MicroRNA Sequencing Analysis in Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Depression: Anti-Oxidant and MAOA-Inhibiting Effects of miR-15b-5p and miR-92b-3p through Targeting PTGS1-NF-κB-SP1 Signaling.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to identify novel microRNAs related to obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) characterized by intermittent hypoxia with re-oxygenation (IHR) injury. Illumina MiSeq was used to identify OSA-associated microRNAs, which were validated in an independent cohort. The interaction between candidate microRNA and target genes was detected in the human THP-1, HUVEC, and SH-SY5Y cell lines. Next-generation sequencing analysis identified 22 differentially expressed miRs (12 up-regulated and 10 down-regulated) in OSA patients. Enriched predicted target pathways included senescence, adherens junction, and AGE-RAGE/TNF-α/HIF-1α signaling. In the validation cohort, miR-92b-3p and miR-15b-5p gene expressions were decreased in OSA patients, and negatively correlated with an apnea hypopnea i
