    Abstract
  •   Objective  To investigate new biomarkers for hepatic alveolar echinococcosis by screening out differentially expressed microRNAs (miRNAs) in the tissues and plasma of patients with hepatic alveolar echinococcosis, since hepatic alveolar echinococcosis is caused by the infection of multilocular hydatid cyst.  Methods  Patients with hepatic alveolar echinococcosis diagnosed in Qinghai University Affilrated Hospital from June 2016 to May 2018 were in cluded. Two marginal tissue samples and three adjacent normal tissue samples were collected from patients with hepatic alveolar echinococcosis, and plasma samples were collected from three patients with hepatic alveolar echinococcosis and three healthy controls. Agilent Human miRNA microarray was used to obtain the miRNA expression profile in tissue and plasma, and differentially expressed miRNAs were screened out based on fold change (FC > 1.2) and P value (P < 0.05). Plasma miRNAs and tissue miRNAs associated with liver diseases were selected based on target gene prediction of differentially expressed miRNAs and literature reports, and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was used for validation. The t-test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups. A spearman analysis was used to investigate correlcction.  Results  There was a significant difference in microRNA expression profile between the patients with hepatic alveolar echinococcosis and the health individuals, and qRT-PCR found that three miRNAs (hsa-miR-4644, hsa-miR-136-5p, hsa-miR-483-3p) were significantly differentially expressed in patients with hepatic alveolar echinococcosis (P < 0.05), among which hsa-miR-4644 and hsa-miR-483-3p were significantly upregulated (P < 0.05) and hsa-miR- 136-5p was significantly downregulated (P < 0.05) in patients with hepatic alveolar echinococcosis. Target gene prediction was performed for miRNAs based on TargetScan, PITA, and microRNAorg databases, and the intersection of the target genes predicted by these three databases showed that 137 genes were targeted with miRNAs. The differentially expressed miRNA hsa-miR-483-3p was involved in the target regulation of the genes (IL17A, IL5, CD40LG, TAP2, and TNF) associated with immune response and liver diseases. Gene ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genome analyses showed that the target genes of hsa-miR-483-3p played an important role in the primary immunodeficiency signaling pathway, the IL-17 signaling pathway, and the TNF signaling pathway.  Conclusion  Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis has a unique microRNA expression profile, among which hsa-miR-483-3p can be used as a new biomarker for hepatic alveolar echinococcosis, and the target genes regulated by this miRNA are mainly involved in the primary immunodeficiency signaling pathway, the IL-17 signaling pathway, and the TNF signaling pathway. However, further studies are needed to verify the regulatory relationship between these miRNAs and hepatic alveolar echinococcosis.
