To explore circulating miRNA-302 family members for acute heart failure (AHF) diagnosis.
Three groups of subjects, in other words, AHF patients, AHF free patients and healthy controls were recruited. Circulating levels of miR-302 family members were measured and analyzed for AHF diagnosis.
Plasma miR-302s except miR-302f were significantly elevated in AHF patients. MiR-302b-3p had the highest area under curve value of 0.87. There were strong positive correlations between miR-302s and NT-proBNP levels. MiR-302b-3p levels were significantly higher in left ventricular ejection fraction ≤45% and New York Heart Association class IV patients compared with left ventricular ejection fraction >45% and New York Heart Association class II patients, respectively.
Levels of circulating miR-302s, miR-302b-3p in particular, could be potentially applied for AHF diagnosis and the differentiation of disease severity.
探讨循环 miRNA-302 家族成员在急性心力衰竭(AHF)诊断中的作用。
招募三组受试者,即 AHF 患者、AHF 无患者和健康对照者。检测并分析循环 miRNA-302 家族成员水平以进行 AHF 诊断。
与健康对照组相比,AHF 患者的血浆 miR-302s(miR-302f 除外)水平显著升高。miR-302b-3p 的曲线下面积值最高,为 0.87。miR-302s 与 NT-proBNP 水平之间存在强正相关。与左心室射血分数(LVEF)>45%和纽约心脏协会(NYHA)心功能分级 II 级患者相比,LVEF≤45%和 NYHA 心功能分级 IV 级患者的 miR-302b-3p 水平显著更高。
循环 miR-302s 的水平,特别是 miR-302b-3p,可能可用于 AHF 的诊断和疾病严重程度的区分。
