Serum‑derived exosomal hsa‑let‑7b‑5p as a biomarker for predicting the severity of coronary stenosis in patients with coronary heart disease and hyperglycemia.

ABSTRACT: Exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) are potential biomarkers for the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular disease, and hyperglycemia serves an important role in the development of atherosclerosis. The present study aimed to investigate the expression profile of serum‑derived exosomal miRNAs in coronary heart disease (CHD) with hyperglycemia, and to identify effective biomarkers for predicting coronary artery lesions. Serum samples were collected from eight patients with CHD and hyperglycemia and eight patients with CHD and normoglycemia, exosomes were isolated and differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMIs) were filtered using a human miRNA microarray. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analyses were performed using standard enrichment computational
