Objective To investigate the effect of radon on the expressions of miR-16, miR-106b, miR-449a, let-7g, miR-21, miR-221 and miR-34a in peripheral blood plasma of miners.Methods A total of 46 randomly selected miners worked underground(the underground group)and 38 miners worked aboveground (the control group). MiRNA levels in the underground and control groups were detected by qRT-PCR and their relationship with cumulative effective dose was further analyzed.Results The levels of miR-106b, miR-21, miR-221 in plasma of the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group(Z=-2.32, -2.47, -2.79, P < 0.05), the corresponding Fc values were 1.61, 1.75, 1.30, respectively. The levels of miR-16, miR-449a, let-7g and miR-34a were slightly higher than those in the control group (P>0.05). After controlling of confounding factors such as age, BMI and smoking, the alteration of miR-16, miR-106b, let-7g, miR-21 and miR-221 in plasma of the underground group were positively correlated with the cumulative effective dose(t=2.50, 3.31, 2.60, 2.95, 3.25, P < 0.05). No significant difference was observed in the plasma levels of miR-449a and miR-34a between the two groups (P>0.05).Conclusions miR-106b, miR-21 and miR-221 could be used as potential biomarkers of radon exposure. |
