Right ventricular (RV) failure is the primary cause of death in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). We hypothesized that heart‐relevant microRNAs, that is myomiRs (miR‐1, miR‐133a, miR‐208, miR‐499) and miR‐214, can have a role in the right ventricle in the development of PAH. To mimic PAH, male Wistar rats were injected with monocrotaline (MCT, 60 mg/kg, s.c.); control group received vehicle. MCT rats were divided into two groups, based on the clinical presentation: MCT group terminated 4 weeks after MCT administration and prematurely terminated group (ptMCT) displaying signs of terminal disease. Myocardial damage genes and candidate microRNAs expressions were determined by RT‐qPCR. Reduced blood oxygen saturation, breathing disturbances, RV enlargement as well as elevated levels of markers of myocardial damage confirmed PH in MCT animals and were more pronounced in ptMCT. MyomiRs (miR‐1/miR‐133a/miR‐208a/miR‐499) were decreased and the expression of miR‐214 was increased only in ptMCT group (P < 0.05). The myomiRs negatively correlated with Fulton index as a measure of RV hypertrophy in MCT group (P < 0.05), whereas miR‐214 showed a positive correlation (P < 0.05). We conclude that the expression of determined microRNAs mirrored the disease severity and targeting their pathways might represent potential future therapeutic approach in PAH. 相似文献

Piwi‐interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are thought to be germline‐specific and to be involved in maintaining genome stability during development. Recently, piRNA expression has been identified in somatic cells in diverse organisms. However, the roles of piRNAs in pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cell (PASMC) proliferation and the molecular mechanism underlying the hypoxia‐regulated pathological process of pulmonary hypertension are not well understood. Using hypoxic animal models, cell and molecular biology, we obtained the first evidence that the expression of piRNA‐63076 was up‐regulated in hypoxia and was positively correlated with cell proliferation. Subsequently, we showed that acyl‐CoA dehydrogenase (Acadm), which is negatively regulated by piRNA‐63076 and interacts with Piwi proteins, was involved in hypoxic PASMC proliferation. Finally, Acadm inhibition under hypoxia was partly attributed to DNA methylation of the Acadm promoter region mediated by piRNA‐63076. Overall, these findings represent invaluable resources for better understanding the role of epigenetics in pulmonary hypertension associated with piRNAs. 相似文献

The increase in proliferation and the lack of differentiation of cancer cells resemble what occur in the embryonic stem cells during physiological process of embryogenesis. There are also striking similarities in the behaviour between the invasive placental cells and invasive cancer cells. In the present study, microarrays were used to analyse the global expression of microRNAs in a human embryonic stem cell line (i.e. HUES‐17) and four colorectal cancer (CRC) cell lines (i.e. LoVo, SW480, HT29 and Caco‐2) with different metastatic potentialities. Only the expression of miR‐26b was significant decreased in HUES‐17s and LoVo cells, compared with other three cell lines (P < 0.01). The quantitative real‐time PCR analysis confirmed the results of the microarray analysis. Overexpression of miR‐26b expression by miR‐26 mimics transfection and led to the significant suppression of the cell growth and the induction of apoptosis in LoVo cells in vitro, and the inhibition of tumour growth in vivo. Moreover, the potential targets of miR‐26b was predicted by using bioinformatics, and then the predicted target genes were further validated by comparing gene expression profiles between LoVo and NCM460 cell lines. Four genes (TAF12, PTP4A1, CHFR and ALS2CR2) with intersection were found to be the targets of miR‐26b. MetaCore network analysis further showed that the regulatory pathways of miR‐26b were significantly associated with the invasiveness and metastasis of CRC cells. These data suggest that miR‐26b might serve as a novel prognostic factor and a potential therapeutic target for CRC. 相似文献

