Table 2 Summary of changes of exosomal microRNAs in Alzheimer’s disease patients
miRNA | Alteration | Model | Type tissue | Significance | Ref. |
miR-320a, miR-328-3p, miR-204-5p | Decrease | Human patients | CSF | Potential targets for miR-328-3p involve AMPK signaling pathways associated with amyloid and tau metabolism in AD. Reliable biomarkers of AD | Tan et al[73] |
miR-455-3p | Increase | Human patients | CSF | A potential biomarker for AD | Kumar and Reddy[74] |
miR-9, miR-21, miR29-b, miR-122, miR-132 | Decrease | Human patients | Plasma | MiR-122 is related to alpha-tocopherol and may be a new targeted therapy | Boccardi et al[75] |
miR-125b, miR-451a | Increase | Human patients | Peripheral blood | It plays a role through the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. Possible biomarker for AD | Duan et al[76] |
miR-342-5p | Increase | Human patients | Peripheral blood | Degradation of BACE1 mRNA in cells by targeting the 3’UTR sequence of BACE1 ameliorates β-Amyloid formation | Dong et al[77] |
miR-16-5p, miR-25-3p, miR-92a-3p, miR-451a | Decrease | Human patients | Plasma | May have been involved in the early development of AD | Visconte et al[78] |
miR-373, miR-204 | Decrease | Human patients | Peripheral blood | Potential biomarkers for AD | Taşdelen et al[79] |
miR-30b-5p, miR-22-3p, miR-378a-3p | Decrease | Human patients | Peripheral blood | Potential biomarkers for the diagnosis of AD | Dong et al[80] |
miR-483-5p, miR-502-5p | Decrease | Human patients | Plasma | Possible biomarker for AD | Liu et al[81] |
miR-29c-3p | Increase | Human patients | Plasma | Possible biomarker for AD | Li et al[82] |
miR-23a | Increase | Human patients | Plasma | Possible biomarker for AD | Barbagallo et al[83] |
miR-126-3p, miR-142-3p, miR-146a-5p, miR-223-3p | Decrease | Human patients | CSF and peripheral blood | As a biomarker reflecting AD severity | Aharon et al[84] |
miR-384 | Increase | Human patients | CSF and plasma | MiR-384 downregulates the expression and activity of ACE-1 to alleviate AD symptoms | Li et al[85] |
miR-485-3p | Increase | Human patients | Saliva | Possible biomarker and treatment for AD | Ryu et al[86] |
miR-486-3P | Increase | Human patients | Brain tissue and peripheral blood | Possible biomarker for AD | Cheng et al[87] |
miR-185-5p | Human patients | Blood sample | Education decreased AD expression, depression increased AD expression, and participated in the production and accumulation of Aβ in patients, and enhanced depression, which participated in the production and accumulation of Aβ | Wang et al[88] |
