Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death globally, among which acute myocardial infarction (AMI) frequently occurs in the heart and proceeds from myocardium ischemia and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-induced cell death. Numerous studies on miRNAs indicated their potential as diagnostic biomarkers and treatment targets for heart diseases. Our study investigated the role of miR-17-5p and its regulatory mechanisms during AMI. Echocardiography, MTT, flow cytometry assay, evaluation of caspase-3 and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity were conducted to assess cell viability, apoptosis in an MI/R mice model, and an H2O2-induced H9c2 hypoxia cell model, respectively. The expression levels of ER stress response-related biomarkers were detected using qRT-PCR, IHC, and western blotting assays. The binding site of miR-17-5p on Tsg101 mRNA was determined by bioinformatic prediction and luciferase reporter assay. The expression levels of miR-17-5p were notably elevated in MI/R mice and hypoxia cell models, accompanied by enhanced cell apoptosis. Inhibition of miR-17-5p led to decreased apoptosis related to ER stress response in the hypoxia model, which could be counteracted by knockdown of Tsg101 (tumor susceptibility gene 101). Transfection with miR-17-5p mimics downregulated the expression of Tsg101 in H9c2 cells. Luciferase assay demonstrated the binding between miR-17-5p and Tsg101. Moreover, 4-PBA, the inhibitor of the ER stress response, abolished shTsg101 elevated apoptosis in hypoxic H9c2 cells. Our findings investigated the pro-apoptotic role of miR-17-5p during MI/R, disclosed the specific mechanism of miR-17-5p/Tsg101 regulatory axis in ER stress-induced myocardium injury and cardiomyocytes apoptosis, and presented a promising diagnostic biomarker and potential target for therapy of AMI.  相似文献

Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) belong to bone marrow-derived myeloid progenitor cells that have strong proliferative ability. Dysregulation of miRNAs after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) can result in EPCs injury, thus we hypothesize that correction of miRNA expression may contribute to the tolerance of EPCs against oxidative stress. The peripheral blood of healthy volunteers and patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) was clinically collected. EPCs derived from peripheral blood were transfected by miR-324-5p mimic and simultaneously handled with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to inducing EPCs injury. At 24 hrs after the H2O2 treatment, cell viability, the uptake capacity on DiI-Ac-LDL, and carrying ability on FITC-UEA-l and multiplication capacity were analyzed. The mechanism process was carefully researched by valued the characteristics of the mitochondrion morphology, membrane potential, ATP levels, and the expressing of apoptosis pathways. Small RNA sequencing indicated that the expression level of miR-324-5p in peripheral blood EPCs of patients with STEMI was significantly lower compared with the healthy volunteers. The Mtfr1 has been confirmed as a targeted gene of miR-324-5p through miRTarBase software and western blot. The miR-324-5p mimic units could be contributed for the improvement of viability, the uptake capacity on DiI-Ac-LDL and carrying ability on FITC-UEA-l and multiplication capacity on oxidative stress-injured EPCs. miR-324-5p could suppress mitochondrial fragmentation, promote membrane potential, and ATP levels, as well as protect against oxidative stress-induced EPCs apoptosis. Our results suggested that miR-324-5p protects against oxidative stress-induced EPCs injury by regulating Mtfr1.  相似文献

