myocardial infarction-induced cell death by downregulating cytochrome c oxidase 5a. Exp Mol Med 2021; 53:1332-1343.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction (MI) damage induces various types of cell death, and persistent ischemia causes cardiac contractile decline. An effective therapeutic strategy is needed to reduce myocardial cell death and induce cardiac recovery. Therefore, studies on molecular and genetic biomarkers of MI, such as microRNAs (miRs), have recently been increasing and attracting attention due to the ideal characteristics of miRs. The aim of the present study was to discover novel causative factors of MI using multiomics-based functional experiments. Through proteomic, MALDI-TOF-MS, RNA sequencing, and network analyses of myocardial infarcted rat hearts and in vitro functional analyses of myocardial cells, we found that cytochrome c oxidase subunit 5a (Cox5a) expression is noticeably decreased in myocardial infarcted rat hearts and myocardial cells under hypoxic conditions, regulates other identified proteins and is closely related to hypoxia-induced cell death. Moreover, using in silico and in vitro analyses, we found that miR-26a-5p and miR-26b-5p (miR-26a/b-5p) may directly modulate Cox5a, which regulates hypoxia-related cell death. The results of this study elucidate the direct molecular mechanisms linking miR-26a/b-5p and Cox5a in cell death induced by oxygen tension, which may contribute to the identification of new therapeutic targets to modulate cardiac function under physiological and pathological conditions. Monitoring the activity of two microRNAs, small non-coding RNAs, may provide a useful biomarker for heart attack prognosis and inform novel treatments for repairing heart cells. Ki-Chul Hwang and Jung-Won Choi at the Catholic Kwandong University in Gangwon-do, South Korea, and co-workers examined potential causative factors for heart attacks by exploring the activity of microRNAs in rat models and heart cell cultures. They found that levels of a key protein involved in maintaining mitochondrial function and energy metabolism, cytochrome c oxidase subunit 5a (Cox5a), were significantly decreased in heart cells during oxygen deprivation. Further, they identified two microRNAs that acted to inhibit Cox5a after a heart attack. Suppressing these two microRNAs could boost Cox5a activity and limit cell death, although the authors urge caution because microRNAs also play physiological roles in the body.

Abstract
Background Although quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) is a common and sensitive method for miRNAs analysis, it is necessary to optimize conditions and minimize qRT-PCR inhibitors to achieve reliable results. The aim of this study was to minimize interference by contaminants in qRT-PCR, maximize product yields for miRNA analyses, and optimize PCR conditions for the reliable screening of miRNAs in plasma. Methods The annealing temperature was first optimized by assessing amplification efficiencies. The effects of extraction conditions on levels of inhibitors that interfere with PCR were evaluated. The tested extraction conditions were the volume of the upper layer taken, number of chloroform extractions, and the inclusion of ethanol washing, a process that reduces PCR interference during RNA extraction using TRIzol. Results An acceptable amplification efficiency of RT-qPCR was achieved by the optimization of the annealing temperature of the tested miRNAs and by the collection a supernatant volume corresponding to about 50% of the volume of TRIzol with triple chloroform extraction. These optimal extraction and PCR conditions were successfully applied to plasma miRNA screening to detect biomarker candidates for the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction. Conclusion This is the first study to optimize extraction and qRT-PCR conditions, while improving miRNA yields and minimizing the loss of extracted miRNA by evaluations of the amplification efficiency.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence has shown that endothelial progenitor cell-derived exosomes (EPC-Exos) can ameliorate myocardial fibrosis. