[PMID: 35978367 PMCID: PMC9386969 DOI: 10.1186/s13062-022-00333-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/15/2022] [Accepted: 07/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Recently, microRNAs (miRNAs), have been extensively investigated in diseases. The upregulated expression of miR-19b-3p has been validated in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Nonetheless, it regulatory mechanism in myocardial infarction (MI) is still unclear. PURPOSE This research aimed to investigate the role and molecular regulation mechanism of miR-19b-3p in MI. METHODS QRT-PCR and western blot assays measured RNA and protein expression. Cell apoptosis were tested by flow cytometry and TUNEL assays. Cell viability was measured by trypan blue staining method. RIP and luciferase report assays examined gene interaction. The assays were performed under hypoxia condition. RESULTS MiR-19b-3p was highly expressed in myocardial cell line H9C2, primary cardiomyocytes, and tissues from MI mouse model. MiR-19b-3p inhibition suppressed the apoptosis of cardiomyocytes. BC002059 could up-regulate ABHD10 through sequestering miR-19b-3p. BC002059 upregulation was observed to repress cell apoptosis. Rescue experiments demonstrated that miR-19b-3p overexpression abrogated the suppressive impact of BC002059 on the apoptosis of MI cells, and infarct size, area at risk as well as CK-MB and LDH release of MI mouse model tissues, which was further abolished via ABHD10 increment. CONCLUSION MiR-19b-3p regulated by BC002059/ABHD10 axis promotes cell apoptosis in MI, which might provide a novel perspective for MI alleviation research.

Chaulin AM. Metabolic Pathway of Cardiospecific Troponins: From Fundamental Aspects to Diagnostic Role (Comprehensive Review). Front Mol Biosci 2022; 9:841277. [PMID: 35517866 PMCID: PMC9062030 DOI: 10.3389/fmolb.2022.841277] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2021] [Accepted: 03/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Many molecules of the human body perform key regulatory functions and are widely used as targets for the development of therapeutic drugs or as specific diagnostic markers. These molecules undergo a significant metabolic pathway, during which they are influenced by a number of factors (biological characteristics, hormones, enzymes, etc.) that can affect molecular metabolism and, as a consequence, the serum concentration or activity of these molecules. Among the most important molecules in the field of cardiology are the molecules of cardiospecific troponins (Tns), which regulate the processes of myocardial contraction/relaxation and are used as markers for the early diagnosis of ischemic necrosis of cardiomyocytes (CMC) in myocardial infarction (MI). The diagnostic value and diagnostic capabilities of cardiospecific Tns have changed significantly after the advent of new (highly sensitive (HS)) detection methods. Thus, early diagnostic algorithms of MI were approved for clinical practice, thanks to which the possibility of rapid diagnosis and determination of optimal tactics for managing patients with MI was opened. Relatively recently, promising directions have also been opened for the use of cardiospecific Tns as prognostic markers both at the early stages of the development of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) (arterial hypertension (AH), heart failure (HF), coronary heart disease (CHD), etc.), and in non-ischemic extra-cardiac pathologies that can negatively affect CMC (for example, sepsis, chronic kidney disease (CKD), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), etc.). Recent studies have also shown that cardiospecific Tns are present not only in blood serum, but also in other biological fluids (urine, oral fluid, pericardial fluid, amniotic fluid). Thus, cardiospecific Tns have additional diagnostic capabilities. However, the fundamental aspects of the metabolic pathway of cardiospecific Tns are definitively unknown, in particular, specific mechanisms of release of Tns from CMC in non-ischemic extra-cardiac pathologies, mechanisms of circulation and elimination of Tns from the human body, mechanisms of transport of Tns to other biological fluids and factors that may affect these processes have not been established. In this comprehensive manuscript, all stages of the metabolic pathway are consistently and in detail considered, starting from release from CMC and ending with excretion (removal) from the human body. In addition, the possible diagnostic role of individual stages and mechanisms, influencing factors is analyzed and directions for further research in this area are noted.

