Circulating microRNAs may have diagnostic potential in acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Previous studies, however, were based on low patient numbers and could not assess the relation of microRNAs to clinical characteristics and their potential prognostic value. We thus assessed the diagnostic and prognostic value of cardiomyocyte-enriched microRNAs in the context of clinical variables and a sensitive myonecrosis biomarker in a larger ACS cohort. MiR-1, miR-133a, miR-133b, miR-208a, miR-208b, and miR-499 concentrations were measured by quantitative reverse transcription PCR in plasma samples obtained on admission from 444 patients with ACS. High-sensitivity troponin T (hsTnT) was measured by immunoassay. Patients were followed for 6 months regarding all-cause mortality. In a multiple linear regression analysis that included clinical variables and hsTnT, miR-1, miR-133a, miR-133b, and miR-208b were independently associated with hsTnT levels (all P
