Left ventricular assist device support in heart failure patients leads to changes in mRNA and protein expression in the myocardium.
MicroRNA's are important regulators of various cellular processes, so changes in their expression were tested by Q-PCR methods.
LVAD support (independently of the duration) leads to a decrease of the expression of miR-1, miR-133a and miR-133b in DCM patients but to an increase in expression in IHD patients. The expression of miR's pre- and post-LVAD in heart failure patients was low compared to the level of miR's in control myocardial tissue.
Alterations in miRs expression might also be important during repair processes in IHD patients.
心力衰竭患者接受左心室辅助装置支持会导致心肌中mRNA和蛋白质表达发生变化。
微小RNA是各种细胞过程的重要调节因子,因此通过定量聚合酶链反应方法检测其表达变化。
左心室辅助装置支持(与持续时间无关)导致扩张型心肌病患者中miR-1、miR-133a和miR-133b表达降低,但在缺血性心脏病患者中表达增加。与对照心肌组织中微小RNA的水平相比,心力衰竭患者左心室辅助装置植入前后微小RNA的表达较低。
微小RNA表达的改变在缺血性心脏病患者的修复过程中可能也很重要。
