BACKGROUND: Organ dysfunction, especially liver injury, caused by dengue virus (DENV) infection has been associated with fatal cases in dengue patients around the world. However, the pathophysiological mechanisms of liver involvement in dengue remain unclear. There is accumulating evidence that miRNAs are playing an important role in regulating viral pathogenesis, and it can help in diagnostic and anti-viral therapies development.
METHODS: We collected liver tissues of DENV-infected for small RNA sequencing to identify significantly different express miRNAs during dengue virus infection, and the identified target genes of these miRNAs were annotated by biological function and pathway enrichment.
RESULTS: 31 significantly altered miRNAs were identified, including 16 up-regulated and 15 down-regulated miRNAs. By performing a series of miRNA prediction and signaling pathway enrichment analyses, the down-regulated miRNAs of mmu-miR-484, mmu-miR-1247-5p and mmu-miR-6538 were identified to be the crucial miRNAs. Further analysis revealed that the inflammation and immune responses involving Hippo, PI3K-Akt, MAPK, Wnt, mTOR, TGF-beta, Tight junction, and Platelet activation were modulated collectively by these three key miRNAs during DENV infection. These pathways are considered to be closely associated with the pathogenic mechanism and treatment strategy of dengue patients.
CONCLUSION: The miRNAs identified by sequencing, especially miR-484 may be the potential therapeutic targets for liver involvement in dengue patients which involves the regulation of vascular permeability and expression of inflammatory cytokines.
