MicroRNA-7b attenuates ischemia/reperfusion-induced H9C2 cardiomyocyte apoptosis via the hypoxia inducible factor-1/p-p38 pathway.
Journal of Cellular Biochemistry 2019 June
OBJECTIVE: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been shown to play crucial roles in the occurrence, development, and treatment of many cardiovascular diseases. Coronary heart disease (CAD)-related miRNAs are still a growing research area. miR-7b was reported to be downregulated in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) myocardium tissues. However, it remains largely unknown whether miR-7b is involved in the pathogenesis and progression of the AMI ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury.
METHODS: Male C57BL/6 J mice and H9C2 cells were used as models in this study. Masson staining, real-time polymerase chain reaction, Western blot analysis, and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end-labeling immunofluorescence staining assays were performed to detect the related indicators in the study. SPSS 17.0 software was used to calculate the experimental data.
RESULTS: The results showed that miR-7b expression is downregulated after I/R in mice, and miR-7b could inhibit apoptosis in I/R-induced H9C2 cells via upregulating hypoxia-inducible factor 1a (HIF1a). The inhibitory effect of miR-7b on I/R-induced apoptosis in H9C2 cells was blocked by HIF1a silencing. In addition, our data suggested that the p-P38 pathway may be involved in the role of miR-7 in I/R-induced H9C2 cell apoptosis.
CONCLUSION: We confirmed that the overexpression of miR-7b inhibits I/R-induced apoptosis in H9C2 cells by targeting the HIF1a/p-P38 pathway. Our findings not only demonstrate the potential role of miR-7b in attenuating I/R-induced apoptosis but also provide a new insight into the better prevention of the I/R injury by mediating HIF-1 and p-P38.
