MiR‑30c reduces myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury by targeting SOX9 and suppressing pyroptosis.

ABSTRACT: MicroRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) are commonly involved in regulating myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury by binding and silencing their target genes. However, whether miRNAs regulate myocardial I/R-induced pyroptosis remains unclear. The present study established an in vivo rat model of myocardial I/R injury and in vitro hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury model in rat primary cardiomyocytes to investigate the function and the underlying mechanisms of miRNAs on I/R injury-induced pyroptosis. RNA sequencing was utilized to select the candidate miRNAs between normal and I/R group. Reverse transcription-quantitative PCR and western blotting were performed to detect candidate miRNAs (miR-30c-5p, also known as miR-30c) and SRY-related high mobility group-box gene 9 (SOX9) expres
