Downregulation of serum miR-30c-5p serves as a biomarker to predict disease onset and short-term prognosis in acute coronary syndrome patients
摘要
Timely intervention for Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) could effectively reduce the mortality rate of ACS patients. This study aimed to investigate the clinical significance of miR-30c-5p for ACS and to provide a convenient biomarker for diagnosing of ACS.
MethodsBaseline information was collected from a total of 173 subjects (98 ACS subjects and 65 healthy subjects). The miR-30c-5p expression was evaluated by the Polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The predictive value of miR-30c-5p for ACS was assessed by Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve and multivariate logistic regression analysis. The relationship between miR-30c-5p expression and ACS severity was assessed by correlation analysis. Furthermore, the prognostic value of miR-30c-5p on Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events (MACE) occurrence was assessed by the Kaplan-Meier (K-M) curve to evaluate its prognostic significance.
ResultsDownregulation of miR-30c-5p was observed in ACS subjects and its diagnostic value on ACS was confirmed by the ROC curve. MiR-30c-5p could also discriminate acute myocardial infarction (AMI) from unstable angina pectoris (UAP) subjects in ACS. The expression of miR-30c-5p was negatively correlated with the cardiac troponin I (cTnI) levels and the Gensini score. A lower miR-30c-5p expression was observed in ACS subjects who developed MACE (P = 0.020), and the K-M curve further confirmed the close correlation between miR-30c-5p expression and MACE occurrence in ACS. MiR-30c-5p was also identified as an independent prognostic factor for MACE in ACS.
ConclusionsSerum miR-30c-5p expression was correlated with the severity of ACS, and downregulated miR-30c-5p expression showed a diagnostic and prognostic value in ACS.
