Abstract:
Objective Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is one of the complications of diabetes, which is closely related to the change of miRNA. In this study, we observed the characteristic expression of miR-26b in the tissues of the C57BL/6J mouse and in the heart, adipose tissue and liver of the ob/ob mouse, and investigated the effect of high glucose (Glu) on the expression of miR-26b in H9C2 cardiomyocytes. Methods Using RT-PCR, we measured the levels of miR-26b in the heart, adipose tissue, liver and other tissues of C57BL/6J and ob/ob mice. H9C2 cardiomyocytes were treated with Glu at 5.5, 15, 25 and 35 mmol/L for 0, 24, 48, 72, 96 and 120 hours, followed by detection of the proliferation of cardiomyocytes by CCK-8 and determination of thelevels miR-26b. Results The expression of miR-26b was the highest in the heart of the C57BL/6J mice, significantly higher than in the cardiac and white adipose tissues of the ob/ob mice (P < 0.05). The proliferation of cardiomyocytes was markedly increased in the 15, 25 and 35 mmol/L Glu groups at 24, 48, 72, 96 and 120 hours as compared with that in the 5.5 mmol/L Glu group (P < 0.05), higher in the 25 than in the 15 mmol/L Glu group at 24 hours (0.74±0.02 vs 0.72±0.01, P<0.05), but lower in the 35 than in the 15 mmol/L Glu group at 48 hours (0.92±0.01 vs 0.94±0.01, P<0.05), in the 25 and 35 mmol/L Glu groups at 96 hours (P < 0.05), in the 35 mmol/L Glu group at 120 hours (1.12±0.02 vs 1.19±0.05, P<0.05), in the 35 than in the 25 mmol/L Glu group at 24 and 48 hours (P<0.05). The expression of miR-26b in the H9C2 cardiomyocytes was significantly down-regulated in the 25 and 35 mmol/L Glu groups in comparison with that in the 5.5 mmol/L Glu group (P<0.05), remarkably lower in the 25 mmol/L Glu group at 96 and 120 hours than at 0 hour (P<0.05). Conclusion High glucose can down-regulate the expression of miR-26b in H9C2 cardiomyocytes, which suggests that miR-26b may participate in the pathogenesis of DCM.
