Cardiovascular disease (CVD) correlates with inflammation and a reduction in circulating endothelial progenitor cells (cEPCs). Recently, CVD was shown to be the main cause of mortality in individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1DM). In animals, miR-342 was shown to exert an anti-inflammatory effect in CVD. Hypothesis: miR-342-3p/-5p are downregulated in subclinical CVD (T1DM), whereas inflammatory cytokines are upregulated. We studied miR -342 -3p/5p in plasma/peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in 29 T1DM and 20 controls (HC). Vascular health was measured by fibronectin adhesion assay (FAA), cEPCs (CD45dimCD34+133+ cells) and by assessing inflammation and tissue inhibition of metalloproteases (TIMP-1). In T1DM IL-7, IL-8, TNFα and VEGF-C were increased in plasma. MiR-342-3p/-5p were downregulated in PBMCs in T1DM, but not in plasma. PANX2, chemokine receptors CXCR1/2 mRNAs, were increased in PBMCs in T1DM. MiR-342-3p was negatively correlated with TIMP-1, IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α, HbA1c and CXCR2, whilst miR-342-5p was negatively correlated with TIMP-1, IL-6, IL-8 and HbA1c. There was a positive correlation among miR-342-3p, FAA and cEPCs, and between miR-342-5p and cEPCs. ROC curve analyses showed significant downregulation of miR-342-3p/-5p at HbA1c > 46.45 mmol/mol, indicating their potential as biomarkers for subclinical CVD. Our findings validated animal studies and confirmed the proangiogenic properties of miR-342-3p/-5p. MiR-342-3p/-5p-based intervention or monitoring may prove to be beneficial in managing CVD.
