MicroRNA serum profiles and chronic graft-versus-host disease.

ABSTRACT: Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) is the most common long-term complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). During the last decade, the interest of micro RNAs (miRNAs) in the pathophysiological process of cGVHD has increased. The objectives of this study were to investigate a wide range of serum miRNAs in allografted patients and identify associations between miRNAs and cGVHD. The study included 79 allotransplanted adults, where serum samples were obtained 1 year after the allo-HSCT, and miRNA profiling analysis in serum was performed. Fifty of the 79 patients (63%) had signs of cGVHD at the 1-year post-allo-HSCT control. miRNA sequencing analysis revealed 1380 different miRNAs detected for at least 1 patient, whereas 233 miRNAs (17%) were detecte
