ABSTRACT

The current study aimed to explore the effects of microRNA (miR)-145 on the inflammatory response and oxidative stress (OS) in high glucose (HG)-induced cardiomyocytes, as well as the specific mechanism underlying this action. H9c2 cells were treated with 33 mmol/l glucose (HG group) or cotreated with 24.5 mmol/l mannitol and 5.5 mmol/l glucose (hypertonic group), and the expression levels of miR-145 and ADP ribosylation factor 6 (ARF6) were detected. The cells were transfected with pcDNA3.1-ARF6, miR-145 mimics or corresponding negative controls prior to the assessment of cell survival rate. Levels of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), reactive oxygen species (ROS) and malondialdehyde (MDA), as well as the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx), and the levels of IL-6, TNF-α and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) were subsequently determined. The apoptotic rate of H9c2 cells was examined by flow cytometry. The interaction between miR-145-ARF6 was predicted and confirmed by luciferase reporter assays. In the HG group, miR-145 expression was significantly decreased and ARF6 expression significantly increased compared with controls. Furthermore, the levels of inflammatory factors (IL-6, TNF-α and MCP-1), LDH, ROS and MDA were significantly elevated in the HG group compared with controls. Significantly decreased SOD, CAT and GPx activities and significantly increased numbers of apoptotic cells were observed in the HG group compared with controls. The cells transfected with miR-145 mimics exhibited significantly decreased LDH, ROS and MDA levels, significantly increased antioxidant enzyme activities and significantly decreased apoptotic rates compared with controls, while the opposite results were observed in cells transfected with pcDNA3.1-ARF6. Moreover, co-transfection with miR-145 mimics and pcDNA3.1-ARF6 exacerbated the inflammatory response and OS injury in HG-induced cardiomyocytes compared with cells transfected with miR-145 mimics alone. Furthermore, miR-145 negatively targeted ARF6. miR-145 attenuated the HG-induced inflammatory response and OS injury in cardiomyocytes by negatively regulating ARF6, which may contribute to providing a theoretical basis for the treatment of diabetic cardiomyopathy.
