[PMID: 38858339 DOI: 10.1007/s12265-024-10530-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 06/12/2024]
Abstract
Recent research shows exercise is good for heart health, emphasizing the importance of physical activity. Sedentary behavior increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, while exercise can help prevent and treat it. Additionally, physical exercise can modulate the expression of lncRNAs, influencing cardiovascular disease progression. Therefore, understanding this relationship could help identify prospective biomarkers and therapeutic targets pertaining to cardiovascular ailments. This review has underscored recent advancements concerning the potential biomarkers of lncRNAs in cardiovascular diseases, while also summarizing existing knowledge regarding dysregulated lncRNAs and their plausible molecular mechanisms. Additionally, we have contributed novel perspectives on the underlying mechanisms of lncRNAs, which hold promise as potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets for cardiovascular conditions. The knowledge imparted in this review may prove valuable in guiding the design of future investigations and furthering the understanding of lncRNAs as diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic biomarkers for cardiovascular diseases.

Chen H, Li X, Chen W, Wu T, Liu S. LncRNA HOTAIR Inhibits miR-19a-3p to Alleviate Foam Cell Formation and Inflammatory Response in Atherosclerosis. Int J Med Sci 2024; 21:521-529. [PMID: 38250607 PMCID: PMC10797679 DOI: 10.7150/ijms.90315] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2023] [Accepted: 12/18/2023] [Indexed: 01/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: Atherosclerosis, a chronic inflammatory disease, poses a significant risk for cardiovascular disorders. Meanwhile, emerging evidence suggests that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play pivotal roles in diverse cardiovascular conditions. Nonetheless, the functional implications of lncRNAs in atherosclerosis remain largely unexplored. Methods: Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was employed to assess lncRNA HOTAIR and miR-19a-3p expression levels in patients with atherosclerosis and macrophage-derived foam cells. The release of inflammatory factors was evaluated using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), while lipid uptake by foam cells was assessed through Oil Red O staining. Additionally, the targeting relationship between lncRNA HOTAIR and miR-19a-3p was validated via a Luciferase reporter assay. Results: LncRNA HOTAIR exhibited downregulation in the plasma of atherosclerosis patients and was found to be inhibited by ox-LDL in human macrophage-derived foam cells. Overexpression of HOTAIR effectively reduced lipid uptake and suppressed the inflammatory response by downregulating the expression of TNF-α and IL-6 during foam cell formation. Mechanistically, HOTAIR mitigated foam cell formation by repressing the expression of miR-19a-3p. Conclusions: In conclusion, our findings, in conjunction with previous studies, elucidate the role of HOTAIR in atherosclerosis. Specifically, we demonstrate that HOTAIR plays a role in alleviating foam cell formation and suppressing the inflammatory response by inhibiting miR-19a-3p in the context of atherosclerosis. Our results suggest the involvement of the TNF-α/miR-19a/HBP1/MIF pathway in mediating these effects. These findings contribute to a better understanding of atherosclerosis's molecular mechanisms and highlight the potential therapeutic implications of targeting HOTAIR and its associated pathways.

[PMID: 37150150 PMCID: PMC10184047 DOI: 10.1016/j.redox.2023.102730] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2023] [Revised: 04/25/2023] [Accepted: 05/03/2023] [Indexed: 05/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of death worldwide. Supplementation with the marine omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is associated with lower CVD risk. However, results from randomized controlled trials that examine the effect of omega-3 supplementation on CVD risk are inconsistent. This risk-reducing effect may be mediated by reducing inflammation, oxidative stress and serum triglyceride (TG) levels. However, not all individuals respond by reducing TG levels after omega-3 supplementation. This inter-individual variability in TG response to omega-3 supplementation is not fully understood. Hence, we aim to review the evidence for how interactions between omega-3 fatty acid supplementation and genetic variants, epigenetic and gene expression profiling, gut microbiota and habitual intake of omega-3 fatty acids can explain why the TG response differs between individuals. This may contribute to understanding the current controversies and play a role in defining future personalized guidelines to prevent CVD.
