Abstract
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation in RNA is a dynamic and reversible modification regulated by methyltransferases and demethylases, which has been reported to participate in many pathological processes of various diseases, including cardiac disorders. This study was designed to investigate an m6A writer Mettl14 on cardiac ischemia–reperfusion (I/R) injury and uncover the underlying mechanism. The m6A and Mettl14 protein levels were increased in I/R hearts and neonatal mouse cardiomyocytes upon oxidative stress. Mettl14 knockout (Mettl14+/−) mice showed pronounced increases in cardiac infarct size and LDH release and aggravation in cardiac dysfunction post-I/R. Conversely, adenovirus-mediated overexpression of Mettl14 markedly reduced infarct size and apoptosis and improved cardiac function during I/R injury. Silencing of Mettl14 alone significantly caused a decrease in cell viability and an increase in LDH release and further exacerbated these effects in the presence of H2O2, while overexpression of Mettl14 ameliorated cardiomyocyte injury in vitro. Mettl14 resulted in enhanced levels of Wnt1 m6A modification and Wnt1 protein but not its transcript level. Furthermore, Mettl14 overexpression blocked I/R-induced downregulation of Wnt1 and β-catenin proteins, whereas Mettl14+/− hearts exhibited the opposite results. Knockdown of Wnt1 abrogated Mettl14-mediated upregulation of β-catenin and protection against injury upon H2O2. Our study demonstrates that Mettl14 attenuates cardiac I/R injury by activating Wnt/β-catenin in an m6A-dependent manner, providing a novel therapeutic target for ischemic heart disease.

Abstract
Current interventions fail to recover injured myocardium after infarction and prompt the need for development of cardioprotective strategies. Of increasing interest is the therapeutic use of microRNAs to control gene expression through specific targeting of mRNAs. In this Review, we discuss current microRNA-based therapeutic strategies, describing the outcomes and limitations of key microRNAs with a focus on target cell types and molecular pathways. Last, we offer a perspective on the outlook of microRNA therapies for myocardial infarction, highlighting the outstanding challenges and emerging strategies.

Abstract
Myocardial ischemia is a high-risk disease among middle-aged and senior individuals. After thrombolytic therapy, heart tissue can potentially suffer further damage, which is called myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI). At present, the treatment methods and drugs for MIRI are scarce and cannot meet the current clinical needs. The mechanism of MIRI involves the interaction of multiple factors, and the current research hotspots mainly include oxidative stress, inflammation, calcium overload, energy metabolism disorders, pyroptosis, and ferroptosis. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has multiple targets and few toxic side effects; clinical preparations containing Panax ginseng C. A. Mey., Panax notoginseng (Burk.) F. H. Chen, Aralia chinensis L., cardioprotection, and other Chinese herbal medicines have been used to treat patients with coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, and other cardiovascular diseases. Studies have shown that saponins are the main active substances in TCMs containing Panax ginseng C. A. Mey., Panax notoginseng (Burk.) F. H. Chen, Aralia chinensis L., and Radix astragali. In the present review, we sorted the saponin components with anti-MIRI effects and their regulatory mechanisms. Each saponin can play a cardioprotective role via multiple mechanisms, and the signaling pathways involved in different saponins are not the same. We found that more active saponins in Panax ginseng C. A. Mey. are mainly dammar-type structures and have a strong regulatory effect on energy metabolism. The highly active saponin components of Aralia chinensis L. are oleanolic acid structures, which have significant regulatory effects on calcium homeostasis. Therefore, saponins in Chinese herbal medicine provide a broad application prospect for the development of highly effective and low-toxicity anti-MIRI drugs.

ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2020; 205:111283. [PMID: 32977282 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2020.111283] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2020] [Revised: 08/30/2020] [Accepted: 09/01/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) airborne pollution increases the risk of chronic respiratory diseases, such as idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), which is characterized by non-specific inflammation of the interstitial lung and extensive deposition of collagen fibers. Type 2 alveolar epithelial cells (AEC2s) are alveolar stem cells in the adult lung that contribute to the lung repair process through complex signaling. Our previous studies demonstrated that OGG1, a kind of DNA repair enzyme, have a critical role in protecting cells from oxidative damage and apoptosis induced by PM2.5, but the contribution of OGG1 in proliferation and self-renewal of AEC2s is not known. Here, we constructed OGG1-/-mice to test the effect and mechanism of OGG1 on PM2.5-induced pulmonary fibrosis and injury in vivo. We detected proliferation and self-renewal of OGG1 overexpression or OGG1 knockout AEC2s after PM2.5 injury by flow cytometry and clone formation. We observed that knockout of OGG1 aggravated pulmonary fibrosis, oxidative stress, and AEC2 cell death in PM2.5-injured mice. In addition, OGG1 is required for the proliferation and renewal of AEC2s after PM2.5 injury. Overexpression of OGG1 promotes the proliferation and self-renewal of AEC2s by inhibiting PM2.5-mediated oxidative stress and NF-κB signaling hyperactivation in vitro. Furthermore, NF-κB inhibitors promoted proliferation and self-renewal of OGG1-deficient AEC2s cells after PM2.5 injury, and attenuated PM2.5-induced pulmonary fibrosis and injury in mice. These data establish OGG1 as a regulator of NF-κB signal that serves to regulate AEC2 cell proliferation and self-renewal, and suggest a mechanism that inhibition of the NF-κB signaling pathway may represent a potential therapeutic strategy for IPF patients with low-expression of OGG1.
