摘要:

目的 探讨miR-194-5p抑制剂(miR-194-5p antagomir)对2型糖尿病心肌病(DCM)小鼠心肌损伤的保护作用及可能机制。方法 将60只C57BL/6小鼠随机分为正常对照(NC)组、DCM组、DCM+抑制剂阴性对照(DCM+antagomir control)组、DCM+miR-194-5p抑制剂(DCM+miR-194-5p antagomir)组,每组15只。通过高脂饮食联合链脲佐菌素腹腔注射的方式成功构建2型糖尿病小鼠模型。建模成功后,DCM+miR-194-5p antagomir组小鼠按照10 mg/kg的剂量经尾静脉注射溶解于PBS溶液中的miR-194-5p antagomir,DCM+antagomir control组注射同等剂量的溶解于PBS溶液中的antagomir control,每周2次,持续4周。干预结束后12周行心脏超声检测评估心功能;小麦胚芽凝集素(WGA)染色检测心肌细胞横截面积;酶联免疫吸附试验(ELISA)测定心肌组织炎性因子白细胞介素(IL)-6和肿瘤坏死因子(TNF)-α水平;实时荧光定量聚合酶链反应(RT-qPCR)检测miR-194-5p和双特异性磷酸酶9(DUSP9)mRNA表达;透射电镜观察心肌线粒体超微结构;通过生物信息学方法预测miR-194-5p的靶点并进行富集通路分析;双萤光素酶报告基因实验验证miR-194-5p对DUSP9的靶向调控作用;Western blot法检测DUSP9蛋白及丝裂原活化蛋白激酶(MAPK)通路相关分子表达。结果 与NC组相比,DCM组和DCM+antagomir control组左室射血分数(LVEF)和左室短轴缩短率(LVFS)降低,心肌细胞横截面积、凋亡率、炎性因子IL-6和TNF-α水平、磷酸化ERK(p-ERK)、磷酸化p38(p-p38)水平增加(P<0.05),miR-194-5p mRNA表达升高,DUSP9 mRNA和蛋白表达均下降(P<0.05),心肌线粒体超微结构损伤加重。与DCM组和DCM+antagomir control组相比,DCM+miR-194-5p antagomir组LVEF和LVFS增加,心肌细胞横截面积、凋亡率、炎性因子水平、p-ERK、p-p38水平降低(P<0.05),miR-194-5p mRNA表达降低,而DUSP9 mRNA和蛋白表达均升高(P<0.05),心肌线粒体超微结构损伤减轻。生物信息学预测DUSP9是miR-194-5p的潜在靶点,MAPK信号通路居靶基因显著富集的首位。双萤光素酶报告实验证实miR-194-5p可直接靶向DUSP9的3'-UTR。结论 抑制miR-194-5p 可改善DCM小鼠心肌损伤,其机制可能与靶向上调DUSP9并进一步抑制MAPK信号通路有关。

Abstract:

Objective To investigate the protective effect and its potential mechanism of miR-194-5p inhibitor (miR-194-5p antagomir) on myocardial injury in mice with type 2 diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). Methods Sixty C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into the normal control (NC) group, the DCM group, the DCM+antagomir control group and the DCM+miR-194-5p antagomir group (n=15). The DCM model was established by high-fat diet combined with intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin. After successful model establishment, mice in the DCM+miR-194-5p antagomir group were injected via the tail vein with miR-194-5p antagomir dissolved in PBS at a dose of 10 mg/kg, while mice in the control group were injected with the same dose of antagomir control dissolved in PBS, twice a week for 4 weeks. Twelve weeks after the intervention, cardiac function was evaluated by echocardiography. Myocardial cell cross-sectional area was detected by wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) staining. Inflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-6 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α in myocardial tissue were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The expression levels of miR-194-5p and dual-specificity phosphatase 9 (DUSP9) mRNA were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). Myocardial mitochondrial ultrastructure was observed by transmission electron microscopy. The target of miR-194-5p was predicted by bioinformatics methods, and pathway enrichment analysis was performed. The dual-luciferase reporter gene assay was used to verify the targeted regulation of DUSP9 by miR-194-5p. The expression levels of DUSP9 protein and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway-related molecules were detected by Western blot assay. Results Compared with the NC group, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and left ventricular fractional shortening (LVFS) were decreased in the DCM group and the DCM+antagomir control group, and myocardial cell cross-sectional area, apoptosis rate, levels of inflammatory factors IL-6 and TNF-α, phosphorylated ERK (p-ERK) and phosphorylated p38 (p-p38) increased (P<0.05). The expression of miR-194-5p mRNA was up-regulated, while the mRNA and protein expression of DUSP9 were down-regulated (P<0.05), and the myocardial mitochondrial ultrastructure was severely damaged. Compared with the DCM group and the DCM+antagomir control group, LVEF and LVFS were increased, and myocardial cell cross-sectional area, apoptosis rate, inflammatory factor levels, p-ERK and p-p38 were decreased in the DCM+miR-194-5p antagomir group (P<0.05). The expression of miR-194-5p mRNA was down-regulated, while the mRNA and protein expression of DUSP9 were up-regulated (P<0.05), and the myocardial mitochondrial ultrastructural injury was alleviated. Bioinformatics prediction indicated that DUSP9 was a potential target of miR-194-5p, and the MAPK signaling pathway was the most significantly enriched pathway among the target genes. The dual-luciferase reporter assay confirmed that miR-194-5p could directly target the 3'-UTR region of DUSP9. Conclusion Inhibition of miR-194-5p attenuates myocardial injury in DCM mice, likely by targeting DUSP9 for upregulation, thereby suppressing the MAPK signaling pathway.
