MicroRNA-497 Inhibits Cardiac Hypertrophy by Targeting Sirt4.

ABSTRACT: Cardiac hypertrophy is an adaptive enlargement of the myocardium in response to overload pressure of heart. From abundant studies, a conclusion is drawn that many microRNAs (miRNAs) are associated with cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure. To investigate the role of microRNA-497 (miR-497) in myocardial hypertrophy, two models were established in this study from cell level to integral level. Cardiac hypertrophy was induced by using angiotensin ? (Ang ?) in vitro and was created by transverse abdominal aortic constriction (TAC) in vivo. There was a significant decrease expression of miR-497 in cardiac hypertrophy models. Moreover, overexpression of miR-497 inhibited myocardial hypertrophy both in vitro and in vivo without heart function variation. In addition, luciferase reporter assays demonstrated that Sirt4 was a direct target gene of miR-497. Taking together, our study indicates that miR-497 modulates cardiac hypertrophy by targeting Sirt4 and may serve as a potential therapeutic substance in the course.

MicroRNA-194 inhibits isoproterenol-induced chronic cardiac hypertrophy via targeting CnA/NFATc2 signaling in H9c2 cells.

Project description:BackgroundThis study explored the effects of microRNA(miR)-194 on chronic cardiac hypertrophy (CH) induced by isoproterenol (ISO). The potential mechanism through regulation of the calcineurin A (CnA)/nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) c2 pathway was investigated in the rat cardiomyoblast cell line H9c2.MethodsH9c2 cells were treated with ISO to induce cardiomyocyte hypertrophy to simulate CH in vitro. The cell surface area was assessed by phalloidin staining. The expression of miR-194, CnA mRNA, and CnA protein were assessed. Furthermore, the cellular localization of the NFATc2 protein after induction of CH was detected. The relationship between miR-194 and the CnA mRNA 3'-untranslated region (UTR) was verified by dual luciferase report assays. By constructing cardiomyocyte cell models with low expression of miR-194 and/or CnA, the effects of miR-194 and CnA on the localization of the NFATc2 protein and cell hypertrophy was investigated. Rescue experiments were conducted to analyze whether overexpression of miR-194 could alleviate the cell hypertrophy induced by ISO.ResultsThe results demonstrated that induction with ISO significantly increased the surface area of H9c2 cells. After induction, the expression of miR-194 decreased, while both CnA mRNA and protein expression increased. Furthermore, the nuclear translocation of NFATc2 was obvious. MiR-194 bound to the 3'-UTR of CnA mRNA and inhibited CnA protein expression. Inhibition of miR-194 expression activated NFATc2 protein expression and increased the H9c2 cell surface area. After CnA expression was disturbed, hypertrophy induced by miR-194 down-regulation was blocked. In addition, overexpression of miR-194 significantly alleviated cell hypertrophy and activation of the CnA/NFATc2 pathway caused by ISO.ConclusionsIn conclusion, increasing the expression of miR-194 can alleviate CH by targeting can and inhibiting the CnA/NFATc2 pathway.

MicroRNA-497 inhibits tumor growth and increases chemosensitivity to 5-fluorouracil treatment by targeting KSR1.

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the leading cancer-related causes of death in the world. Recently, downregulation of microRNA-497 (miR-497) has been observed in CRC tissues. In this study, we found that miR-497 expression levels were downregulated in human CRC specimens compared to the adjacent normal tissues. MiR-497 expression levels were strongly correlated with clinical stages and lymph node metastases. Furthermore, kinase suppressor of ras 1 (KSR1), a known oncogene, was a direct target of miR-497, and KSR1 expression levels were inversely correlated with miR-497 expression levels in human CRC specimens. Overexpression of miR-497 inhibited cell proliferation, migration, invasion and increased chemosensitivity to 5-fluorouracil treatment, whereas forced expression of KSR1 had the opposite effect. Taken together, these results revealed that lower miR-497 levels in human CRC tissues induce KSR1 expression which is associated with CRC cancer occurrence, advanced stages, metastasis and chemoresistance. Lower miR-497 levels may be a potential biomarker for CRC advanced stages and treatment response.

microRNA-497 inhibits cell proliferation and induces apoptosis by targeting YAP1 in human hepatocellular carcinoma.

