Clinical relevance of miR-423-5p levels in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to examine changes in miRNAs expression profile of COPD patients. METHODS: Thirty-six COPD patients as well as thirty-three healthy volunteers were recruited. Total RNAs were collected from the plasma of each participant. The differentially expressed miRNAs in COPD were s...

Sumario:OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to examine changes in miRNAs expression profile of COPD patients. METHODS: Thirty-six COPD patients as well as thirty-three healthy volunteers were recruited. Total RNAs were collected from the plasma of each participant. The differentially expressed miRNAs in COPD were screened from the GEO database. RT-qPCR was carried out to detect miRNA expression. RESULTS: In total, 9 out of 55 miRNAs were expressed differentially in COPD patients. Confirmed by RT-qPCR validation, 6 miRNAs increased while 3 miRNAs decreased. Further analysis of miR-423-5p, which has not been reported in COPD, showed that AUC for the diagnosis of COPD was 0.9651, and miR-423-5p levels was inversely correlated with the duration of smoking. CONCLUSION: The present study demonstrates that miR-423-5p is a potential marker for identifying COPD patients.
