OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to identify heart failure (HF)-specific circulating micro-RNAs (miRNA), and examine whether the selected miRNAs correlate with myocardial fibrosis and are reflective of the incidence of adverse cardiovascular events in patients with stage C or D HF. METHODS: Circulating miRNAs which were expressed in end-stage HF patients and matched healthy controls were detected by microarray analysis and validated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was performed to determine whether the selected circulating miRNAs could be prognostic factors in HF patients. RESULTS: In a cohort of 7 healthy controls and 9 patients with stage C or D HF, 7 miRNAs were differentially expressed. These miRNAs were further investigated in a second cohort of 80 patients with stage C or D HF and 30 healthy controls. Only miR-197-5P correlated with fibrosis as seen in cardiac magnetic resonance imaging in patients under the age of 50 years with stage C or D HF (r = 0.42, p = 0.008). Multivariate analyses revealed that miR-197-5P was also a risk factor for composite endpoint events in patients under the age of 50 years with stage C or D HF. CONCLUSION: miR-197-5P is a circulation miRNA that correlates with MF and adverse cardiac events in HF patients under the age of 50 years.
