Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important regulators of gene expression, which may have roles in 2nd hyperparathryoidism
of ESRD patients. The molecular factors that control parathyroid hyperplasia and adenoma, are poorly
understood. We studied the miRNA profile between normal parathyroid group, and 2nd hyperparathyroidism in ESRD
patients group to find out the difference of miRNA expression.
Methods: Parathyroid tissue samples including clinical data were obtained for 7 patients (2 normal parathyroid gland
by thyroid cancer patients, 5 2nd hyperparathyroidism ESRD patients). Total RNA was extracted from fresh frozen
tissue. RNA was reverse transcribed and preamplified using Megaplex premier pools, and was run by TaqMan array
MicroRNA Card A,B. Data analysis was performed using DataAssist soft ware v 3.01(applied Biosystems)
Results: miR-10a,15b,18a,103,145,148b,185,193a,301,425,532,532-3p,1274A,1275,1291 were up-regulated to 2 fold
change, and miR-34a,139-5p were down regulated in ESRD patients. Clustering analysis was done.
Conclusions: Due to diversity and complexity of miRNAs in ESRD patients, there was a limitation of study in CKD
patients. TaqMan low density array may have a merit by screening and semi-quantitive method for study. Various
miRNAs may influence on development or aggravation in 2nd hyperparathyroism in ESRD patients. So further study
may be needed to understand mechanisms of up- or down- regulated miRNAs in patients with 2nd hyperparathyroidism. |
