Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the importance of plasma MicroRNAs in early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI).Methods 24 patients with AMI as the test group and 20healthy volunteers as the control group were enrolled in this study.Plasma levels of microRNA-1,microRNA-133a,microRNA-208a and microRNA-499 were detected by quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) at 3 h,6 h,12 h,24 h,48 h,72 h after the onset of AMI.Results Plasma microRNA-1 level was greatly increased and reached the peak at 3 h after AMI,then was decreased gradually to normal level at 72 h after AMI.Plasma microRNA-133a level was significantly elevated at 6 h after AMI,reached peak at 12 h after AMI,then was decreased to normal level at 48 h after AMI.Plasma microRNA-1 and microRNA-133a levels were correlated with cTnI expression.The peak time of microRNA-1 was earlier than that of cTnI,while the peak time of microRNA-133a was the same as that of cTnI.Conclusions Increased circulating microRNA-1 and microRNA-133a may serve as potential and novel biomarkers for early diagnosis of AMI.
