摘要：Abstract Dengue virus causes dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) and has been associated to fatal cases worldwide. The liver is one of the most important target tissues in severe cases, due to its intense viral replication and metabolic role. microRNAs role during infection is crucial to understand the regulatory mechanisms of DENV infection and can help in diagnostic and anti-viral therapies development. We sequenced the miRNome of six fatal cases and compared to five controls, to characterize the human microRNAs expression profile in the liver tissue during DHF. Eight microRNAs were differentially expressed, including miR-126-5p, a regulatory molecule of endothelial cells, miR-122-5p, a liver specific homeostasis regulator, and miR-146a-5p, an interferon-regulator. Enrichment analysis with predicted target genes of microRNAs revealed regulatory pathways of apoptosis, involving MAPK, RAS, CDK and FAS. Immune response pathways were related to NF- kB, CC and CX families, IL and TLR. This is the first description of the human microRNA and isomicroRNA profile in liver tissues from DHF cases. The results demonstrated the association of miR-126-5p, miR-122-5p and miR-146a-5p with DHF liver pathogenesis, involving endothelial repair and vascular permeability regulation, control of homeostasis and expression of inflammatory cytokines.