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of EPC-Exos-derived microRNAs (miRNAs) on myocardial infarction (MI). A miRNA-Seq dataset of miRNAs differentially expressed between EPCs and exosomes was collected. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to validate the miRNA expression indicated by miRNA-Seq. Immunofluorescence, cell proliferation, and angiogenesis assays were employed to investigate the effects of miRNAs on cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) in vitro. Interactions between miRNAs and their respective targets were examined via immunoblotting, qRT-PCR, and luciferase reporter assays. An MI rat model was constructed, and various staining and immunohistochemical assays were performed to explore the mechanisms underlying the miRNA-mediated effects on MI. miR-363-3p and miR-218-5p were enriched in EPC-Exos, and miR-218-5p and miR-363-3p mimic or inhibitor enhanced or suppressed CF proliferation and angiogenesis, respectively. miR-218-5p and miR-363-3p regulated p53 and junction-mediating and regulatory protein (JMY) by binding to the promoter region of p53 and the 3′ untranslated region of JMY. Additionally, treatment of CFs with Exo-miR-218-5p or Exo-miR-363-3p upregulated p53 and downregulated JMY expression, promoted mesenchymal-endothelial transition, and inhibited myocardial fibrosis. Administration of exosomes containing miR-218-5p mimic or miR-363-3p mimic ameliorated left coronary artery ligation-induced MI and restored myocardial tissue integrity in the MI model rats. In summary, these results show that the protective ability of EPC-Exos against MI was mediated by the shuttled miR-218-5p or miR-363-3p via targeting of the p53/JMY signaling pathway.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction (MI) is a devastating disease with high morbidity and mortality caused by the irreversible loss of functional cardiomyocytes and heart failure (HF) due to the restricted blood supply. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been emerging as lead candidates to treat MI and subsequent HF mainly through secreting multitudinous factors of which exosomes act as the most effective constituent to boost the repair of heart function through carrying noncoding RNAs and proteins. Given the advantages of higher stability in the circulation, lower toxicity, and controllable transplantation dosage, exosomes have been described as a wonderful and promising cell-free treatment method in cardiovascular disease. Nowadays, MSC-derived exosomes have been proposed as a promising therapeutic approach to improve cardiac function and reverse heart remodeling. However, exosomes' lack of modification cannot result in desired therapeutic effect. Hence, optimized exosomes can be developed via various engineering methods such as pharmacological compound preconditioned MSCs, genetically modified MSCs, or miRNA-loaded exosomes and peptide tagged exosomes to improve the targeting and therapeutic effects of exosomes. The biological characteristics, therapeutic potential, and optimizing strategy of exosomes will be described in our review.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction (MI) is the serious condition causing lots of death over the world. Myocytes apoptosis, inflammation, and fibrosis are three important factors implicated in pathogenesis of MI. Targeting these three factors has been shown to ameliorate MI and rescue cardiac function. Previous studies have demonstrated that microRNA (miR) 199a-3p protect against MI. In this study, we prepare macrophage membrane coated nanoparticles (MMNPs) containing miR199a-3p. We evaluate the effects of these NPs on apoptosis and cell proliferation in vitro and the effects on inflammation cytokine production, expression of fibrosis related proteins, cardiac injuries, and functions in MI mice. We find that the MMNPs have receptors of interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and can bind to these cytokines. MMNPs prevent hypoxia-induced apoptosis and promote cell proliferation, suppress the inflammation, and inhibit the cardiac fibrosis in MI mice. These results demonstrate that MMNPs ameliorate left ventricular remodeling and cardiac functions, and protect against MI, suggesting MMNPs containing miR199a-3p is a potential therapeutic approach to treat MI.

