ABSTRACT
Introduction:
microRNAs (miRNAs) are highly conserved, noncoding RNA molecules that regulate gene expression on the post-transcriptional level. Some evidence indicates that microRNAs dysfunction plays a crucial role in human disease development. The role of microRNAs in cardiac growth, hypertrophy, heart failure, cardiovascular complications in diabetes and many other hearth conditions are demonstrated. In this study we aimed to evaluate the expression of six microRNAs (mir-100, mir-126, mir-127, mir-133a, mir-133b and mir-145) that have been shown to overexpress in aortic and carotid plaques.Methods:
Thirty Coronary Artery Disease patients who underwent elective coronary artery bypass graft surgery were enrolled in the study. The expression patterns of six miRNAs (mir-100, mir-126, mir-127, mir-133a, mir-133b, and mir-145) were examined in 30 patients of whom we obtained aorta and saphenous vein samples.Results:
In three miRNAs, mir-100, mir-127 and mir-133b, we did not obtain expression data from real-time experiments. We found that the expression level of mir-126, mir-133a and mir145 were lower in aorta in comparison with saphenous vein. Mir-126 was highly expressed in saphenous vein samples (13.8±1.1) when compared with aorta samples (20.2±1.1), although mir133a was highly expressed in saphenous vein samples (16.1±0.5) when compared with the aorta (17.9±1.5). Expression of mir-145 saphenous vein samples was also dramatically higher than aorta (7.2±0.5 versus 10.8±0.6) that was statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion:
Understanding the role of miRNAs in cardiovascular physiology and diseases might suggest miRNA- based therapeutic methods in the management of coronary artery disease.