Cerebrovascular diseases have a high mortality and disability rate in developed countries. Endothelial cell injury is the main cause of atherosclerosis and cerebrovascular disease. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) has been proved to participate in the progression of endothelial cell. Our study aimed to develop the function of lncRNA opa-interacting protein 5 antisense RNA 1 (OIP5-AS1) in oxidative low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL)-induced endothelial cell injury. The expression of OIP5-AS1, miR-98-5p and High-mobility group protein box-1 (HMGB1) was detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and flow cytometry were used to detect the cell proliferation and apoptosis. The levels of cyclinD1, Bcl-2 Associated X Protein (Bax), Cleaved-caspase-3, Toll like receptors 4 (TLR4), phosphorylation of p65 (p-P65), phosphorylation of nuclear factor-kappa B inhibitor α (p-IκB-α) and HMGB1 were measured by Western blot. The concentrations of Interleukin-6 (IL-6), Interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were detected by Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The production of Reactive oxygen species (ROS), Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) was detected by the corresponding kit. The targets of OIP5-AS and miR-98-5p were predicted by starBase 3.0 and TargetScan and confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter assay and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay. The expression of OIP5-AS1 was upregulated, while miR-98-5p was downregulated in ox-LDL-induced human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Functionally, knockdown of OIP5-AS1 induced proliferation and inhibited apoptosis, inflammatory injury and oxidative stress injury in ox-LDL-induced HUVEC cells. Interestingly, miR-98-5p was a target of OIP5-AS1 and miR-98-5p inhibition abolished the effects of OIP5-AS1 downregulation on ox-LDL-induced HUVECs injury. More importantly, miR-98-5p directly targeted HMGB1, and OIP5-AS1 regulated the expression of HMGB1 by sponging miR-98-5p. Finally, OIP5-AS1 regulated the TLR4/nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) signaling pathway through miR-98-5p/HMGB1 axis. LncRNA OIP5-AS1 accelerates ox-LDL-induced endothelial cell injury through regulating HMGB1 mediated by miR-98-5p via the TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Oxidative stress-induced myocardial apoptosis and necrosis are involved in ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. This study was performed to investigate microRNA (miR)-210’s role in oxidative stress-related myocardial damage. The expression of miR-210 was upregulated in myocardial tissues of I/R rats, while that of Bcl-2 adenovirus E1B 19kDa-interacting protein 3 (BNIP3) was downregulated. To simulate in vivo oxidative stress, H9c2 cells were treated with H2O2 for 48 h. MiR-210 level was increased upon H2O2 stimulation, peaked at 8 h, and then decreased. An opposite expression pattern of BNIP3 was observed. BNIP3 was demonstrated as a direct target of miR-210 via luciferase reporter assay. H2O2-induced cell apoptosis was attenuated by miR-210 mimics, whereas aggravated by miR-210 inhibitor. MiR-210 knockdown-induced cell apoptosis in presence of H2O2 was attenuated by BNIP3 siRNA. Our work demonstrates that miR-210 plays a protective role in H2O2-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis at least by regulating the pro-apoptotic BNIP3.  相似文献

The imbalance between excess reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and insufficient antioxidant defenses contribute to a range of neurodegenerative diseases. High ROS levels damage cellular macromolecules such as DNA, proteins and lipids, leading to neuron vulnerability and eventual death. However, the underlying molecular mechanism of the ROS regulation is not fully elucidated. Recently, an increasing number of studies suggest that microRNAs (miRNAs) emerge as the targets in regulating oxidative stress. We recently reported the neuroprotective effect of miR-137-3p for brachial plexus avulsion-induced motoneuron death. The present study is sought to investigate whether miR-137-3p also could protect PC12 cells against hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) induced neurotoxicity. By using cell viability assay, ROS assay, gene and protein expression assay, we found that PC-12 cells exposed to H2O2 exhibited decreased cell viability, increased expression levels of calpain-2 and neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS), whereas a decreased miR-137-3p expression. Importantly, restoring the miR-137-3p levels in H2O2 exposure robustly inhibited the elevated nNOS, calpain-2 and ROS expression levels, which subsequently improved the cell viability. Furthermore, the suppressive effect of miR-137-3p on the elevated ROS level under oxidative stress was considerably blunted when we mutated the binding site of calpain-2 targted by miR-137-3p, suggesting the critical role of calpain-2 involving the neuroprotective effect of miR-137-3p. Collectively, these findings highlight the neuroprotective role of miR-137-3p through down-regulating calpain and NOS activity, suggesting its potential role for combating oxidative stress insults in the neurodegenerative diseases.

Oxidative stress and miRNAs have been confirmed to play an important role in neurological diseases. The study aimed to explore the underlying effect and mechanisms of miR-146a in H2O2-induced injury of PC12 cells. Here, PC12 cells were stimulated with 200 μM of H2O2 to construct oxidative injury model. Cell injury was evaluated on the basis of the changes in cell viability, migration, invasion, apoptosis, and DNA damage. Results revealed that miR-146a expression was up-regulated in H2O2-induced PC12 cells. Functional analysis showed that down-regulation of miR-146a alleviated H2O2-induced cytotoxicity in PC12 cells. Dual-luciferase reporter and western blot assay verified that MCL1 was a direct target gene of miR-146a. Moreover, anti-miR-146a-mediated suppression on cell cytotoxicity was abated following MCL1 knockdown in H2O2-induced PC12 cells. Furthermore, MCL1 activated JAK/STAT signaling pathway and MCL1 overexpression attenuated H2O2-induced cytotoxicity in PC12 cells by JAK/STAT signaling pathway. In conclusion, this study suggested that suppression of miR-146a abated H2O2-induced cytotoxicity in PC12 cells via regulating MCL1/JAK/STAT pathway.  相似文献

