Abstract
Aim of the work.: The purpose of this study is to compare the expression levels of miR-21-3p and miR-155-5p in leukocytes from preeclampsia (PE) patients to healthy controls.
Patients and methods: The miR-21-3p and miR-155-5p that have been linked to PE were our choices. In comparison to 50 healthy controls, the expression levels of miR-21-3p and miR-155-5p were examined in PE (n = 50). Quantitative PCR in real-time is used for this. Relative quantification values were produced by comparing the target miR's relative expression in the samples to that of the calibrator in the lab.
Results: There was a significant decrease in the expression levels of miR-21-3p and miR-155-5p in PE group. The mean expression levels of miR-21-3p and miR-155-5p in PE were 1.12 ± 0.6 and 0.82 ±0.5, respectively compared to 1.52 ± 0.8 and 1.44 ± 0.9 in normal individuals.
Conclusion: Our findings indicated that decreased miR-21-3p and miR-155-5p expression levels are associated with PE. A significant part of the pathophysiology of PE is played by miRNAs. Findings differentially expressed miRNAs in mother blood presents a chance to identify a simple-to-use PE biomarker.
