Background: Our aim was to investigate the expression of miRNAs, C-reactive protein as a blood inflammation marker, and alanine aminotransferase as a tissue inflammation marker in recovered and not-recovered COVID-19 patients.
Methods: This cross-sectional project was done in three medical center of Iran from December to March, 2021. Generally, a total of 20 confirmed cases of COVID-19 with grade III and 20 healthy subjects were enrolled in the study. Then, the neuroinflammatory expression of miRNAs (miR-199, miR-203, and miR-181), C-reactive protein, and alanine aminotransferase were investigated during hospitalization from week 0 to week 2.
Results: In not-recovered COVID-19 subjects, the expression of miR-199, miR-203, and miR-181 were decreased and the levels of C-reactive protein and alanine aminotransferase were increased during hospitalization. Conversely, in recovered COVID-19 subjects, the relative expression of miR-199, miR-203, and miR-181 were increased and the levels of C-reactive protein and alanine aminotransferase were decreased during hospitalization.
Conclusions: The expression pattern of neuroinflammatory miRNAs is depends on whether the COVID-19 patient is recovering or deteriorating. Their expression is down-regulated in not-recovered COVID-19 patients and up-regulated in recovered COVID-19 patients. |
