Hemolysis has been known to affect the measurement of circulating biomarkers. In this study, clinically applicable procedures for microRNA (miRNA) detection in serum samples of acute myocardial infarction patients were established. The 89 samples from patients admitted to the coronary care unit were collected. These samples obtained from heparin-treated and untreated patients were subjected to heparinase digestion prior to miRNA measurements by multiplex RT-qPCR. The good reproducibility of miRNA detection after heparinase digestion (average R = 0.97) indicated that this method can be used routinely for samples regardless of heparin medication. Additionally, the degree of hemolysis in these samples was highly related to the hemoglobin absorbance at 414 nm. Based on the hemoglobin absorbance, five hemolysis-associated miRNAs were identified in our data normalized with respect to both the spike-in control and the RNA amount in a given sample. Using these calibration procedures, miRNAs can be accurately quantified and identified for clinical samples. Graphical Abstract The practical procedures for miRNA detection in serum samples from the coronary care unit were established, and five hemolysis-associated miRNAs were accurately clarified through serial normalization.

Aims: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) provides offspring with a hyper-metabolic intrauterine microenvironment. In this study, we aimed to identify key differential microRNAs in GDM-derived exosomes and explore the potential mechanisms of abnormal embryonic development of islets in offspring.
Main Methods: Exosomes were extracted from umbilical vein blood of GDM and non-GDM (NGDM) parturients for microRNA sequencing.

Background And Aims: Familial Hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a monogenic disease that leads to early-onset atherosclerosis. Causative mutations in FH-related genes are found in 60-80 % of patients, while epigenetic factors may contribute to mutation-negative cases. This study analyzed miRNAs and proteins from plasma-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) of FH patients to explore their contribution in FH diagnosis.

Although electrochemical biosensors have been developed to detect multiple microRNAs (miRNAs) simultaneously through loading different capture probes, high surface-induced perturbation and competition among probes have reduced the detection sensitivity. To address these challenges, a trefoil DNA capture probe (TDCP) was designed for microRNA-21 (miR-21) and microRNA-16 (miR-16) detection simultaneously. The TDCP exhibits a stable structure, low spatial resistance, and integral rigidity, which decreases high surface-induced perturbations and competition to improve the accessibility of the target miRNA.