[PMID: 35402607 PMCID: PMC8986381 DOI: 10.1155/2022/6454467] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/25/2021] [Revised: 03/14/2022] [Accepted: 03/15/2022] [Indexed: 01/02/2023]
Abstract
The study of the metabolism of endogenous molecules is not only of great fundamental significance but also of high practical importance, since many molecules serve as drug targets and/or biomarkers for laboratory diagnostics of diseases. Thus, cardiac troponin molecules have long been used as the main biomarkers for confirmation of diagnosis of myocardial infarction, and with the introduction of high-sensitivity test methods, many of our ideas about metabolism of these cardiac markers have changed significantly. In clinical practice, there are opening new promising diagnostic capabilities of cardiac troponins, the understanding and justification of which are closely connected with the fundamental principles of the metabolism of these molecules. Our current knowledge about the metabolism of cardiac troponins is insufficient and extremely disconnected from various literary sources. Thus, many researchers do not sufficiently understand the potential importance of cardiac troponin metabolism in the laboratory diagnosis of myocardial infarction. The purpose of this comprehensive review is to systematize information about the metabolism of cardiac troponins and during the discussion to focus on the potential impact of cTns metabolism on the laboratory diagnosis of myocardial infarction. The format of this comprehensive review includes a sequential consideration and analysis of the stages of the metabolic pathway, starting from possible release mechanisms and ending with elimination mechanisms. This will allow doctors and researchers to understand the significant importance of cTns metabolism and its impact on the laboratory diagnosis of myocardial infarction.

Expression of cardiovascular-related microRNAs is altered in L-arginine:glycine amidinotransferase deficient mice. Sci Rep 2022; 12:5108. [PMID: 35332188 PMCID: PMC8948300 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-08846-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2021] [Accepted: 03/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
In humans and mice, L-arginine:glycine amidinotransferase (AGAT) and its metabolites homoarginine (hArg) and creatine have been linked to cardiovascular disease (CVD), specifically myocardial infarction (MI) and heart failure (HF). The underlying molecular and regulatory mechanisms, however, remain unclear. To identify potential pathways of cardiac AGAT metabolism, we sequenced microRNA (miRNA) in left ventricles of wild-type (wt) compared to AGAT-deficient (AGAT-/-) mice. Using literature search and validation by qPCR, we identified eight significantly regulated miRNAs in AGAT-/- mice linked to atherosclerosis, MI and HF: miR-30b, miR-31, miR-130a, miR-135a, miR-148a, miR-204, miR-298, and let-7i. Analysis of Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) data confirmed deregulation of these miRNAs in mouse models of MI and HF. Quantification of miRNA expression by qPCR in AGAT-/- mice supplemented with creatine or hArg revealed that miR-30b, miR-31, miR-130a, miR-148a, and miR-204 were regulated by creatine, while miR-135a and miR-298 showed a trend of regulation by hArg. Finally, bioinformatics-based target prediction showed that numerous AGAT-dependent genes previously linked to CVD are likely to be regulated by the identified miRNAs. Taken together, AGAT deficiency and hArg/creatine supplementation are associated with cardiac miRNA expression which may influence cardiac (dys)function and CVD.

Abstract
Understanding of the biology of endo- and exogenous molecules, in particular their metabolism, is not only of great theoretical importance, but also of high practical significance, since many molecules serve as drug targets or markers for the laboratory diagnostics of many human diseases. Thus, cardiac troponin (cTns) molecules have long been used as key markers for the confirmation of diagnosis of myocardial infarction (MI), and with the introduction of contemporary (high sensitivity) test methods, many of our concepts related to the biology of these cardiac markers have changed significantly. In current clinical practice, there are opening new promising diagnostic capabilities of cTns, the understanding and justification of which is closely connected with the theoretical principles of the metabolism of these molecules. However, today, the biology and metabolism of cTns have not been properly investigated; in particular, we do not know the precise mechanisms of release of these molecules from the myocardial cells (MCs) of healthy people and the mechanisms of circulation, and the elimination of cTns from the bloodstream. The main purpose of this manuscript is to systematize information about the biology of cTns, with an emphasis on the metabolism of cTns. The format of this paper, starting with the release of cTns in the blood and concluding with the metabolism/filtration of troponins, provides a comprehensive yet logically easy way for the readers to approach our current knowledge in the framework of understanding the basic mechanisms by which cTns are produced and processed. Conclusions. Based on the analysis of the current literature, the important role of biology and all stages of metabolism (release, circulation, removal) of cTns in laboratory diagnostics should be noted. It is necessary to continue studying the biology and metabolism of cTns, because this will improve the differential diagnosis of MI and i a new application of cTns immunoassays in current clinical practice.

