KCNQ1OT1 promotes autophagy by regulating miR-200a/FOXO3/ATG7 pathway in cerebral ischemic stroke.

ABSTRACT: Dysregulation of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) is associated with abnormal development and pathophysiology in the brain. Increasing evidence has indicated that ischemic stroke is becoming the most common cerebral disease in aging populations. The treatment of ischemic stroke is challenging, due in part to ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) injury. In this study, we revealed that potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily Q member 1 opposite strand 1 (KCNQ1OT1) was significantly upregulated in ischemic stroke. Knockdown of KCNQ1OT1 remarkably reduced the infarct volume and neurological impairments in transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) mice. Mechanistically, KCNQ1OT1 acted as a competing endogenous RNA of miR-200a to regulate downstream forkhead box O3 (FOXO3) expression, which is a transcriptional regulator of ATG7. Knockdown of KCNQ1OT1 might inhibit I/R-induced autophagy and increase cell viability via the miR-200a/FOXO3/ATG7 pathway. This finding offers a potential novel strategy for ischemic stroke therapy.

Project description:Cardiovascular diseases are approximately three times higher in patients with neurological deficits than in patients without neurological deficits. MicroRNA-126 (MiR-126) facilitates vascular remodeling and decreases fibrosis and is emerging as an important factor in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases and cerebral stroke. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that decreased miR-126 after ischemic stroke may play an important role in regulating cardiac function. Wild-type (WT), specific conditional-knockout endothelial cell miR-126 (miR-126EC-/-), and miR-126 knockout control (miR-126fl/fl) mice were subjected to distal middle cerebral artery occlusion (dMCAo) (n = 10/group). Cardiac hemodynamics and function were measured using transthoracic Doppler echocardiography. Mice were sacrificed at 28 days after dMCAo. WT mice subjected to stroke exhibited significantly decreased cardiac ejection fraction and increased myocyte hypertrophy, fibrosis as well as increased heart inflammation, infiltrating macrophages, and oxidative stress compared to non-stroke animals. Stroke significantly decreased serum and heart miR-126 expression and increased miR-126 target genes, vascular cell adhesion protein-1, and monocyte chemotactic protein-1 gene, and protein expression in the heart compared to non-stroke mice. MiR-126EC-/- mice exhibited significantly decreased cardiac function and increased cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, fibrosis, and inflammatory factor expression after stroke compared to miR-126fl/fl stroke mice. Exosomes derived from endothelial cells of miR-126EC-/- (miR-126EC-/-EC-Exo) mice exhibited significantly decreased miR-126 expression than exosomes derived from miR-126fl/fl (miR-126fl/fl-EC-Exo) mice. Treatment of cardiomyocytes subjected to oxygen glucose deprivation with miR-126fl/fl-EC-Exo exhibited significantly decreased hypertrophy than with miR-126EC-/-EC-Exo treatment. Ischemic stroke directly induces cardiac dysfunction. Decreasing miR-126 expression may contribute to cardiac dysfunction after stroke in mice.
