Firstly, we established an in vivo model of cardiac remodeling by transverse aortic narrow (TAC), and then we stimulated a human cardiomyocyte cell line (AC16) and a human cardiac fibroblast cell line (HCF) using 1 μmol/L angiotensin II (Ang II) to establish an in vitro model of cardiac hypertrophy and an in vitro model of myocardial fibrosis, respectively. In all three of the above models, we found a significant decreasing trend of miR-363-5p, suggesting that it plays a key regulatory role in the occurrence and development of cardiac remodeling. Subsequently, overexpression of miR-363-5p significantly attenuated myocardial hypertrophy and myocardial fibrosis in vitro as evidenced by reduced the area of AC16, the cell viability of HCFs, the relative expression of the protein of fetal genes (ANP, BNP, β-MHC) and fibrosis marker (collagen I, collagen III, α-SMA), whereas inhibition of miR-363-5p expression showed the opposite trend. In addition, we also confirmed the targeted binding relationship between miR-363-5p and THBS3 by dual luciferase reporter gene assay, and the expression of THBS3 was directly inhibited by miR-363-5p. Moreover, overexpression of miR-363-5p with THBS3 simultaneously partially eliminated the delaying effect of miR-363-5p on myocardial hypertrophy and myocardial fibrosis in vitro. In conclusion, Overexpression of miR-363-5p attenuated the prohypertrophic and profibrotic effects of Ang II on AC16 and HCF by a mechanism related to the inhibition of THBS3 expression.</p>","PeriodicalId":18724,"journal":{"name":"Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142381175","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cardiac remodeling, as a basic pathological process in heart diseases, is mainly comprised of cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis, as well as cell death which occurs especially in the ischemic cardiomyopathy. Myocardial remodeling has been widely investigated by a variety of animal models, including pressure overload, angiotensin II stimulation, and myocardial infarction. Pressure overload can cause compensatory cardiac hypertrophy at the early stage, followed by decompensatory hypertrophy and heart failure at the end. Recently, RNA sequencing and differentially expressed gene (DEG) analyses have been extensively employed to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of cardiac remodeling and related heart failure, which also provide potential targets for high-throughput drug screenings. In this review, we summarize recent advancements in gene expression profiling, related gene functions, and signaling pathways pertinent to myocardial remodeling induced by pressure overload at distinct stages, ischemia-reperfusion, myocardial infarction, and diabetes.

Excessive accumulation of ROS leads to mitochondrial structure damage, which cannot produce and provide energy.

Furthermore, JB14 overexpression could affect the level of PTEN-induced kinase 1 (PINK1) expression under CCCP-mediated stress.
