摘要

Objective

The mechanisms underlying the progression of acute pancreatitis (AP) remain incompletely elucidated. This study investigates the expression pattern, diagnostic and prognostic value of miR-1-3p in AP patients, and further elucidates its role in pancreatic acinar cell injury and the underlying molecular mechanisms.

Methods

miR-1-3p levels were measured via qPCR and correlated with clinical indicators. ROC analysis evaluated diagnostic efficacy, and logistic regression assessed prognostic relevance. A Caerulein-induced injury model was established in MPC-83 cells. Post-transfection with a miR-1-3p inhibitor, cell viability (CCK-8), inflammatory factors (ELISA), and oxidative stress (WST-8/TBA) were evaluated. Bioinformatics-predicted target genes were validated through dual-luciferase reporter and RIP assays, with rescue experiments confirming the targeting relationship.

Results

miR-1-3p was significantly upregulated in SAP patients and effectively distinguished healthy individuals (AUC = 0.880) and disease severity (AUC = 0.878). Its levels positively correlated with CRP, APACHE II, and BUN (p < 0.0001). High miR-1-3p expression independently predicted poor prognosis (OR = 9.54, p = 0.023). Inhibition of miR-1-3p alleviated Caerulein-induced cellular injury in vitro. GNPTAB was identified as a direct target, showing downregulation and negative correlation with miR-1-3p in patients. Rescue experiments confirmed that GNPTAB downregulation partially reversed the protective effects of miR-1-3p inhibition.

Conclusions

miR-1-3p, upregulated in SAP, is a potential diagnostic biomarker and predictor of poor prognosis. It exacerbates pancreatic acinar cell injury by targeting GNPTAB, contributing to inflammation, oxidative stress, and AP progression.
