Abstract:
Long noncoding RNAs have been known to play key roles in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury. This study was conducted to investigate whether upregulation of FGD5-AS1 can improve hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury of cardiomyocytes and its underlying mechanisms. Pc-FGD5-AS1 was used to overexpress FGD5-AS1 in cardiomyocytes. Cholecystokinin octapeptide and flow cytometry assays were performed to detect the effect of FGD5-AS1 on myocardial cell H/R injury. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and luciferase reporter assay were performed to assess the relationship between FGD5-AS1 and microRNA-106a-5p (miR-106a-5p) or miR-106b-5p. In patients with acute myocardial infarction and in H/R cardiomyocytes and ischemia/reperfusion myocardium, the expression levels of FGD5-AS1 were reduced, whereas the expression levels of miR-106a-5p and miR-106b-5p were increased. Overexpression of FGD5-AS1 increased the viability of H/R-treated cardiomyocytes and reduced the levels of apoptosis and creatine kinase-MB. In addition, FGD5-AS1 could bind to miR-106a-5p or miR-106b-5p and showed a mutual inhibitory effect between them. Furthermore, overexpression of miR-106a-5p or miR-106b-5p inhibited the expression of SMAD5. FGD5-AS1 upregulated the expression of SMAD5. In conclusion, FGD5-AS1 may be a potential therapeutic target for myocardial H/R injury, and its cardioprotective effect may be realized by reducing inflammatory response and cell apoptosis.
