Abstract:
Objective: To investigate the role of miR-19a/b in myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury (R/I) with its clinical significance. Methods: Our research included in 2 parts. Part 1: in H9c2 cells. miR-19a/b expression in H9c2 cells with 10 h hypoxia and 2 h re-oxygenation was detected by real-time PCR, miR-19a/b potential target gene was assessed by luciferase reporter activity assay. Part 2: in natural person. Control group,n=40 healthy subjects and AMI (acute myocardial infarction) group,n=40 relevant patients. Peripheral blood levels of miR-19a/b were detected as Part 1, cTnI were measured by chemiluminescence immune analysis and CK-MB were assessed by immune inhibition method. Results: Part 1: Compared with normal H9c2 cells, miR-19a/b expressions were increased 5.876 times and 2.761 times in H9c2 cells with 10 h hypoxia and 2 h re-oxygenation, bothP<0.01. With respectively transfected miR-19a/b mimic and inhibitor, miR-19a/b expression was up-regulated and down-regulated respectively. miR-19a/b and chromosome-10 deleted phosphatase, tensing homolog gene (PTEN) had the targeting effect. With up-regulated miR-19a/b expression, PTEN level was decreased and with down-regulated miR-19a/b expression, PTEN level was increased. Part 2: Compared with Control group, AMI group had elevated blood level of miR-19a/b,P<0.01. In AMI patients, miR-19a/b was increasing at 0-3 h of chest pain and reaching the peak at 6-12 h; CK-MB enzyme activity and cTnI content were elevating at 2-6 h of onset and reaching the peak at 24 h. Conclusion: miR-19a/b expression was up-regulated by myocardial ischemia reperfusion in H9c2 cells, PTEN was the potential target gene of miR-19a/b. Circulating miR-19a/b might be used as a new non-invasive biological marker for myocardial ischemia R/I diagnosis.