Nourin-Associated miRNAs: Novel Inflammatory Monitoring Markers for Cyclocreatine Phosphate Therapy in Heart Failure. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22073575. [PMID: 33808213 PMCID: PMC8036979 DOI: 10.3390/ijms22073575] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2021] [Revised: 03/24/2021] [Accepted: 03/26/2021] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Cyclocreatine phosphate (CCrP) is a potent bioenergetic cardioprotective compound known to preserve high levels of cellular adenosine triphosphate during ischemia. Using the standard Isoproterenol (ISO) rat model of heart failure (HF), we recently demonstrated that the administration of CCrP prevented the development of HF by markedly reducing cardiac remodeling (fibrosis and collagen deposition) and maintaining normal ejection fraction and heart weight, as well as physical activity. The novel inflammatory mediator, Nourin is a 3-KDa formyl peptide rapidly released by ischemic myocardium and is associated with post-ischemic cardiac inflammation. We reported that the Nourin-associated miR-137 (marker of cell damage) and miR-106b-5p (marker of inflammation) are significantly upregulated in unstable angina patients and patients with acute myocardial infarction, but not in healthy subjects. Objectives: To test the hypothesis that Nourin-associated miR-137 and miR-106b-5p are upregulated in ISO-induced “HF rats” and that the administration of CCrP prevents myocardial injury (MI) and reduces Nourin gene expression in “non-HF rats”. Methods: 25 male Wistar rats (180–220 g) were used: ISO/saline (n = 6), ISO/CCrP (0.8 g/kg/day) (n = 5), control/saline (n = 5), and control/CCrP (0.8 g/kg/day) (n = 4). In a limited study, CCrP at a lower dose of 0.4 g/kg/day (n = 3) and a higher dose of 1.2 g/kg/day (n = 2) were also tested. The Rats were injected SC with ISO for two consecutive days at doses of 85 and 170 mg/kg/day, respectively, then allowed to survive for an additional two weeks. CCrP and saline were injected IP (1 mL) 24 h and 1 h before first ISO administration, then daily for two weeks. Serum CK-MB (U/L) was measured 24 h after the second ISO injection to confirm myocardial injury. After 14 days, gene expression levels of miR-137 and miR-106b-5p were measured in serum samples using quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR). Results: While high levels of CK-MB were detected after 24 h in the ISO/saline rats indicative of MI, the ISO/CCrP rats showed normal CK-MB levels, supporting prevention of MI by CCrP. After 14 days, gene expression profiles showed significant upregulation of miR-137 and miR-106b-5p by 8.6-fold and 8.7-fold increase, respectively, in the ISO/saline rats, “HF rats,” compared to the control/saline group. On the contrary, CCrP treatment at 0.8 g/kg/day markedly reduced gene expression of miR-137 by 75% and of miR-106b-5p by 44% in the ISO/CCrP rats, “non-HF rats,” compared to the ISO/Saline rats, “HF rats.” Additionally, healthy rats treated with CCrP for 14 days showed no toxicity in heart, liver, and renal function. Conclusions: Results suggest a role of Nourin-associated miR-137 and miR-106b-5p in the pathogenesis of HF and that CCrP treatment prevented ischemic injury in “non-HF rats” and significantly reduced Nourin gene expression levels in a dose–response manner. The Nourin gene-based mRNAs may, therefore, potentially be used as monitoring markers of drug therapy response in HF, and CCrP—as a novel preventive therapy of HF due to ischemia.

Two-step magnetic bead-based (2MBB) techniques for immunocapture of extracellular vesicles and quantification of microRNAs for cardiovascular diseases: A pilot study. PLoS One 2020; 15:e0229610. [PMID: 32101583 PMCID: PMC7043767 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0229610] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/23/2019] [Accepted: 02/10/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have attracted increasing attention because of their potential roles in various biological processes and medical applications. However, isolation of EVs is technically challenging mainly due to their small and heterogeneous size and contaminants that are often co-isolated. We have thus designed a two-step magnetic bead-based (2MBB) method for isolation a subset of EVs as well as their microRNAs from samples of a limited amount. The process involves utilizing magnetic beads coated with capture molecules that recognize EV surface markers, such as CD63. Captured EVs could be eluted from beads or lyzed directly for subsequent analysis. In this study, we used a second set of magnetic beads coated with complementary oligonucleotides to isolate EV-associated microRNAs (EV-miRNAs). The efficiencies of 2MBB processes were assessed by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) with spiked-in exogenous cel-miR-238 molecules. Experimental results demonstrated the high efficiency in EV enrichment (74 ± 7%, n = 4) and miRNA extraction (91 ± 4%, n = 4). Transmission electron micrographs (TEM) and nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA) show that