Histone deacetylase HDAC4 participates in the pathological process of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury via MEKK1/JNK pathway by binding to miR-206.


ABSTRACT: Histone deacetylases (HDACs) and microRNAs (miRs) have been reported to exert pivotal roles on the pathogenesis of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI). Therefore, the present study was performed to define the underlying role of HDAC4 and miR-206 in the pathological process of MIRI. An IRI rat model was established. The interaction between HDAC4 and the promoter region of miR-206 was determined using ChIP, and that between miR-206 and mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 1 (MEKK1) was determined using dual luciferase reporter gene assay. After the loss- or gain-of-function assay in cardiomyocytes, western blot analysis, RT-qPCR, TUNEL, and ELISA assay were performed to define the roles of HDAC4, miR-206, and MEKK1. Up-regulation of HDAC4 and down-regulation of miR-206 occurred in rat myocardial tissues and cardiomyocytes in MIRI. HDAC4 down-regulation or miR-206 up-regulation contributed to reduced cell apoptosis and the levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and malondialdehyde (MDA), while elevating the superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione (GSH) contents. Meanwhile, HDAC4 silencing promoted the expression of miR-206, which targeted and negatively regulated MEKK1. Then inhibition of JNK phosphorylation reduced the cardiomyocyte apoptosis to alleviate MIRI. Coherently, HDAC4 silencing could up-regulate the expression of miR-206 to reduce cardiomyocyte apoptosis and inhibit oxidative stress, and exerting a protective effect on MIRI via the MEKK1/JNK pathway.
