چکیده

Kawasaki disease (KD) has complexly clinical features and laboratory parameters and there is no definitive biomarker for this disease and the therapy of KD also is complex and uncertain. In this study, 102 KD patients and 80 healthy controls were enrolled in this study and the serum microRNAs were detected by qRT-PCR. The results showed that, compared with KD patients with a good response to high-dose intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) therapy, serum miR-200c and miR-371-5p were significantly higher in KD patients with no response to IVIG therapy; compared with KD patients not needing plasma exchange, these two microRNAs were also significantly higher in KD patients needing plasma exchange. In addition, combination of serum miR-200c and miR-371-5p reflected obvious separation between KD patients and healthy controls or between KD patients with no response to IVIG therapy and KD patients with good response to IVIG therapy or KD patients needing plasma exchange and KD patients not needing plasma exchange. Finally, both serum miR-200c and miR-371-5p were also significantly lower in KD under different kinds of therapy. Therefore, serum miR-200c and miR-371-5p have ability as the useful diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets in Kawasaki disease.

Introdution: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the central nervous system. Nevertheless, the causal etiology of MS is not fully revealed and there are some neurological disorders that might have similar phenotypic manifestations with MS. Therefore, reliable and available diagnostic method is very necessary for differential diagnosis. The use of new biomarkers for fas...

Sets of serum exosomal microRNAs as candidate diagnostic biomarkers for Kawasaki disease

Although Kawasaki disease is the main cause of acquired heart disease in children, no diagnostic biomarkers are available. We aimed to identify candidate biomarkers for diagnosing Kawasaki disease using serum exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs). Using frozen serum samples from a biobank, high-throughput microarray technologies, two-stage real-time quantitative PCR, and a self-referencing strategy for d...

Exosome-encapsulated microRNAs as circulating biomarkers for colorectal cancer

Currently available studies have suggested that a number of exosome-encapsulated microRNAs (miRNAs) are recognized as stable biomarkers for cancers. However, little is known about the effect of exosomal miRNAs on colorectal cancer (CRC). The aim of study is to identify specific miRNAs in serum exosomes, which may serve as potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets fo...
