Non-exosomal non-coding RNAs (non-exo-ncRNAs) and exosomal ncRNAs (exo-ncRNAs) have been associated with the pathological development of myocardial infarction (MI). Accordingly, this analytical review provides an overview of current MI studies on the role of plasma non-exo/exo-ncRNAs. We summarize the features and crucial roles of ncRNAs and reveal their novel biological correlations via bioinformatics analysis. The following contributions are made: (1) we comprehensively describe the expression profile, competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network, and "pre-necrotic" biomarkers of non-exo/exo-ncRNAs for MI; (2) functional enrichment analysis indicates that the target genes of ncRNAs are enriched in the regulation of apoptotic signaling pathway and cellular response to chemical stress, etc.; (3) we propose an updated and comprehensive view on the mechanisms, pathophysiology, and biomarker roles of non-exo/exo-ncRNAs in MI, thereby providing a theoretical basis for the clinical management of MI.

This study aimed to explore the intervention effect of Chuanxiong-Chishao herb pair(CX-CS) on a myocardial infarction-atherosclerosis(MI-AS) mouse model and investigate its effect on the expression profile of circular RNAs(circRNAs)/long non-coding RNAs(lncRNAs) in ischemic myocardium and aorta. Sixty male ApoE~(-/-) mice were randomly assigned to a model group, high-, medium-, and low-dose CX-CS groups(7.8, 3.9, and 1.95 g·kg~(-1)), and a positive drug group(metoprolol 26 mg·kg~(-1) and simvastatin 5.2 mg·kg~(-1)), with 12 mice in each group. Male C57BL/6J mice were assigned to the sham group. The mice in the model group and the groups with drug intervention were fed on a high-fat diet for 10 weeks, followed by anterior descending coronary artery ligation. After that, the mice were fed on a high-fat diet for another two weeks to induce the MI-AS model. The mice in the sham group received normal feed, followed by sham surgery without coronary artery ligation. Mice in the groups with drug intervention received CX-CS or positive drug by gavage for four weeks from the 9th week of high-fat feeding, and those in the model group and the sham group received an equal volume of normal saline. Whole transcriptome sequencing was performed on the heart and aorta tissues of the medium-dose CX-CS group, the model group, and the sham group after administration. The results showed that the medium-and high-dose CX-CS groups showed improved cardiac function and reduced myocardial fibrosis area, and the medium-dose CX-CS group showed significantly reduced plaque area. CX-CS treatment could reverse the expression of circRNA_07227 and circRNA_11464 in the aorta of AS model and circRNA expression(such as circRNA_11505) in the heart of the MI model. Differentially expressed circRNAs between the CX-CS-treated mice and the model mice were mainly enriched in lipid synthesis, lipid metabolism, lipid transport, inflammation, and angiogenesis in the aorta, and in angiogenesis, blood pressure regulation, and other processes in the heart. CX-CS treatment could reverse the expression of lncRNAs such as ENSMUST00000162209 in the aorta of the AS model and TCONS_00002123 in the heart of the MI model. Differentially expressed lncRNAs between the CX-CS-treated mice and model mice were mainly enriched in lipid metabolism, angiogenesis, autophagy, apoptosis, and iron death in the aorta, and in angiogenesis, autophagy, and iron death in the heart. In summary, CX-CS can regulate the expression of a variety of circRNAs and lncRNAs, and its intervention mechanism in coronary heart disease may be related to the regulation of angiogenesis and inflammation in ischemic myocardium, as well as lipid metabolism, lipid transport, inflammation, angiogenesis in AS aorta.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the association between the plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) 4G/5G gene polymorphism and the occurrence of myocardial and cerebrovascular infarctions in individuals from Tianjin, China.
METHODSThe PAI-1 genotype was determined using allele-specific polymerase chain reaction (AS-PCR) in 56 myocardial infarction (MI) patients, 54 cerebrovascular infarction (CI) patients and 83 unrelated healthy controls. All subjects' clinical features and plasma PAI-1 activity levels were determined.
RESULTSThe PAI-1 genotype distribution frequency of the single guanine deletion/insertion 4G/5G polymorphism (located -675 bp upstream from the start of transcription) significantly differed between the patients and healthy controls. In the MI group, the 4G/4G-genotype frequency was increased, but the 4G/5G-genotype is decreased when compared to the control group. In the CI group, both the 4G/4G- and 4G/5G -genotypes occurred at a lower frequency than those in the control group (P < 0.001). The plasma PAI-1 activity level in the MI group was lowered as the presence of the 4G allele decreases. In the CI group, the frequency of 5G/5G was much higher than that of the control group (P < 0.001). The plasma PAI-1 activity level in the CI group was elevated as the presence of the 5G allele increased. Furthermore, positive correlation between triglyceride, glucose levels and PAI-1 activity were found in all three groups (P < 0.001).
CONCLUSIONSThe PAI-1 4G/5G gene polymorphism is associated with a higher risk of MI and CI in individuals in Tianjin, China. The deletion/insertion polymorphism is probably an important hereditary risk factor for heart diseases. Moreover, triglyceride and glucose levels of plasma have functional importance in regulating PAI-1 activity.

