CircRNA ACAP2 Is Overexpressed in Myocardial Infarction and Promotes the Maturation of miR-532 to Induce the Apoptosis of Cardiomyocyte.

ABSTRACT:

Abstract

CircRNA ACAP2 and miR-532 both promotes the apoptosis of cardiomyocytes, which contributes to myocardial infarction (MI). Therefore, ACAP2 and miR-532 may interact with each other to participate in MI. Plasma samples from both patients with MI (n = 65) and healthy controls (n = 65) were subjected to RNA extractions and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction to analyze the expression of ACAP2, mature miR-532, and premature miR-532. Correlations among them were analyzed by Pearson's correlation coefficient. Expression of both mature miR-532 and premature miR-532 in cardiomyocytes with ACAP2 overexpression was analyzed by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction to study the effects of ACAP2 overexpression on the maturation of miR-532. The role of ACAP2 and
