Clarifying themolecular mechanism and identifying markers of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury is crucial for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction.
This study aimed to investigate the roles and underlying regulatory mechanisms of microRNA 1283 (miR-1283) and GADD45A in cardiomyocytes injured by hypoxia /reoxygenation (H/R).
Bioinformatic analyses were used to determine the expression of GADD45A and miR-1283 based on various datasets from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. Human embryonic cardiomyocytes were subjected to H/R to construct in vitro models. Real -time quantitative polymerase chain reaction and Western blot were used to detect mRNA and protein expression levels, respectively. The binding sites between miR-1283 and GADD45A were predicted by the TargetScan software and verified using dual luciferase reporter assays. Cell viability and apoptosis were detected with the use of Cell Counting Kit 8 and flow cytometry assays.
GADD45A and miR-1283 were upregulated or downregulated in myocardial infarction, respectively. MicroRNA 1283 expression was decreased in cardiomyocytes after H/R treatment. H/R treatment reduced cardiomyocyte viability and enhanced apoptosis, and these effects were abated by transfection of a miR1283 mimic and strengthened by transfection of a miR-1283 inhibitor. MicroRNA 1283 bound to the 3' untranslated region of GADD45A and decreased the levels of GADD45A, which inhibited proliferation and promoted apoptosis in H/R -induced cardiomyocyte injury. Reintroduction of GADD45A attenuated the effect of miR-1283 on the viability and apoptosis of cardiomyocytes in H/R models. The JNK and p38 MAPK signaling pathways were regulated by the miR-283-GADD45A axis.
The miR-1283-GADD45A axis may protect against H/R -induced cardiomyocyte injury by suppressing the JNK and p38 MAPK pathways.
阐明心肌缺血/再灌注损伤的分子机制并鉴定其标志物,对于急性心肌梗死的治疗至关重要。
本研究旨在探讨微小 RNA 1283(miR-1283)和生长停滞及 DNA 损伤诱导蛋白 45A(GADD45A)在缺氧/复氧(H/R)诱导的心肌细胞损伤中的作用及其潜在调控机制。
基于基因表达综合数据库中的各种数据集,采用生物信息学分析方法确定 GADD45A 和 miR-1283 的表达。将人胚胎心肌细胞进行 H/R 处理,构建体外模型。实时定量聚合酶链反应和 Western blot 分别用于检测 mRNA 和蛋白表达水平。TargetScan 软件预测 miR-1283 与 GADD45A 之间的结合位点,并通过双荧光素酶报告基因实验进行验证。采用细胞计数试剂盒 8 和流式细胞术检测细胞活力和凋亡。
GADD45A 和 miR-1283 在心肌梗死中分别上调或下调。H/R 处理后心肌细胞中 miR-1283 的表达降低。H/R 处理降低了心肌细胞活力并增强了细胞凋亡,而过表达 miR-1283 模拟物可减轻这些作用,而过表达 miR-1283 抑制剂则可增强这些作用。miR-1283 与 GADD45A 的 3'非翻译区结合,降低了 GADD45A 的水平,从而抑制了 H/R 诱导的心肌细胞损伤中的增殖并促进了细胞凋亡。GADD45A 的再导入减弱了 miR-1283 对 H/R 模型中心肌细胞活力和凋亡的影响。miR-1283-GADD45A 轴通过调节 JNK 和 p38 MAPK 信号通路来发挥作用。
miR-1283-GADD45A 轴可能通过抑制 JNK 和 p38 MAPK 通路来保护心肌细胞免受 H/R 诱导的损伤。