To explore the action mechanism of Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction in treating myocardial infarction based on network pharmaco-logy and molecular docking. Active components and corresponding targets of Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction were obtained through Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database(TCMSP), and related targets of myocardial infarction were obtained through GeneCards, DisGeNET, and OMIM databases. Then the intersection targets were obtained by integrating the drug targets and disease targets. The "active component-target" network was constructed by Cytoscape software, and protein-protein interaction(PPI) network was drawn using STRING platform. Protein cluster analysis was carried out using MCODE. GO enrichment analysis and KEGG pathway analysis were carried out using DAVID database and ClueGO, and molecular docking was carried out using Autodock Vina and Pymol. Finally, 226 active components of Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction were obtained, 257 corresponding targets, 1 340 targets of myocardial infarction, and 109 drug and disease intersection targets were obtained. From GO enrichment analysis, 208 biological process terms, 38 molecular function terms, and 33 cellular component terms were obtained. From KEGG pathway analysis, NF-κB signaling pathway, IL-17 signaling pathway, HIF-1 signaling pathway, and other related pathways were obtained. The molecular docking results showed that the main active components(quercetin, kaempferol, β-sitosterol, luteolin, stigmasterol and baicalein) of Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction in the treatment of myocardial infarction had good binding properties with the core proteins IL6, ALB, VEGFA, TNF, MAPK3 and CASP3. The results suggested that Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction may play a role in the treatment of myocardial infarction by reducing the inflammatory response, reducing oxidative stress, inhibiting cell apoptosis, and promoting angiogenesis.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the association between matrix metalloproteinase 9 gene (MMP9) -1562C/T polymorphism and myocardial infarction (MI) in Uighur population of Xinjiang.
METHODSA total of 347 patients with MI evidenced by coronary arteriography, and 403 controls free from coronary artery disease with normal angiograms were recruited for the study. Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) was used to detect the -1562C/T functional promoter polymorphism of the MMP9 gene. The relationship between the polymorphism and the severity of coronary arterial stenosis was analyzed.
RESULTSThe results showed that the frequency of CT and TT genotypes in patients with MI (27.67%) was significantly higher than that in controls (14.14%). The frequencies of the -1562T allele were 15.71% and 7.56% in the MI group and the control group respectively (chi-square=24.57, P<0.01). Logistic regression analysis indicated that the T allele carriers (CT+TT) had significantly increased risk of MI compared with the CC carriers (OR=2.009, 95%CI: 1.250-3.230). Individuals carrying the -1562T allele with diabetes mellitus were at an increased risk of MI (OR=3.714, 95%CI: 1.299-10.773). The frequencies of CT and TT genotypes were not significantly different among MI patients with one, two and three or more significantly diseased vessels (chi-square=0.491, P=0.782).
CONCLUSIONThe -1562C/T polymorphism in the MMP9 gene promoter is associated with the susceptibility to MI in the Uighur population of Xinjiang. The T allele might be a risk factor of MI. And there was a coordinated effect between the -1562T allele and diabetes mellitus in the development of MI. The -1562C/T polymorphism may not be a predictor of the severity of coronary atherosclerosis.

OBJECTIVEPlatelet membrane glycoprotein (GP) Ia/IIa complex is the major collagen receptor on platelets. Platelet activation by GP Ia/ IIa dependent adhesion leads to cellular events that catalyze prothrombin conversion and fibrin clot formation. Correlation between the polymorphism of platelet membrane GP Ia gene and myocardial infarction (MI) was explored.
METHODSA total of 137 patient s with myocardial infarction and 175 controls with no history of coronary heart disease, thrombogenic and hemorrhagenic diseases were studied by case-control. Platelet GP I a gene 807 C/T polymorphisms were checked by polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific primers.
RESULTSThere were significant differences in the distribution of T and C alleles between MI and control groups (T:42.70% vs 32.00%, C:57.30% vs 68.00%, P<0.001). No matter among all subjects or among subjects aged CONCLUSIONThe above data suggest that there is a strong association between the presence of GP Ia T allele and MI. T allele ca n be a marker of genetic susceptibility to MI. These need to be substantiated by a large scale and prospective study.

Objective: To define differentially expressed N6-adenylate methylation (m6A) genes in the myocardial tissue of mice with myocardial infarction (MI) and explore its potential impact on the pathological process of MI. Methods: The random number table method was used to divide the eighteen SPF C57BL/6J male mice aged from 8 to 10 weeks into MI group (MI group, n=9) and control group (control group, n=9). Modified m6A genes from the myocardial tissue were detected via methylated RNA immunoprecipitation with the next generation sequencing (MeRIP-seq). We explored methylation modified characteristics, verified mRNA expression and m6A modified level by bioinformatics analysis, qPCR and MeRIP-qPCR. Results: The Heatmap revealed that 901 differentially modified m6A genes between MI and control group, of which 537 genes were upregulated, and 364 genes were downregulated. The principal component analysis affirmed that two groups could be distinguished significantly in terms of m6A gene modification. The characteristic sequence of m6A modification was GGACU and mainly concentrated in the coding sequence. According to the conjoint analysis with RNA-seq and MeRIP-seq, 119 genes expressed simultaneous m6A modification difference and mRNA expression difference. The Venn diagram exhibited the positive and negative correlation between m6A modification and mRNA expression. Besides, the GO enrichment analysis indicated that the genes with m6A differential modification in MI group were mainly involved in heart development and other processes. qPCR verified that Gbp6 was up-regulated, while Dnaja1 and Dnajb1 were down-regulated. MeRIP-qPCR revealed that the m6A modification level of Hspa1b was downregulated. Conclusion: Myocardial infarction induces differential modification of m6A in the mice model. In addition, the genes with m6A modification may be affected by methylation related enzymes, thus participating the pathogenesis of MI by regulating apoptosis and inflammation.
