Abstract: MiRNAs have been identified as participants in leukemogenesis by controlling several cellular functions, such as differentiation, proliferation, and apoptosis. Their role in myelodysplastic neoplasms (MDS) pathogenesis is researched due to implementations in early identification, classification, and therapeutical options. IPSS-R, being the most widely used MDS classification, underestimates early biological events that can alter the disease's prognosis. The purpose of this study is to determine whether miRNA levels are aligned to MDS risk stratification groups and can therefore be used as diagnostic biomarkers. To evaluate miRNAs as possible biomarkers, we measured the levels of miR-181a-2-3p, miR-124-3p, miR-550a-3p, miR-155-5p, miR-151a-3p, and miR-125b-5p by a quantitative real-time PCR in bone marrow samples of 41 MDS patients. In conclusion, in myeloid malignancies, genomic characteristics may provide a wider apprehension of its clinical course and prognosis. MiRNAs constitute a possible diagnostic biomarker and therapeutic target, allowing intermediate-risk patients that express high levels of specific miRNAs to be re-classified and receive more advanced therapeutic agents. In our study, an association between high levels of miRNAs and worsening outcomes is established, supporting the need for further incorporation of molecular data into currently used classification systems.
