Correlation between serum miR-122 and myocardial damage and ventricular function in patients with essential hypertension

BACKGROUND: Myocardial damage and decreased ventricular function are risk factors leading to a bad prognosis in patients with essential hypertension (EH). MicroRNAs play important roles in myocardial function impairment in patients with hypertension. The purpose of our research was to investigate th...

description BACKGROUND: Myocardial damage and decreased ventricular function are risk factors leading to a bad prognosis in patients with essential hypertension (EH). MicroRNAs play important roles in myocardial function impairment in patients with hypertension. The purpose of our research was to investigate the correlation between serum miR-122 and myocardial damage and ventricular functions in EH patients. METHODS: The clinic data of EH patients (group A, n=60) and healthy individuals (group B, n=60) from December 2016 to December 2019 in our hospital were collected and analyzed. Serum miR-122, myocardial damage markers [B-type brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), homocysteine (Hcy), cardiac troponin T (cTnT) and creatine kinase MB isoenzyme (CK-MB)] and cardiac function indicators [ejection fraction (EF), left ventricular septal thickness (IVST), left ventricular isovolumic relaxation time (IVRT), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD), left ventricular posterior wall thickness (LVPWT), and left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESD)] were assessed in both groups. The correlation between serum miR-122 and myocardial damage markers and ventricular function indicators was analyzed. RESULTS: (I) The mean serum miR-122 concentration in group A and group B was 6.86±1.23 and 3.36±1.87 µmol/L, respectively. The serum miR-122 concentration in group A was evidently increased compared with that in group B. (II) The levels of BNP, Hcy, cTnT, and CK-MB in the peripheral blood in group A were evidently increased compared with those in group B (P<0.05). (III) EF and IVRT were evidently decreased in group A compared with that in group B (P<0.05). (IV) Serum miR-122 concentration was positively correlated with the myocardial damage markers BNP, Hcy, cTnT and CK-MB, and serum miR-122 concentration was negatively correlated with the ventricular function indicators EF and IVRT but not significantly correlated with other ventricular function indicators (IVST, LVEDD, LVPWT and LVESD). CONCLUSIONS: The serum miR-122 concentration in EH patients was higher than that in healthy individuals, and miR-122 concentration was positively correlated with myocardial damage markers. Serum miR-122 level was negatively correlated with the ventricular function indicators EF and IVRT but was not significantly correlated with other ventricular function indicators (IVST, LVEDD, LVPWT, and LVESD).
