Abstract
Dental implants made of titanium are commonly used. Although titanium implants succeed by osseointegration with bone, the detailed molecular mechanism of osseointegration is unclear. To clarify the involvement of microRNA (miRNA) in the acquisition of osseointegration on titanium, here we compared the miRNA expression profiles of mouse osteoblast-like cells (MC3T3-E1) cultured on titanium-, gold-, and stainless steel-coating glass dishes by microarray analysis. Three kinds of metals, namely titanium, gold, and stainless steel, were coated on the surface of the glass dishes by sputtering with similar roughness and shape of their surface. After MC3T3-E1 cells were cultured on the dishes without coating or coating with titanium, gold, or stainless steel for 6 h, total RNA was extracted, and miRNA expression was analyzed by microarray. To confirm the expression of the selected miRNA during osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells, real-time PCR analysis was performed. Furthermore, the effects of selected miRNA were examined by ectopic overexpression in MC3T3-E1 cells. The microarray analysis revealed that the expressions of miR-155-5p and miR-7023-3p were significantly increased in MC3T3-E1 cells cultured on titanium-coating glass dishes, compared to non-coating, gold-, and stainless steel-coating glass dishes. Interestingly, miR-155-5p was upregulated during osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells. Furthermore, overexpression of miR-155-5p enhanced the expression of Runx2 and Col1a1. In this study, miR-155-5p may be involved in the acquisition of osseointegration on titanium implant via upregulating osteogenic differentiation-related genes.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence has indicated that noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) are involved in doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC). However, the ncRNA-associated competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA)-mediated regulatory mechanisms in DIC remain unclear. In this study, we aimed to systematically investigate the alterations in expression levels of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA), circular RNA (circRNA), microRNA (miRNA), and mRNA in a DIC mouse model through deep RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). The results showed that 217 lncRNAs, 41 circRNAs, 11 miRNAs and 3633 mRNAs were aberrantly expressed. Moreover, the expression of 12 randomly selected transcripts was determined by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction to test the reliability of RNA-seq data. Based on the interaction between miRNAs and mRNAs, as well as lncRNAs/circRNAs and miRNAs, we constructed comprehensive lncRNA or circRNA-associated ceRNA networks in DIC mice. Moreover, we performed Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analyses for differentially expressed genes. In conclusion, these identified ceRNA interactions provide new insight into the underlying mechanism and may be crucial therapeutic targets of DIC.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are key players in gene regulation that target specific mRNAs for degradation or translational repression. Each miRNA is synthesized as a miRNA duplex comprising two strands (5p and 3p). However, only one of the two strands becomes active and is selectively incorporated into the RNA-induced silencing complex in a process known as miRNA strand selection. Recently, significant progress has been made in understanding the factors and processes involved in strand selection. Here, we explore the selection and functionality of the miRNA star strand (either 5p or 3p), which is generally present in the cell at low levels compared to its partner strand and, historically, has been thought to possess no biological activity. We also highlight the concepts of miRNA arm switching and miRNA isomerism. Finally, we offer insights into the impact of aberrant strand selection on immunity and cancer. Leading us through this journey is miR-155, a well-established regulator of immunity and cancer, and the increasing evidence that its 3p strand plays a role in these arenas. Interestingly, the miR-155-5p/-3p ratio appears to vary dependent on the timing of the immune response, and the 3p strand seems to play a regulatory role upon its partner 5p strand.

