Kurzfassung:
A high proportion of house dust mite (HDM)-allergic asthmatics suffer from both an early asthmatic reaction (EAR) and a late asthmatic reaction (LAR) which follows it. In these patients, allergic inflammation is more relevant. MiRNAs have been shown to play an important role in the regulation of asthma’s pathology. The aim of this study was to analyze the miRNA profile in patients with mild asthma and an HDM allergy after bronchial allergen provocation (BAP). Seventeen patients with EAR/no LAR and 17 patients with EAR plus LAR, determined by a significant fall in FEV1 after BAP, were differentially analyzed. As expected, patients with EAR plus LAR showed a more pronounced allergic inflammation and FEV1 delta drop after 24 h. NGS-miRNA analysis identified the down-regulation of miR-15a-5p, miR-15b-5p, and miR-374a-5p after BAP with the highest significance in patients with EAR plus LAR, which were negatively correlated with eNO and the maximum decrease in FEV1. These miRNAs have shared targets like CCND1, VEGFA, and GSK3B, which are known to be involved in airway remodeling, basement membrane thickening, and Extracellular Matrix deposition. NGS-profiling identified miRNAs involved in the inflammatory response after BAP with HDM extract, which might be useful to predict a LAR.
