MiR-32-3p Regulates Myocardial Injury Induced by Microembolism and Microvascular Obstruction by Targeting RNF13 to Regulate the Stability of Atherosclerotic Plaques
This study aimed to explore the molecular mechanism of myocardial protection. The effects of miR-32-3p and ring finger protein 13 (RNF13) on endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-induced apoptosis of A-10 cells and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) were detected using flow cytometry. The effects of miR-32-3p and phenylbutyric acid (PBA) on plaque instability and myocardial tissue injury in rats were investigated after establishment of arterial plaque model and embolization model and treatment with miR-32-3p-antagomir and PBA. RNF13, which was differentially expressed in myocardial infarction, was the direct target gene of miR-32-3p. MiR-32-3p inhibited RNF13 expression and targeted RNF13 to inhibit ER stress-induced cell apoptosis. Furthermore, inhibiting miR-32-3p expression induced arterial plaque instability by reducing survival, increasing pathological lesions in arterial tissue, up-regulating ER stress-related proteins, and regulating the expressions of apoptosis-related proteins in the model rats. However, PBA reversed the effects of miR-32-3p-antagomir on the model rats. MiR-32-3p regulates myocardial injury induced by micro-embolism and micro-vascular obstruction by targeting RNF13 to regulate the stability of atherosclerotic plaques.