Project description:microRNAs (miRNAs) function as oncogenes or tumor suppressors in human cancers by targeting mRNAs for degradation and/or translational repression. miR-497 has been proposed as a tumor suppressive miRNA and its deregulation is observed in human cancers. However, the prognostic value of miR-497 and its underlying molecular pathways involved in the initiation and development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are poorly investigated. In the present study, we found that the mean level of miR-497 in HCC tissues was lower than that in adjacent nontumor tissues. Clinical data indicated that low expression of miR-497 was prominently associated with adverse prognostic features of HCC including high serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) level, large tumor size, high Edmondson-Steiner grading and advanced tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) stage. Furthermore, miR-497 was an independent prognostic factor for indicating both 5-year overall survival and disease-free survival of HCC patients. Gain- and loss-of-function studies showed that miR-497 reduced cell proliferation and induced apoptosis in HCC cells. Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) was identified as a direct target of miR-497 in HCC. An inverse correlation between YAP1 and miR-497 expression was observed in HCC tissues. Notably, YAP1 knockdown abrogated the effects of miR-497 deletion on HCC cells with decreased cell proliferation and increased apoptosis. In conclusion, we report that miR-497 is a potent prognostic indicator and may suppress tumor growth of HCC by targeting YAP1.

A cardiac-enriched microRNA, miR-378, blocks cardiac hypertrophy by targeting Ras signaling.

Project description:Understanding the regulation of cardiomyocyte growth is crucial for the management of adverse ventricular remodeling and heart failure. MicroRNA-378 (miR-378) is a newly described member of the cardiac-enriched miRNAs, which is expressed only in cardiac myocytes and not in cardiac fibroblasts. We have previously shown that miR-378 regulates cardiac growth during the postnatal period by direct targeting of IGF1R (Knezevic, I., Patel, A., Sundaresan, N. R., Gupta, M. P., Solaro, R. J., Nagalingam, R. S., and Gupta, M. (2012) J. Biol. Chem. 287, 12913-12926). Here, we report that miR-378 is an endogenous negative regulator of cardiac hypertrophy, and its levels are down-regulated during hypertrophic growth of the heart and during heart failure. In primary cultures of cardiomyocytes, overexpression of miR-378 blocked phenylephrine (PE)-stimulated Ras activity and also prevented activation of two major growth-promoting signaling pathways, PI3K-AKT and Raf1-MEK1-ERK1/2, acting downstream of Ras signaling. Overexpression of miR-378 suppressed PE-induced phosphorylation of S6 ribosomal kinase, pERK1/2, pAKT, pGSK-3β, and nuclear accumulation of NFAT. There was also suppression of the fetal gene program that was induced by PE. Experiments carried out to delineate the mechanism behind the suppression of Ras, led us to identify Grb2, an upstream component of Ras signaling, as a bona fide direct target of miR-378-mediated regulation. Deficiency of miR-378 alone was sufficient to induce fetal gene expression, which was prevented by knocking down Grb2 expression and blocking Ras activation, thus suggesting that miR-378 interferes with Ras activation by targeting Grb2. Our study demonstrates that miR-378 is an endogenous negative regulator of Ras signaling and cardiac hypertrophy and its deficiency contributes to the development of cardiac hypertrophy.

ADAM23 in Cardiomyocyte Inhibits Cardiac Hypertrophy by Targeting FAK - AKT Signaling.

