Circulating microRNA signature as novel biomarkers for osteoarthritis development


ABSTRACT: Introduction: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) in circulation have emerged as promising biomarkers. In this study we aimed to identify a circulating miRNA signature for osteoarthritis (OA) patients. Methods: Serum samples were collected from 12 primary OA patients and 12 healthy individuals and were screened using the Agilent Human miRNA Microarray. Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves were constructed to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the deregulated miRNAs. Expression levels of selected miRNAs were validated by quantitative Real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) in all serum samples and in articular cartilage samples from OA patients (n=12) and healthy individuals (n=7). Bioinformatics analysis was used to investigate the involved pathways and target genes of the above miRNAs. Results: We identified 279 differentially expressed miRNAs in the serum of OA patients compared to healthy controls. 205 (73.5%) were up-regulated and 74 (26.5%) down-regulated. ROC analysis revealed that 77 miRNAs had area under the curve (AUC)> 0.8 and p<0.05. Bioinformatics analysis in 7 out of the 77 selected miRNAs (hsa-miR-33b-3p, hsa-miR-4284, hsa-miR-671-3p, hsa-miR-663a, hsa-miR-140-3p, hsa-miR-150-5p and hsa-miR-1233-3p) revealed that their target genes were involved in multiple signaling pathways, among which FOXO, mTOR, pI3K/akt, lipid metabolism and TGF-β. A serum miRNA signature including three down-regulated miRNAs (hsa-miR-33b-3p, hsa-miR-671-3p and hsa-miR-140-3p) were also verified by qRT-PCR in OA patients. Furthermore, we found that hsa-miR-140-3p, hsa-miR-671-3p and potentially hsa-miR-33b-3p expression levels were consistently down-regulated in articular cartilage of OA patients compared to healthy individuals. Conclusions: A global miRNA serum signature was revealed in OA patients. We identified a three- miRNA signature in peripheral serum which could be potential osteoarthritis biomarkers.
