The Novel LncRNA AK035396 Drives Cardiomyocyte Apoptosis Through Mterf1 in Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury.

ABSTRACT: Background: Myocardial ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is still a major challenge in clinical treatment. The role of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) in the regulation of myocardial I/R injury still needs to be elucidated. Methods: The primary isolated neonatal mousse cardiomyocytes and adult mice were used to construct a myocardial ischemia-reperfusion model. qRT-PCR is used to verify gene expression in myocardial tissue and myocardial cells. The effect of AK035396 in primary cardiomyocytes and mouse myocardium was confirmed by TUNEL staining and in vitro flow cytometry experiments. RNA pulldown and Western blot were used to identify AK035396 interacting proteins. The expression of apoptosis-related proteins was identified by qRT-PCR and Western blot. Results: In vivo and in vitro MIRI models, AK035396 was up-regulated after myocardial infarction. Functional studies have shown that knockdown of AK035396 reduces the apoptosis of primary cardiomyocytes and mouse myocardial tissue. AK035396 directly interacts with Mterf1 and inhibits the level of Mterf1. Further experiments have shown that inhibiting Mterf1 will promote the expression of mitochondrial genes COXII and CYTb and cause cell apoptosis. Conclusion: AK035396 plays an important role in myocardial ischaemia-reperfusion injury by regulating the Mterf1-COXII/CYTb pathway.

Project description:BackgroundIschemia/reperfusion-mediated myocardial infarction (MIRI) is a major pathological factor implicated in the progression of ischemic heart disease, but the key factors dysregulated during MIRI have not been fully elucidated, especially those essential non-coding factors required for cardiovascular development.MethodsA murine MIRI model and RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) were used to identify key lncRNAs after myocardial infarction. qRT-PCR was used to validate expression in cardiac muscle tissues and myocardial cells. The role of Gm18840 in HL-1 cell growth was determined by flow cytometry experiments in vitro. Full-length Gm18840 was identified by using a rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) assay. The subcellular distribution of Gm18840 was examined by nuclear/cytoplasmic RNA fractionation and qRT-PCR. RNA pulldown and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP)-qPCR assays were performed to identify Gm18840-interacting proteins. Chromatin isolation by RNA purification (ChIRP)-seq (chromatin isolation by RNA purification) was used to identify the genome-wide binding of Gm18840 to chromatin. The regulatory activity of Gm18840 in transcriptional regulation was examined by a luciferase reporter assay and qRT-PCR.ResultsGm18840 was upregulated after myocardial infarction in both in vivo and in vitro MIRI models. Gm18840 was 1,471 nt in length and localized in both the cytoplasm and the nucleus of HL-1 cells. Functional studies showed that the knockdown of Gm18840 promoted the apoptosis of HL-1 cells. Gm18840 directly interacts with histones, including H2B, highlighting a potential function in transcriptional regulation. Further ChIRP-seq and RNA-seq analyses showed that Gm18840 is directly bound to the cis-regulatory regions of genes involved in developmental processes, such as Junb, Rras2, and Bcl3.ConclusionGm18840, a novel transcriptional regulator, promoted the apoptosis of myocardial cells via direct transcriptional regulation of essential genes and might serve as a novel therapeutic target for MIRI.
