Popis: The pathophysiology of chronic kidney disease–mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) is complex and multifactorial. Recent studies have identified a link between microRNAs (miRNAs) and bone loss. In this study, we investigated the expression of miRNAs in CKD-MBD. In this case-control study, we included thirty patients with CKD-MBD (cases) and 30 age-and gender-matched healthy individuals (controls). Bone mineral density (BMD) and trabecular bone score (TBS) evaluation was performed with dual X-ray absorptiometry. The selected panel of miRNAs included: hsa-miRNA-21-5p; hsa-miRNA-23a-3p; hsa-miRNA-24-2-5p; hsa-miRNA-26a-5p; hsa-miRNA-29a-3; hsa-miRNA-124-3p; hsa-miRNA-2861. The majority of cases had low BMD values. The relative expression of miRNA-21-5p was 15 times lower [fold regulation (FR): −14.7 ± 8.1, p = 0.034), miRNA-124-3p, 6 times lower (FR: −5.9 ± 4, p = 0.005), and miRNA-23a-3p, 4 times lower (FR: −3.8 ± 2.0, p = 0.036) in cases compared to controls. MiRNA-23a-3p was significantly and inversely correlated with TBS, adjusted for calcium metabolism and BMD values (beta = −0.221, p = 0.003, 95% CI −0.360, −0,081) in cases. In a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis, expression of miRNA-124-3p demonstrated 78% sensitivity and 83% specificity in identifying CKD patents with osteoporosis. Serum expression of miRNAs related to osteoblasts (miRNA-23a-3p) and osteoclasts (miRNA-21-5p, miRNA-124-3p) is significantly altered in patients with CKD-MBD. © 2020 by the authors.