captured EVs enriched by 2MBB method could be released and achieved a higher purity than the differential ultracentrifugation (DUC) method (p < 0.001, n = 3). As a pilot study, EV-miR126-3p and total circulating cell-free miR126-3p (cf-miR126-3p) in eight clinical plasma samples were measured and compared with the level of protein markers. Compared to cf-miR126-3p, a significant increase in correlations between EV-miR126-3p and cardiac troponin I (cTnI) and N-terminal propeptide of B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) was detected. Furthermore, EV-miR126-3p levels in plasma samples from healthy volunteers (n = 18) and high-risk cardiovascular disease (CVD) patients (n = 10) were significantly different (p = 0.006), suggesting EV-miR126 may be a potential biomarker for cardiovascular diseases. 2MBB technique is easy, versatile, and provides an efficient means for enriching EVs and EV-associated nucleic acid molecules.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) is the most severe type of coronary atherosclerotic heart diseases. MiRNA is a class of endogenous noncoding small molecule RNA, which plays an important regulatory role in the development of some diseases. METHODS We examined the miRNA expression profiles in 16 patients with AMI compared with 6 non-AMI controls using RNA sequencing. RESULTS Compared with the miRNA expression profiles of non-AMI controls, a total of 181 differentially expressed miRNAs were discriminated in AMI patients, of which 96 upregulated miRNAs and 85 downregulated miRNAs. The top ten upregulated miRNAs were as follows: miR-449a-5p, miR-126-5p, miR-93-5p, miR-199a-3p, miR-4454, miR-6880-3p, miR-3135a, miR-548ad-5p, miR-4508, and miR-556-5p; while the top ten downregulated were as follows: miR-6805-5p, miR-1228-5p, miR-939-5p, miR-615-3p, miR-6780a-5p, miR-6857-3p, miR-5088-55p, miR-7155-3p, miR-184, and miR-4525. And the qRT-PCR results of differentially expressed miRNAs showed the same result as high-throughput sequencing data. For these 181 differentially expressed miRNAs, 19 841 target genes were predicted by GO analysis. The enrichment analysis revealed 2061 involved in biological processes, 353 in molecular function and 303 in cellular components. To identify biological pathways in AMI as compared to non-AMI, the target genes of differentially expressed miRNAs were mapped to the classical signal transduction pathway in KEGG, indicating that 214 classes were enriched. ROC analysis showed that the circulating miRNAs had the important value for AMI diagnosis and supported the previous conclusions that circulating miRNAs were effective to diagnose the AMI as a novel biomarker. CONCLUSIONS Our findings require further research to confirm. It may provide a meaningful reference for the diagnosis and treatment of AMI.

Int J Med Sci 2019; 16:1171-1179. [PMID: 31523180 PMCID: PMC6743283 DOI: 10.7150/ijms.35037] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2019] [Accepted: 07/17/2019] [Indexed: 01/20/2023] Open
Abstract
AIM To investigate the association between plasma S100A1 level and ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and potential significance of S100A1 in post-infarction cardiac function. METHODS We examined the plasma S100A1 level in 207 STEMI patients (STEMI group) and 217 clinically healthy subjects for routine physical examination without a history of coronary artery disease (Control group). Baseline characteristics and concentrations of relevant biomarkers were compared. The relationship between S100A1 and other plasma biomarkers was detected using correlation analysis. The predictive role of S100A1 on occurrence of STEMI was then assessed using multivariate ordinal regression model analysis after adjusting for other covariates. RESULTS The plasma S100A1 level was found to be significantly higher (P<0.001) in STEMI group (3197.7±1576.0 pg/mL) than in Control (1423.5±1315.5 pg/mL) group. Furthermore, the correlation analysis demonstrated plasma S100A1 level was significantly associated correlated with hypersensitive cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) (r = 0.32; P < 0.001), creatine kinase MB (CK-MB) (r = 0.42, P < 0.001), left ventricular eject fraction (LVEF) (r = -0.12, P = 0.01), N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) (r = 0.61; P < 0.001) and hypersensitive C reactive protein (hs-CRP) (r = 0.38; P < 0.001). Moreover, the enrolled subjects who with a S100A1 concentration ≤ 1965.9 pg/mL presented significantly better cardiac function than the rest population. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that S100A1 was an independent predictor for STEMI patients (OR: 0.671, 95% CI 0.500-0.891, P<0.001). In addition, higher S100A1 concentration (> 1965.9 pg/mL) significantly increased the risk of STEMI as compared with the lower level (OR: 6.925; 95% CI: 4.15-11.375; P<0.001). CONCLUSION These results indicated that the elevated plasma S100A1 level is an important predictor of STEMI in combination with several biomarkers and also potentially reflects the cardiac function following the acute coronary ischemia.
