Abstract
- Long-time hypoxia induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis is an important mechanism of myocardial ischemia (MI) injury. Interestingly, long noncoding RNA myocardial infarction-associated transcript (LncMIAT) has been involved in the regulation of MI injury; however, the underlying mechanism by which LncMIAT affects the progression of hypoxia-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis remains unclear. In the present study, hypoxia was found to promote cardiomyocyte apoptosis through an increased expression of LncMIAT in vitro. Biological investigations and dual-luciferase gene reporter assay further revealed that LncMIAT was able to bind with miR-708-5p to upregulate the p53-mediated cell death of the cardiomyocytes. Silencing of LncMIAT or overexpression of miR-708-5p led to a significant reduction in p53-mediated cardiomyocyte apoptosis. The methylated RNA immunoprecipitation (MeRIP)-qPCR results showed that hypoxia exerted its effects on LncMIAT through AKLBH5-N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation and therefore hypoxia was shown to trigger HL-1 cardiomyocyte apoptosis via the m6A methylation-mediated LncMIAT/miR-708-5p/p53 axis. Silencing of AKLBH5 significantly alleviated the m6A methylation-mediated LncMIAT upregulation and p53-mediated cardiomyocyte apoptosis, while promoted miR-708-5p expression. Taken together, the present study highlighted that LncMIAT could act as a key biological target during hypoxia-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis. In addition, it was shown that hypoxia could promote cardiomyocyte apoptosis through regulation of the m6A methylation-mediated LncMIAT/miR-708-5p/p53 signaling axis.
