Abstract Background MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play an important role in various diseases, including HCV infection, the aim of the current study was to evaluate the potential use of serum miRNAs as biomarkers for diagnosis, prognosis, and prediction of responses to direct acting antivirals (sofosbuvir + daclatasvir + ribavirin) in HCV-4 patients. Methods The serum expression profiles of four liver-associated miRNAs (miRNA‐122, 155, 196 and 29) were assessed in 160 HCV-4 patients and 50 healthy controls using real-time PCR prior to therapy. Results miR-122 and miR-155 showed upregulation in HCV-4 patients compared to healthy controls while miR-196 and miR-29 showed downregulation in HCV-4 patients. ROC curve analyses revealed that the four-studied miRNAs could be valuable biomarkers for predicting response to DAAs with AUC 0.973 for miR-122, 0.878 for miR-155, 0.808 for miR-29 and 0.874 for miR-196 respectively. Univariate logistic regression analysis revealed that miR-196 level is positive predictor for SVR, whereas miR-122,155 levels are negative predictors of response. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that miR-196 is the most significant in predicting response to treatment (p value = 0.011). Conclusion To the best of our knowledge, the current study provided the first clinical evidence of the potential use of circulating miRNAs (miR; 122, 155, 196 and 29) as biomarkers of CHC in HCV-4 patients receiving the new DAA regimen (SOF/DAV + RIB), which is a strong motivator for further studies. |
