摘要：

Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a sporadic neurodegenerative disease that is pathologically characterized by -synuclein positive glial cytoplasmic inclusions in oligodendrocytes. The clinical diagnosis of MSA is often challenging as there are no established biomarkers and diagnoses are now based on clinical findings alone. At present, the etiology and pathogenesis of MSA are unclear. It has been reported that dysregulation of microRNA (miRNA/miR) serves an important role in neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. The miRNA profile of patients with MSA remains to be established. The present study investigated the serum miRNA expression level of 10 patients with MSA, using microarray chips including 668 miRNAs. It was identified that 50 miRNAs were significantly upregulated and 17 miRNAs were significantly downregulated in the serum of the patients with MSA. The most upregulated miRNA was miR-16, which may induce the accumulation of -synuclein. The target genes of some miRNAs upregulated in MSA (including miR-17, 20a, 24, 25, 30d and 451) were associated with autophagy-associated molecules. The present study concluded that the expression pattern of miRNAs may be a clinical biomarker for MSA and targeting these miRNAs may provide a novel treatment for MSA.
