OBJECTIVES: To identify the specific microRNAs (miRNAs) in IgG4-related dacryoadenitis and sialadenitis (IgG4-DS) and predict the targeted genes.

METHODS: miRNAs in the serum of nine patients with IgG4-DS, three patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome, and three healthy controls were analysed using the human miRNA chip, and miRNAs that exhibited significant fluctuation in expression in IgG4-DS patients were extracted. The respective target genes were predicted using an existing database, and expression of the target genes was evaluated in actual submandibular gland tissues affected by IgG4-DS.

RESULTS: Serum miR-125a-3p and miR-125b-1-3p levels were elevated in IgG4-DS. Six candidate target genes (glypican 4, forkhead box C1, protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 3, hydroxycarboxylic acid receptor 1, major facilitator superfamily domain containing 11, and tumour-associated calcium signal transducer 2) were downregulated in the affected submandibular gland tissue.

CONCLUSION: Overexpression of miR-125a-3p and miR-125b-1-3p is a hallmark of IgG4-DS. These miRNAs appear to be involved in the pathogenesis of IgG4-DS.
