Further Evidence That MicroRNAs Can Play a Role in Hemophilia A Disease Manifestation: F8 Gene Downregulation by miR-19b-3p and miR-186-5p.

ABSTRACT: Hemophilia A (HA) is a F8 gene mutational disorder resulting in deficiency or dysfunctional FVIII protein. However, surprisingly, in few cases, HA is manifested even without mutations in F8. To understand this anomaly, we recently sequenced microRNAs (miRNAs) of two patients with mild and moderate HA with no F8 gene mutations and selected two highly expressing miRNAs, miR-374b-5p and miR-30c-5p, from the pool to explain the FVIII deficiency that could be mediated by miRNA-based F8/FVIII suppression. In this report, an established orthogonal in vivo RNA-affinity purification approach was utilized to directly identify a group of F8-interacting miRNAs and we tested them for F8/FVIII suppression. From this pool, two miRNAs, miR-19b-3p and miR-186-5p, were found to be upregulated in a severe HA patient with a mutation in the F8 coding sequence and two HA patients without mutations in the F8 coding sequence were selected to demonstrate their role in F8 gene expression regulation in mammalian cells. Overall, these results provide further evidence for the hypothesis that by targeting the 3'UTR of F8, miRNAs can modulate FVIII protein levels. This mechanism could either be the primary cause of HA in patients who lack F8 mutations or control the severity of the disease in patients with F8 mutations.

Project description:Background Circulating microRNAs are emerging biomarkers for heart failure (HF). Our study aimed to assess the prognostic value of microRNA signature that is differentially expressed in patients with acute HF. Methods and Results Our study comprised a screening cohort of 15 patients with AHF and 5 controls, a PCR-discovery cohort of 50 patients with AHF and 26 controls and a validation cohort of 564 patients with AHF from registered study DRAGON-HF (Diagnostic, Risk Stratification and Prognostic Value of Novel Biomarkers in Patients With Heart Failure). Through screening by RNA-sequencing and verification by reverse-transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction, 9 differentially expressed microRNAs were verified (miR-939-5p, miR-1908-5p, miR-7706, miR-101-3p, miR-144-3p, miR-4732-3p, miR-3615, miR-484 and miR-19b-3p). Among them, miR-19b-3p was identified as the microRNA signature with the highest fold-change of 8.4 and the strongest prognostic potential (area under curve with 95% CI, 0.791, 0.654-0.927). To further validate its prognostic value, in the validation cohort, the baseline level of miR-19b-3p was measured. During a follow-up period of 19.1 (17.7, 20.7) months, primary end point comprising of all-cause mortality or readmission due to HF occurred in 48.9% patients, while patients in the highest quartile of miR-19b-3p level presented the worst survival (Log-rank P<0.001). Multivariate Cox model showed that the level of miR-19b-3p could independently predict the occurrence of primary end point (adjusted hazard ratio,1.39; 95% CI, 1.18-1.64). In addition, miR-19b-3p positively correlated with soluble suppression of tumorigenicity 2 and echocardiographic indexes of left ventricular hypertrophy. Conclusions Circulating miR-19b-3p could be a valuable prognostic biomarker for AHF. In addition, a high level of circulating miR-19b-3p might indicate ventricular hypertrophy in AHF subjects.
