Abstract:
:The aim of this study is to discuss the hypothesis that expression of plasma atherosclerosis-associated microRNAs (miRNAs) in hyperhomocysteinemia (Hhcy) patients could predict the presence of atherosclerosis from different channels. Six plasma miRNAs (miR-145, miR-155, miR-222, miR-133, miR-217, and miR-30) selected for our study have been confirmed as critical gene regulators involved in atherosclerosis and can be steadily determined in plasma. Expression of the above six plasma circulating miRNAs revealed significant upregulation of two miRNAs (miR-133 and miR-217) and downregulation of three miRNAs (miR-145, miR-155, and miR-222). Six candidate miRNAs showed a significant correlation with homocysteine (Hcy) or lipid parameters. The results of this study indicated that miR-217 was further significantly upregulated in Hhcy + ATH groups than in normal control, Hhcy-, and atherosclerosis-alone (ATH) groups and it showed a significant negative correlation with Hcy and triglycerides. More specifically, miR-217 showed the most specific expression patterns in all patients with atherosclerosis (ATH and Hhcy + ATH groups), which may have been a diagnostic value for Hhcy complicated with atherosclerosis, and predicted the progress of atherosclerosis in Hhcy patients effectively.