Pyroptosis is associated with various cardiovascular diseases. Increasing evidence suggests that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been implicated in gene regulation, but how lncRNAs participate in the regulation of pyroptosis in the heart remains largely unknown. In this study, we aimed to explore the antipyroptotic effects of lncRNA FGF9‐associated factor (FAF) in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The expression patterns of lncRNA FAF, miR‐185‐5p and P21 activated kinase 2 (PAK2) were detected in hypoxia/ischaemia‐induced cardiomyocytes. Hoechst 33342/PI staining, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release assay, immunofluorescence and Western blotting were conducted to assay cell pyroptosis. The interaction between lncRNA FAF, miR‐185‐5p and PAK2 was verified by bioinformatics analysis, small RNA sequencing luciferase reporter assay and qRT‐PCR. The expression of LncRNA FAF was downregulated in hypoxic cardiomyocytes and myocardial tissues. Overexpression of lncRNA FAF could attenuate cardiomyocyte pyroptosis, improve cell viability and reduce infarct size during the procession of AMI. Moreover, lncRNA FAF was confirmed as a sponge of miR‐185‐5p and promoted PAK2 expression in cardiomyocytes. Collectively, our findings reveal a novel lncRNA FAF/miR‐185‐5p/PAK2 axis as a crucial regulator in cardiomyocyte pyroptosis, which might be a potential therapeutic target of AMI.  相似文献

The present study was designed to evaluate the potential role of miR-93 in cerebral ischemic/reperfusion (I/R) injury in mice. The stroke model was produced in C57BL/6 J mice via middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) for 1 h followed by reperfusion. And miR-93 antagomir was transfected to down-regulate the miR-93 level. Our results showed that miR-93 levels in the cerebral cortex of mice increased at 24 and 48 h after reperfusion. Importantly, in vivo study demonstrated that treatment with miR-93 antagomir reduced cerebral infarction volume, neural apoptosis and restored the neurological scores. In vitro study demonstrated that miR-93 antagomir attenuated hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced injury. Moreover, miR-93 antagomir suppressed oxidative stress in I/R brain and H2O2 treated cortical neurons. Furthermore, we founded that down-regulation of miR-93 increased the expression of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor (Nrf2) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and the luciferase reporter assay confirmed that miR-93 directly binds to the predicted 3′-UTR target sites of the nrf2 gene. Finally, we found that knockdown of Nrf2 or HO-1 abolished miR-93 antagomir-induced neuroprotection against oxidative stress in H2O2 treated neuronal cultures. These results suggested that miR-93 antagomir alleviates ischemic injury through the Nrf2/HO-1 antioxidant pathway.  相似文献

The current study aimed to investigate the mechanism by which miR-454 influences the progression of heart failure (HF) in relation to the neural precursor cell expressed, developmentally downregulated 4-2 (NEDD4-2)/tropomyosin receptor kinase A (TrkA)/cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) axis. Sprague-Dawley rats were used to establish a HF animal model via ligation of the left anterior descending branch of the coronary artery. The cardiomyocyte H9c2 cells were treated with H2O2 to stimulate oxidative stress injury in vitro. RT-qPCR and Western blot assay were subsequently performed to determine the expression patterns of miR-454, NEDD4-2, TrkA, apoptosis-related proteins and cAMP pathway markers. Dual-luciferase reporter gene assay coupled with co-immunoprecipitation was performed to elucidate the relationship between miR-454, NEDD4-2 and TrkA. Gain- or loss-of-function experiments as well as rescue experiments were conducted via transient transfection (in vitro) and adenovirus infection (in vivo) to examine their respective functions on H9c2 cell apoptosis and myocardial damage. Our results suggested that miR-454 was aberrantly downregulated in the context of HF, while evidence was obtained suggesting that it targeted NEDD4-2 to downregulate NEDD4-2 in cardiomyocytes. miR-454 exerted anti-apoptotic and protective effects on cardiomyocytes through inhibition of NEDD4-2, while NEDD4-2 stimulated ubiquitination and degradation of TrkA protein. Furthermore, miR-454 activated the cAMP pathway via the NEDD4-2/TrkA axis, which ultimately suppressed cardiomyocyte apoptosis and attenuated myocardial damage. Taken together, the key findings of the current study highlight the cardioprotective role of miR-454, which is achieved through activation of the cAMP pathway by impairing NEDD4-2-induced TrkA ubiquitination.  相似文献
