Abstract
BACKGROUND Decreased proliferation and invasion of trophoblast were proven to be involved in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia (PE). However, the regulatory network has not been clarified yet. This study aimed to explore the role of miR-101-3p in the progression of PE. METHODS miR-101-3p expression in placentas of pregnant women with or without PE was analyzed by real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). Trophoblastic HTR-8/SVneo and HPT-8 cell lines were cultured and underwent hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) treatment to mimic PE in vitro. Cell proliferation and invasion were analyzed in gain-of and loss-of-function assays. Finally, we undertook in vivo studies to explore effects of miR-101-3p in the PE model. RESULTS Compared to placentas from patients without PE, miR-101-3p expressed significantly higher in placentas from PE patients, and its level was positively correlated with the severity of patients. In vitro studies found that overexpression of miR-101-3p significantly suppressed cell proliferation and invasion, while knockdown of miR-101-3p reversed the impacts of H/R treatment. Further research showed that the expression of WD repeat domain 5 (WDR5) was significantly lower in placentas from patients with PE, and its level was negatively associated with the severity of patients. In vitro and in vivo studies confirmed that miR-101-3p promoted PE progression through the regulation of WD WDR5 expression. CONCLUSION Increased expression of miR-101-3p in placenta contributes to the development of PE by suppressing WDR5-mediated proliferation and invasion of trophoblast.

Abstract
Introduction: Preeclampsia (PE) is a pregnancy-associated, multi-organ, life-threatening disease that appears after the 20th week of gestation. The aim of this study was to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine whether women with PE have disrupted miRNA expression compared to women who do not have PE. Methods: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies that reported miRNAs expression levels in placenta or peripheral blood of pregnant women with vs. without PE. Studies published before October 29, 2021 were identified through PubMed, EMBASE and Web of Science. Two reviewers used predefined forms and protocols to evaluate independently the eligibility of studies based on titles and abstracts and to perform full-text screening, data abstraction and quality assessment. Standardized mean difference (SMD) was used as a measure of effect size. Results: 229 publications were included in the systematic review and 53 in the meta-analysis. The expression levels in placenta were significantly higher in women with PE compared to women without PE for miRNA-16 (SMD = 1.51,95%CI = 0.55-2.46), miRNA-20b (SMD = 0.89, 95%CI = 0.33-1.45), miRNA-23a (SMD = 2.02, 95%CI = 1.25-2.78), miRNA-29b (SMD = 1.37, 95%CI = 0.36-2.37), miRNA-155 (SMD = 2.99, 95%CI = 0.83-5.14) and miRNA-210 (SMD = 1.63, 95%CI = 0.69-2.58), and significantly lower for miRNA-376c (SMD = -4.86, 95%CI = -9.51 to -0.20). An increased level of miRNK-155 expression was found in peripheral blood of women with PE (SMD = 2.06, 95%CI = 0.35-3.76), while the expression level of miRNA-16 was significantly lower in peripheral blood of PE women (SMD = -0.47, 95%CI = -0.91 to -0.03). The functional roles of the presented miRNAs include control of trophoblast proliferation, migration, invasion, apoptosis, differentiation, cellular metabolism and angiogenesis. Conclusion: miRNAs play an important role in the pathophysiology of PE. The identification of differentially expressed miRNAs in maternal blood creates an opportunity to define an easily accessible biomarker of PE.
