Abstract
Objective: To investigate the role of lncRNA ANRIL in the modulation of myocardial cell apoptosis in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods: AMI mice model was established, and lncRNA ANRIL, IL-33 and ST2 expressions were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) or western blot. The apoptosis of myocardial cells was detected by TUNEL assay. RNA pull-down and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assays were used to confirm the interaction between lncRNA ANRIL and USP17. Results: Compared with sham group, lncRNA ANRIL and ST2 expression levels were up-regulated, and the apoptosis of myocardial cells was increased in heart tissues of AMI group. Compared with normoxia group, the apoptosis of mouse myocardial cell HL-1 and primary murine myocardial cells was increased, and lncRNA ANRIL and ST2 expression levels were up-regulated in hypoxia group. We also found up-regulation of IL-33 in AMI group and hypoxia group. Besides, lncRNA ANRIL affected deubiquitinase USP17-mediated degradation of IL-33. Interfering lncRNA ANRIL reduced the apoptosis of myocardial cells through IL-33/ST2 pathway. In vivo experiments found that interfering lncRNA ANRIL relieved myocardial cell apoptosis and improved heart function in AMI mice. Conclusion: LncRNA ANRIL regulated myocardial cell apoptosis through IL-33/ST2 pathway.
