BACKGROUND/AIM: Nine genetic loci have been associated with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) susceptibility, including DAB2IP. This gene is playing a role in apoptosis, cell proliferation and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in cancers. This study aimed to elucidate the differential expression levels of DAB2IP in AAA tissues and investigate whether mir-363-3p and EZH2 can be considered as potential mediators of its expression.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: 18 AAA samples and 15 non-aneurysmatic controls were collected. Relative mRNA expression levels of DAB2IP, EZH2 and mir-363-3p were measured using qPCR.
RESULTS: DAB2IP was significant up-regulated (~2.29 fold) in AAA tissues, while EZH2 and mir-363-3p were down-regulated (3.28 and 3.62-fold, respectively). A limited negative correlation was found between the DAB2IP and EZH2 expression and between DAB2IP and the mir-363-3p.
CONCLUSION: An increased expression of DAB2IP in AAA tissues was shown. We suggest 2 potential mediators of DAB2IP expression in abdominal aortic aneurysm, EZH2 and mir-363-3p.