Project description:Background Cardiac hypertrophy has been recognized as an important independent risk factor for the development of heart failure and increases the risk of cardiac morbidity and mortality. A disintegrin and metalloprotease 23 (ADAM23), a member of ADAM family, is involved in cancer and neuronal differentiation. Although ADAM23 is expressed in the heart, the role of ADAM23 in the heart and in cardiac diseases remains unknown. Methods and Results We observed that ADAM23 expression is decreased in both failing human hearts and hypertrophic mice hearts. Cardiac-specific conditional ADAM23-knockout mice significantly exhibited exacerbated cardiac hypertrophy, fibrosis, and dysfunction, whereas transgenic mice overexpressing ADAM23 in the heart exhibited reduced cardiac hypertrophy in response to pressure overload. Consistent results were also observed in angiotensin II -induced neonatal rat cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. Mechanistically, ADAM23 exerts anti-hypertrophic effects by specifically targeting the focal adhesion kinase-protein kinase B (FAK-AKT) signaling cascade. Focal adhesion kinase inactivation by inhibitor ( PF -562271) greatly reversed the detrimental effects in ADAM23-knockout mice subjected to aortic banding. Conclusion Altogether, we identified ADAM23 as a negative regulator of cardiac hypertrophy through inhibiting focal adhesion kinase-protein kinase B signaling pathway, which could be a promising therapeutic target for this malady.

Overexpression of miRNA-497 inhibits tumor angiogenesis by targeting VEGFR2.

Project description:Recent studies reported miR-497 exhibited inhibitory effects in various cancers. However, whether miR-497 is involved in inhibiting angiogenesis, which is critical for tumor growth and metastasis, is still unknown. The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential role of miR-497 in tumor angiogenesis. In this work, cell proliferation and apoptosis analyses were conducted to explore the potential function of miR-497 in HUVECs by using MTT and TUNEL assays. Western blotting (WB) was employed to validate the downstream targets of miR-497. Furthermore, in order to disclose the role of miR-497 on angiogenesis, VEGFR2-luc transgenic mice were treated with miR-497 mimic and applied to monitor tumor angiogenesis and growth by in vivo bioluminescent imaging (BLI). The results demonstrated that overexpression of miR-497 showed inhibitory effects on VEGFR2 activation and downstream Raf/MEK/ERK signal pathways in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, overexpression of miR-497 effectively induced HUVECs apoptosis by targeting VEGFR2 and downstream PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. Furthermore, miR-497 exhibited anti-angiogenesis and anti-tumor effects in the VEGFR2-luc breast tumor model proven by BLI, WB and immunohistochemistry analysis. In summary, miR-497 inhibits tumor angiogenesis and growth via targeting VEGFR2, indicating miR-497 can be explored as a potential drug candidate for cancer therapy.

The microRNA-204-5p inhibits APJ signalling and confers resistance to cardiac hypertrophy and dysfunction.

Project description:BackgroundMicroRNAs regulate cardiac hypertrophy development, which precedes and predicts the risk of heart failure. microRNA-204-5p (miR-204) is well expressed in cardiomyocytes, but its role in developing cardiac hypertrophy and cardiac dysfunction (CH/CD) remains poorly understood.MethodsWe performed RNA-sequencing, echocardiographic, and molecular/morphometric analysis of the heart of mice lacking or overexpressing miR-204 five weeks after trans-aortic constriction (TAC). The neonatal rat cardiomyocytes, H9C2, and HEK293 cells were used to determine the mechanistic role of miR-204.ResultsThe stretch induces miR-204 expression, and miR-204 inhibits the stretch-induced hypertrophic response of H9C2 cells. The mice lacking miR-204 displayed a higher susceptibility to CH/CD during pressure overload, which was reversed by the adeno-associated virus serotype-9-mediated cardioselective miR-204 overexpression. Bioinformatic analysis of the cardiac transcriptomics of miR-204 knockout mice following pressure overload suggested deregulation of apelin-receptor (APJ) signalling. We found that the stretch-induced extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) activation and hypertrophy-related genes expression depend on the APJ, and both of these effects are subject to miR-204 levels. The dynamin inhibitor dynasore inhibited both stretch-induced APJ endocytosis and ERK1/2 activation. In contrast, the miR-204-induced APJ endocytosis was neither inhibited by dynamin inhibitors (dynasore and dyngo) nor associated with ERK1/2 activation. We find that the miR-204 increases the expression of ras-associated binding proteins (e.g., Rab5a, Rab7) that regulate cellular endocytosis.ConclusionsOur results show that miR-204 regulates trafficking of APJ and confers resistance to pressure overload-induced CH/CD, and boosting miR-204 can inhibit the development of CH/CD.

