Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the expression and clinical relevance of MicroRNA(miRNA)-21 and miRNA-22 in urine exosomes of patients diagnosed with contrast-induced nephropathy(CIN).Methods:A total of 258 patients who underwent coronary intervention at our hospital's Department of Cardiology between July 2020 and July 2023 were retrospectively selected.These patients were divided into a CIN group( n=68)and a non-CIN group( n=190)based on the occurrence of contrast-induced nephropathy(CIN)post-coronary intervention.Clinical data from both groups were collected and compared, and levels of miRNA-21 and miRNA-22 in urinary exosomes were detected using polymerase chain reaction.Binary logistic regression was then utilized to analyze the risk factors associated with CIN.Furthermore, the diagnostic accuracy of urine exosomal miRNA-21 and miRNA-22 in detecting CIN was assessed through a receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve. Results:Various risk factors were identified for contrast-induced nephropathy(CIN)in the study, including age(≥70 years old, 48.5%), diabetes(52.9%), myocardial infarction(11.8%), hypotension(17.7%), reduced glomerular filtration rate(GFR)[≤60 ml·min -1·1.73(m -1) 2, 32.4%], decreased left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)(≤0.45, 16.2%), high contrast agent dosage(>200 ml, 17.7%), elevated serum creatinine(Scr)levels 24 hours post-coronary intervention in the CIN group[(76.5±4.5)μmol/L], as well as higher levels of urine exosomal miRNA-21(0.9±0.2)and miRNA-22(5.9±1.1)between CIN group and non-CIN group[32.6%, 32.1%, 2.6%, 5.8%, 18.9%, 5.8%, 5.3%, (68.4±3.3)mol/L, (0.8±0.2), (3.1±0.90]( t=5.441, 9.266, 8.730, 8.671, 5.164, 6.927, 9.846, 8.707, 3.040, 11.233, all P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that age ≥70 years( OR: 3.611, 95% CI: 1.235-10.561), diabetes( OR: 5.886, 95% CI: 1.601-21.641), myocardial infarction( OR: 3.600, 95% CI: 1.204-10.763), hypertension( OR: 6.672, 95% CI: 1.761-25.281), GFR≤60 ml·min -1·1.73(m -1) 2( OR: 3.413, 95% CI: 1.086-10.732), LVEF≤0.45( OR: 5.008, 95% CI: 1.380-18.178), dosage of contrast agent >200mL( OR: 3.389, 95% CI: 1.016-11.299), elevated Scr 24 hours after operation( OR: 0.597, 95% CI: 0.478-0.746)and high expression of miRNA-21( OR: 0.014, 95% CI: 0.001-0.292)and miRNA-22( OR: 0.017, 95% CI: 0.001-0.294)in urine exosomes were the risk factors for CIN(all P<0.05).The AUC of urinary exocrine miRNA-21 and miRNA-22 in the diagnosis of CIN were 0.694 and 0.950, respectively, and the AUC of combined diagnosis was 0.967. Conclusions:The expression levels of miRNA-21 and miRNA-22 in urinary exosomes of patients with contrast-induced nephropathy(CIN)are significantly elevated, indicating their potential clinical relevance in predicting CIN.Simultaneous assessment of both miRNAs can enhance the precision of CIN identification.
