Correlation of miR-24-3p and miR-595 expression with CCL3, CCL4, IL1-beta, TNFalphaIP3, and NF-kappaBIalpha genes in PBMCs of patients with coronary artery disease

ABSTRACT: Inflammation has been well recognized to play an important role in developing coronary artery disease (CAD). By regulating essential genes in this pathway post-transcriptionally, MicroRNAs (miRNAs) may help or hinder the development of atherosclerotic lesions. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of miR-24-3p, miR-595, CCL3, CCL4, IL-1β, TNFαIP3, and NF-κBIα in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of CAD and control groups and to examine whether any correlation exists between the expression of miRs and genes in CAD group. A total of 168 subjects (84 CAD subjects and 84 control subjects) were examined in this research. Expression levels of miR-24-3p, miR-595, CCL3, CCL4, IL-1β, TNFαIP3, and NF-κBIα in PBMCs were measured using the real-time PCR technique. A comp