Overexpression of microRNA-99a Attenuates Cardiac Hypertrophy.

Project description:Pathological cardiomyocyte hypertrophy is associated with significantly increased risk of heart failure, one of the leading medical causes of mortality worldwide. MicroRNAs are known to be involved in pathological cardiac remodeling. However, whether miR-99a participates in the signaling cascade leading to cardiac hypertrophy is unknown. To evaluate the role of miR-99a in cardiac hypertrophy, we assessed the expression of miR-99a in hypertrophic cardiomyocytes induced by isoprenaline (ISO)/angiotensin-II (Ang II) and in mice model of cardiac hypertrophy induced by transverse aortic constriction (TAC). Expression of miR-99a was evaluated in these hypertrophic cells and hearts. We also found that miR-99a expression was highly correlated with cardiac function of mice with heart failure (8 weeks after TAC surgery). Overexpression of miR-99a attenuated cardiac hypertrophy in TAC mice and cellular hypertrophy in stimuli treated cardiomyocytes through down-regulation of expression of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR). These results indicate that miR-99a negatively regulates physiological hypertrophy through mTOR signaling pathway, which may provide a new therapeutic approach for pressure-overload heart failure.

Reversing Cardiac Hypertrophy at the Source Using a Cardiac Targeting Peptide Linked to miRNA106a: Targeting Genes That Cause Cardiac Hypertrophy.

Project description:Causes and treatments for heart failure (HF) have been investigated for over a century culminating in data that have led to numerous pharmacological and surgical therapies. Unfortunately, to date, even with the most current treatments, HF remains a progressive disease with no therapies targeting the cardiomyocytes directly. Technological advances within the past two to three years have brought about new paradigms for treating many diseases that previously had been extremely difficult to resolve. One of these new paradigms has been a shift from pharmacological agents to antisense technology (e.g., microRNAs) to target the molecular underpinnings of pathological processes leading to disease onset. Although this paradigm shift may have been postulated over a decade ago, only within the past few years has it become feasible. Here, we show that miRNA106a targets genes that, when misregulated, have been shown to cause hypertrophy and eventual HF. The addition of miRNA106a suppresses misexpressed HF genes and reverses hypertrophy. Most importantly, using a cardiac targeting peptide reversibly linked to miRNA106a, we show delivery is specific to cardiomyocytes.

MicroRNA-214 contributes to Ang II-induced cardiac hypertrophy by targeting SIRT3 to provoke mitochondrial malfunction.

Project description:Reduction of expression and activity of sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) contributes to the pathogenesis of cardiomyopathy via inducing mitochondrial injury and energy metabolism disorder. However, development of effective ways and agents to modulate SIRT3 remains a big challenge. In this study we explored the upstream suppressor of SIRT3 in angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced cardiac hypertrophy in mice. We first found that SIRT3 deficiency exacerbated Ang II-induced cardiac hypertrophy, and resulted in the development of spontaneous heart failure. Since miRNAs play crucial roles in the pathogenesis of cardiac hypertrophy, we performed miRNA sequencing on myocardium tissues from Ang II-infused Sirt3-/- and wild type mice, and identified microRNA-214 (miR-214) was significantly up-regulated in Ang II-infused mice. Similar results were also obtained in Ang II-treated neonatal mouse cardiomyocytes (NMCMs). Using dual-luciferase reporter assay we demonstrated that SIRT3 was a direct target of miR-214. Overexpression of miR-214 in vitro and in vivo decreased the expression of SIRT3, which resulted in extensive mitochondrial damages, thereby facilitating the onset of hypertrophy. In contrast, knockdown of miR-214 counteracted Ang II-induced detrimental effects via restoring SIRT3, and ameliorated mitochondrial morphology and respiratory activity. Collectively, these results demonstrate that miR-214 participates in Ang II-induced cardiac hypertrophy by directly suppressing SIRT3, and subsequently leading to mitochondrial malfunction, suggesting the potential of miR-214 as a promising intervention target for antihypertrophic therapy.