MicroRNA-489 Promotes the Apoptosis of Cardiac Muscle Cells in Myocardial Ischemia-Reperfusion Based on Smart Healthcare. JOURNAL OF HEALTHCARE ENGINEERING 2022; 2022:2538769. [PMID: 35035817 PMCID: PMC8759872 DOI: 10.1155/2022/2538769] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2021] [Revised: 12/01/2021] [Accepted: 12/09/2021] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
With the development of information technology, the concept of smart healthcare has gradually come to the fore. Smart healthcare uses a new generation of information technologies, such as the Internet of Things (loT), big data, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence, to transform the traditional medical system in an all-around way, making healthcare more efficient, more convenient, and more personalized. miRNAs can regulate the proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis of human cells. Relevant studies have also shown that miRNAs may play a key role in the occurrence and development of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI). This study aims to explore the effects of miR-489 in MIRI. In this study, miR-489 expression in a myocardial ischemia-reperfusion animal model and H9C2 cells induced by H/R was detected by qRT-PCR. The release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and the activity of creatine kinase (CK) was detected after miR-489 knockdown in H9C2 cells induced by H/R. The apoptosis of H9C2 cells and animal models were determined by ELISA. The relationship between miR-489 and SPIN1 was verified by a double fluorescence reporter enzyme assay. The expression of the PI3K/AKT pathway-related proteins was detected by Western blot. Experimental results showed that miR-489 was highly expressed in cardiac muscle cells of the animal model and in H9C2 cells induced by H/R of the myocardial infarction group, which was positively associated with the apoptosis of cardiac muscle cells with ischemia-reperfusion. miR-489 knockdown can reduce the apoptosis of cardiac muscle cells caused by ischemia-reperfusion. In downstream targeting studies, it was found that miR-489 promotes the apoptosis of cardiac muscle cells after ischemia-reperfusion by targeting the inhibition of the SPIN1-mediated PI3K/AKT pathway. In conclusion, high expression of miR-489 is associated with increased apoptosis of cardiac muscle cells after ischemia-reperfusion, which can promote the apoptosis after ischemia-reperfusion by targeting the inhibition of the SPIN1-mediated PI3K/AKT pathway. Therefore, miR-489 can be one of the potential therapeutic targets for reducing the apoptosis of cardiac muscle cells after ischemia-reperfusion.

Abstract
Manipulation of microRNA (miRNA) expression has been shown to induce cardiac regeneration, consolidating their therapeutic potential. However, studies often validate only a few miRNA targets in each experiment and hold these targets entirely accountable for the miRNAs' action, ignoring the other potential molecular and cellular events involved. In this report, experimentally validated miRNAs are used as a window of discovery for the possible genes and signaling pathways that are implicated in cardiac regeneration. A thorough evidence search was conducted, and identified miRNAs were submitted for in silico dissection using reliable bioinformatics tools. A total of 46 miRNAs were retrieved from existing literature. Shared targets between miRNAs included well-recognized genes such as BCL-2, CCND1, and PTEN. Transcription factors that are possibly involved in the regeneration process such as SP1, CTCF, and ZNF263 were also identified. The analysis confirmed well-established signaling pathways involved in cardiac regeneration such as Hippo, MAPK, and AKT signaling, and revealed new pathways such as ECM-receptor interaction, and FoxO signaling on top of hormonal pathways such as thyroid, adrenergic, and estrogen signaling pathways. Additionally, a set of differentially expressed miRNAs were identified as potential future experimental candidates.