Abstract
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common heritable cardiomyopathy and is characterized by increased left ventricular wall thickness, but existing diagnostic and treatment approaches face limitations. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are type of noncoding RNA molecule that plays crucial roles in the pathological process of cardiac remodelling. Accordingly, miRNAs related to HCM may represent potential novel therapeutic targets. In this review, we first discuss the different roles of miRNAs in the development of HCM. We then summarize the roles of common miRNAs as diagnostic and clinical biomarkers in HCM. Finally, we outline current and future challenges and potential new directions for miRNA-based therapeutics for HCM.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) describes a group of manifestations caused by the failure of heart function as a pump that supports blood flow through the body. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), as one type of non-coding RNA molecule, have crucial roles in the etiology of HF. Accordingly, miRNAs related to HF may represent potential novel therapeutic targets. In this review, we first discuss the different roles of miRNAs in the development and diseases of the heart. We then outline commonly used miRNA chemical modifications and delivery systems. Further, we summarize the opportunities and challenges for HF-related miRNA therapeutics targets, and discuss the first clinical trial of an antisense drug (CDR132L) in patients with HF. Finally, we outline current and future challenges and potential new directions for miRNA-based therapeutics for HF.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis are major pathological manifestations observed in left ventricular remodeling induced by angiotensin II (AngII). Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) has been reported to ameliorate cardiac dysfunction and myocardial fibrosis in myocardial infarction (MI) through mechano-transduction and its downstream pathways. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether LIPUS could exert a protective effect by ameliorating AngII-induced cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis and if so, to further elucidate the underlying molecular mechanisms. METHODS We used AngII to mimic animal and cell culture models of cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis. LIPUS irradiation was applied in vivo for 20 min every 2 d from one week before mini-pump implantation to four weeks after mini-pump implantation, and in vitro for 20 min on each of two occasions 6 h apart. Cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis levels were then evaluated by echocardiographic, histopathological, and molecular biological methods. RESULTS Our results showed that LIPUS could ameliorate left ventricular remodeling in vivo and cardiac fibrosis in vitro by reducing AngII-induced release of inflammatory cytokines, but the protective effects on cardiac hypertrophy were limited in vitro. Given that LIPUS increased the expression of caveolin-1 in response to mechanical stimulation, we inhibited caveolin-1 activity with pyrazolopyrimidine 2 (pp2) in vivo and in vitro. LIPUS-induced downregulation of inflammation was reversed and the anti-fibrotic effects of LIPUS were absent. CONCLUSIONS These results indicated that LIPUS could ameliorate AngII-induced cardiac fibrosis by alleviating inflammation via a caveolin-1-dependent pathway, providing new insights for the development of novel therapeutic apparatus in clinical practice.

Abstract
The use of circulating microRNAs as biomarkers opens up new opportunities for the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases because of their specific expression profiles. The aim of the present study was to identify circulating microRNAs in human plasma as potential biomarkers of heart failure and related diseases. We used real-time quantitative PCR to screen microRNA in plasma samples from 62 normal controls and 62 heart failure samples. We found that circulating miR-21-5p, miR-30a-3p, miR-30a-5p, miR-155-5p, miR-216a and miR-217 expressed differently between healthy controls and heart failure patients. Plasma levels of miR-21-5p, miR-30a-3p, miR-30a-5p, miR-155-5p, miR-216a and miR-217 were unaffected by hemolysis. Correlation analysis showed any two of these miRNAs possess a strong correlation, indicating a possibility of combined analysis. MiR-21-5p, miR-30a-3p, miR-30a-5p, miR-155-5p, miR-216a and miR-217 could be combined in two or three or more combinations. The results suggest that miR-21-5p, miR-30a-3p, miR-30a-5p, miR-155-5p, miR-216a and miR-217 may be a new diagnostic biomarker for heart failure and related diseases.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important regulators in the process of cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure. Previous studies have shown that miR-199a is upregulated in pressure-overload cardiac hypertrophy and that inhibition of miR-199a attenuates cardiac hypertrophy in vitro. However, the therapeutic role of anti-miR-199a treatment in the cardiac hypertrophy in vivo model is less known. Here, we show an efficient and useful method to treat mouse cardiac hypertrophy and restore cardiac function through injection of adeno-associated virus (AAV)-mediated anti-miR-199a tough decoys (TuDs). RNA-seq transcriptome analysis indicated that genes related to cytoplasmic translation and mitochondrial respiratory chain complex assembly were upregulated in anti-miR-199a-treated recovered hearts. We further validated that PGC-1α is the direct target of miR-199a involved in the therapeutic effect and the regulation of the PGC-1α/ERRα axis and that the downstream pathway of mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation and oxidative phosphorylation constitute the underlying mechanism of the restored mitochondrial structure and function in our anti-miR-199a-treated mice. Our study highlights the important regulatory role of miR-199a in cardiac hypertrophy and the value of the AAV-mediated miRNA delivery system.