目的:研究低氧暴露对大鼠脑和肺微动脉内皮功能的影响以及埃他卡林(Ipt)对以上微动脉的扩张作用特征。方法:将雄性SD大鼠随机分为2组,常压常氧组(control)和低氧暴露组(hypoxic),后者置于常压低氧暴露舱内(O27.8%)8 h。分离大鼠管径为(204±5)μm的脑基底动脉、肺微动脉组织,利用DMT微血管张力测定仪在6nmol/L内皮素-1(ET-1)致血管预收缩条件下,利用乙酰胆碱(ACh)考察微动脉内皮功能及观察不同浓度Ipt对脑和肺微动脉张力变化的影响。结果:与常压常氧组对比,10-5 mol/L乙酰胆碱(ACh)对低氧暴露脑肺微动脉扩张率显著降低(P0.05);新型ATP敏感性钾通道开放剂Ipt在(10-11~10-3)mol/L对低氧暴露肺微动脉呈剂量依赖性扩张作用,明显强于对常压常氧组(P0.01),在(10-11~10-3)mol/L对低氧暴露脑微动脉呈剂量依赖性扩张作用,但与常压常氧组相比无显著差异。结论:低氧暴露可导致脑基底动脉和肺微动脉内皮功能受损,Ipt具有选择性增强扩张低氧暴露肺微动脉的作用,但不影响以上条件低氧暴露后脑基底动脉的扩张作用,提示该药可应用于改善低氧暴露所致的肺微血管收缩,为Ipt发展为新型治疗肺动脉高压的药物提供理论基础。 相似文献

实验性红细胞增多和慢性缺氧对右心室肥大的影响 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
为了研究红细胞增多对缺氧性肺动脉高压和右室肥大的影响,将大鼠分为四组:常氧对照组;单纯红细胞增多组;慢性缺氧组;慢性缺氧复合红细胞增多组。结果表明,单纯红细胞增多引起右室V_(max)、右室收缩压和右室重量指数增加。慢性缺氧不仅引起右室±dP/dt_(max)和V_(max)增加,还引起右室收缩压和右室重量指数增加。慢性缺氧复合红细胞增多进一步使右室收缩压和右室重量指数增加。此外,还出现左室重量指数增加。以上结果表明,红细胞增多在缺氧性肺动脉高压和右室肥大中起着重要作用。 相似文献

目的:探讨新的小分子活性肽Apelin对大鼠离体肺动脉环的舒张作用及与一氧化氮(NO)途径的关系,并比较低氧大鼠的肺动脉环对Apelin的舒张反应与正常大鼠的差异。方法:36只大鼠随机分为正常组与低氧组;采用离体血管环灌流法,检测Apelin对去甲肾上腺素(NE)预收缩的大鼠离体肺主动脉环的舒张效应,观察去内皮或用一氧化氮合酶抑制剂(L-NAME)、可溶性鸟苷酸环化酶(sGC)抑制剂(ODQ)孵育后该舒张率的变化。结果:①在正常组大鼠肺动脉环,Apelin(0.01~100 nmol/L)具有浓度依赖性的舒张效应。去除内皮后,Apelin对NE预先收缩的肺血管舒张效应明显减弱(P〈0.01)。L-NAME或ODQ预孵育后,Apelin的舒张效应均明显减弱(P均〈0.01)。②低氧组大鼠的肺动脉环对Apelin的舒张反应明显低于正常组大鼠,在最大浓度100 nmol/L时,Apelin的效应低60.45%(P〈0.01),而两组EC50相比差异无显著性(P〉0.05)。结论:Apelin具有内皮依赖性的舒张肺动脉环的作用,该效应与NO-sGC-cGMP信号途径有关;低氧大鼠的离体肺动脉环对Apelin的舒张反应减弱。 相似文献

Connectivity and function of neuronal circuitry require the correct specification and growth of axons and dendrites. Here, we identify the microRNAs miR‐181a and miR‐181b as key regulators of retinal axon specification and growth. Loss of miR‐181a/b in medaka fish (Oryzias latipes) failed to consolidate amacrine cell processes into axons and delayed the growth of retinal ganglion cell (RGC) axons. These alterations were accompanied by defects in visual connectivity and function. We demonstrated that miR‐181a/b exert these actions through negative modulation of MAPK/ERK signaling that in turn leads to RhoA reduction and proper neuritogenesis in both amacrine cells and RGCs via local cytoskeletal rearrangement. Our results identify a new pathway for axon specification and growth unraveling a crucial role of miR‐181a/b in the proper establishment of visual system connectivity and function. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
