Background: It has been reported that sacubitril/valsartan can improve cardiac function in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients complicated by heart failure (HF). However, a number of patients cannot be treated successfully; this phenomenon is called sacubitril/valsartan resistance (SVR), and the mechanisms remain unclear. Methods:In our present research, the expression profiles of tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) in SVR along with NSVR patients were determined by RNA sequencing. Through bioinformatics, qRT–PCR, and cell-based experiments, we identified SVR-related tsRNAs and confirmed their diagnostic value, predicted their targeted genes, and explored the enriched signal pathways as well as regulatory roles of tsRNAs in SVR. Results:Our research indicated that 36 tsRNAs were upregulated and that 21 tsRNAs were downregulated in SVR. Among these tsRNAs, the expression of tRF-59:76-Tyr-GTA-2-M3 and tRF-60:76-Val-AAC-1-M5 was upregulated, while the expression of tRF-1:29-Gly-GCC-1 was downregulated in the group of SVR. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis demonstrated that these three tsRNAs were potential biomarkers of the therapeutic heterogeneity of sacubitril/valsartan. Moreover, tRF-60:76-Val-AAC-1-M5 might target Tnfrsf10b and Bcl2l1 to influence the observed therapeutic heterogeneity through the lipid and atherosclerosis signaling pathways. Conclusions:Hence, tsRNA might play a vital role in SVR. These discoveries provide new insights for the mechanistic investigation of responsiveness to sacubitril/valsartan. Overall design: the expression profiles of tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) in SVR along with NSVR patients were determined by RNA sequencing. Through bioinformatics, qRT–PCR, and cell-based experiments, we identified SVR-related tsRNAs and confirmed their diagnostic value, predicted their targeted genes, and explored the enriched signal pathways as well as regulatory roles of tsRNAs in SVR.