Abstract
Objective This study was conducted to investigate the level of microRNA-155 (miRNA-155) in patients with heart failure (HF) after myocardial infarction (MI) and its clinical importance. Methods Serum miRNA-155 levels were measured using quantitative reverse transcription (qRT)-PCR. The left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular posterior wall thickness, and left ventricular end-diastolic diameter were measured by echocardiography. Serum amino-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and other parameters were also analyzed. Results miRNA-155 levels in patients with HF were significantly higher than in control and MI groups. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of serum miRNA-155 in the diagnosis of HF after MI was 0.941, the cutoff value was 1.77, sensitivity was 92.73%, and specificity was 92.14%. NT-proBNP levels were significantly higher and LVEF was lower in patients with high versus low miRNA-155 expression. Conclusions Patients with HF after MI had elevated miRNA-155 levels and poor cardiac function, suggesting that determining miRNA-155 expression could be used to assess the severity of the disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate predictive value of 14 pro-angiogenic miRNAs for cardiotoxicity induced by epirubicin/cyclophosphamide follow by docetaxel (EC-D) in breast cancer (BC) patients. METHODS Three hundred and sixty-three BC patients receiving EC-D neoadjuvant chemotherapy were consecutively enrolled in this prospective cohort study. Peripheral blood sample was obtained from each patient, and plasma was separated. The expressions of 14 pro-angiogenic miRNAs, cardiac troponin I (cTnI) and N-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) were evaluated. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) level at C0, the end of 4 cycles of EC chemotherapy (C4), the end of 4 cycles of docetaxel treatment (C8), 3rd months (M3), 6th months (M6), 9th months (M9) and 12th months (M12) after surgery were assessed. RESULTS LVEF decreased at C4, C8, M3, M6, M9 and M12 compared with C0, and the total cardiotoxicity incidence was 5.2%. Additionally, the levels of let-7f, miR-17-5p, miR-20a, miR-126, miR-210 and miR-378 were reduced in cardiotoxicity patients. Multivariate logistic regression revealed that miR-17-5p and miR-20a were independently predictive factors for less cardiotoxicity. Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve displayed a satisfactory predictive value for lower cardiotoxicity risk with area under curve (AUC) of 0.842 of the combination of the miR-17-5p and miR-20a expressions. In addition, let-7f,miR-126, miR-210 and miR-378 levels negatively correlated with cTnI expression, and let-7f and miR-130a expressions reversely correlated with NT-proBNP level.CONLUSIONS: miR-17-5p and miR-20a could be served as biomarkers for lower cardiotoxicity induced by EC-D neoadjuvant chemotherapy in BC patients.

Shu J, Liu Z, Jin L, Wang H. An RNA‑sequencing study identifies candidate genes for angiotensin II‑induced cardiac remodeling. Mol Med Rep 2017; 17:1954-1962. [PMID: 29138860 DOI: 10.3892/mmr.2017.8043] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2017] [Accepted: 08/24/2017] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
Abstract
The present study aimed to reveal the underlying mechanism of angiotensin II (AngII)‑induced cardiac remodeling and to identify potential therapeutic targets for prevention. Rat cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) were cultured with 10 nM AngII for 12 h, and CFs without AngII were used as the control. Following RNA isolation from AngII treated and control CFs, RNA‑sequencing was performed to detect gene expression levels. Differentially‑expressed genes (DEGs) were identified using the linear models for microarray analysis package in R software, and their functions and pathways were examined via enrichment analysis. In addition, potential associations at the protein level were revealed via the construction of a protein‑protein interaction (PPI) network. The expression levels of genes of interest were validated via reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis. In total, 126 upregulated and 140 downregulated DEGs were identified. According to the enrichment analysis, acetyl coA carboxylase β (ACACB), interleukin 1β (IL1B), interleukin 1α (IL1A), nitric oxide synthase 2 (NOS2) and matrix metallopeptidase 3 (MMP3) were associated with the immune response, regulation of angiogenesis, superoxide metabolic process and carboxylic acid binding biological processes. Among them, ACACB and MPP3 were two predominant nodes in the PPI network. In addition, IL1B and MMP3 were demonstrated to be upregulated. These five genes, particularly IL1B and MMP3, may be used as candidate markers for the prevention of AngII‑induced cardiac remodeling.

Involment of RAS/ERK1/2 signaling and MEF2C in miR-155-3p inhibition-triggered cardiomyocyte differentiation of embryonic stem cell. Oncotarget 2017; 8:84403-84416. [PMID: 29137434 PMCID: PMC5663606 DOI: 10.18632/oncotarget.21218] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2017] [Accepted: 08/27/2017] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short, noncoding RNAs that regulate post-transcriptional gene expression by targeting messenger RNAs (mRNAs) for cleavage or translational repression. Growing evidence indicates that miR-155 expression changes with the development of heart and plays an important role in heart physiopathology. However, the role of miR-155 in cardiac cells differentiation is unclear. Using the well-established embryonic stem cell (ESC), we demonstrated that miR-155-3p expression was down-regulated during cardiogenesis from mouse ESC. By contrast, the myogenic enhance factor 2C (MEF2C), a predicted target gene of miR-155-3p, was up-regulated. We further demonstrated that miR-155-3p inhibition increased the percentage of embryoid bodies (EB) beating and up-regulated the expression of cardiac specific markers, GATA4, Nkx2.5, and cTnT mRNA and protein. Notably, miR-155-3p inhibition caused upregulation of MEF2C, KRAS and ERK1/2. ERK1/2 inhibitor, PD98059 significantly decreased the expression of MEF2C protein. These findings indicate that miR-155-3p inhibition promotes cardiogenesis, and its mechanisms are involved in the RAS-ERK1/2 signaling and MEF2C.
