Circulating microRNA signatures that predict liver fibrosis progression in patients with HIV-1/HCV co-infections.

Results: A total of 1065 different miRNAs were identified. After a mean of 10.3 years, 26 of the 46 patients developed liver fibrosis (stage F2-4) and 20 remained without signs of liver fibrosis (stage F0-1). We identified a signature of seven miRNAs: 100-5p, 192-5p, 99a-5p, 122-5p, 125b-2-3p, 1246, and 194-5p, which were highly correlated with progression to liver fibrosis. These seven miRNAs detected liver fibrosis progression with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.910-0.806. Two miRNAs, 100-5p and 192-5p, which displayed the best AUC values, yielded a sensitivity of 88% and a specificity of 85% for detecting liver fibrosis progression.
