ABSTRACT
Altered miRNA (miR) expression occurs in various diseases. However, the therapeutic effect of miRNAs in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is unclear. Genome-wide analyses of miRNA expression and DNA methylation status were conducted to identify crucial miRNAs in end-stage ADPKD. miR-192 and -194 levels were down-regulated with hypermethylation at these loci, mainly in the intermediate and late stages, not in the early stage, of cystogenesis, suggesting their potential impact on cyst expansion. Cyst expansion has been strongly associated with endothelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Zinc finger E-box-binding homeobox-2 and cadherin-2, which are involved in EMT, were directly regulated by miR-192 and -194. The therapeutic effect of miR-192 and -194 in vivo and in vitro were assessed. Restoring these miRs by injection of precursors influenced the reduced size of cysts in Pkd1 conditional knockout mice. miR-192 and -194 may act as potential therapeutic targets to control the expansion and progression of cysts in patients with ADPKD.-Kim, D.
