Abstract

The present invention relates to single polynucleotides or sets of polynucleotides for detecting single miRNAs or sets of miRNAs for diagnosing and/or prognosing of an acute coronary syndrome in a blood sample from a human. Further, the present invention relates to means for diagnosing and/or prognosing of an acute coronary syndrome comprising said polynucleotides or sets of polynucleotides. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a method for diagnosing and/or prognosing of an acute coronary syndrome based on the determination of expression profiles of single miRNAs or sets of miRNAs representative for an acute coronary syndrome compared to a reference. In addition, the present invention relates to a kit for diagnosing and/or prognosing of an acute coronary syndrome comprising means for determining expression profiles of single miRNAs or sets of miRNAs representative for an acute coronary syndrome and at least one reference.

Claims (336)

1. A method for detecting a decreased level of at least one miRNA in a human patient having, or suspected of having, an acute coronary syndrome comprising the steps of:

(i) providing a blood cell sample from a human, wherein the blood cell sample is a blood cellular fraction consisting of a mixture of erythrocytes, leukocytes and thrombocytes, and

(ii) detecting whether there is a decreased level of the at least one miRNA in the blood cell sample as compared to a control level of a healthy human subject, or a human subject not having or not being suspected of having an acute coronary syndrome, by contacting the sample with at least one probe for at least one down-regulated miRNA and detecting binding between the probe and the down-regulated miRNA;

wherein the nucleotide sequence of said at least one down-regulated miRNA is miR-455-3p having SEQ ID NO: 16, or sequence having at least 95% sequence identity thereto.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein at least one additional nucleotide sequence of at least one additional down-regulated miRNA is detected, wherein the at least one additional down-regulated miRNA is selected from:

miR-193a-3p having SEQ ID NO: 255;

miR-636 having SEQ ID NO: 174;

miR-767-5p having SEQ ID NO: 19;

miR663b having SEQ ID NO:257; and,

miRNA sequences having at least 95% sequence identity thereto.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises detecting whether there is an increased level of at least one up-regulated miRNA in the blood cell sample as compared to a control level by contacting the sample with at least one probe for at least one up-regulated miRNA and detecting binding between the probe and the up-regulated miRNA, wherein the at least one up-regulated miRNA is selected from:

miR-142-5p having SEQ ID NO: 162,

miR-23b* having SEQ ID NO:68,

miR-1250 having SEQ ID NO:70,

miR-920 having SEQ ID NO:137,

miR-877* having SEQ ID NO:268,

miR-1303 having SEQ ID NO:84, and,

miRNA sequences having at least 95% sequence identity thereto.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein step (ii) is determined using reverse-transcribed miRNA.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein step (ii) is determined using a quantitative real-time PCR machine by reverse-transcribing the total RNA into cDNA, and amplifying the cDNA and thereby quantifying said miRNA(s).

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the acute coronary syndrome is acute myocardial infarction (AMI).

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising detecting a deregulated level of at least one additional miRNA, wherein the deregulation comprises an up-regulation or a down-regulation of said at least one additional miRNA, and

wherein the at least one additional miRNAs are selected from the following sets:
