ABSTRACT
Exploring and discovering novel circRNAs is one of the ways to develop innovative drugs for the diagnosis and treatment of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MI/RI). In the work, some dysregulated circRNAs were found by microarray screening analysis in AC16 cells, and hsa_circRNA_104852 named circMIRIAF was screened, which was up-regulated in AC16 cells damaged by hypoxia-reoxygenation injury (H/RI). The comprehensive analysis of ceRNA network revealed the potential relationship of circMIRIAF/miR-544/WDR12. Then, the results of interaction research confirmed that circMIRIAF acted as sponge of miR-544 to positively regulate WDR12 protein expression. Further, the validation results indicate that miR-544 silencing increased the expression of WDR12, and WDR12 activated Notch1 signal to aggravate H/RI of AC16 cells and MI/RI of mice via regulating oxidative stress and inflammation. Furthermore, silencing circMIRIAF caused the decreased circMIRIAF levels and the increased miR-544 levels in cardiomyocytes, while excessive miR-544 inhibited WDR12 expression to alleviate the disorder. On the contrary, excessive circMIRIAF increased WDR12 expression by adsorbing miR-544 to exacerbate H/RI in AC16 cells. In addition, circMIRIAF siRNA reversed the aggravation of H/RI in cells caused by WDR12 overexpression. Overall, circMIRIAF can serve as a drug target or treating MI/RI, and circMIRIAF could sponge miR-544 and enhance WDR12 expression to aggravate MI/RI, which may provide a novel therapeutic strategy for MI/RI treatment.
