CircRNA-miRNA-mRNA Deregulated Network in Ischemic Heart Failure Patients.

ABSTRACT: Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs), which include circular RNAs (circRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs), regulate the development of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Notably, circRNAs can interact with miRNAs, influencing their specific mRNA targets' levels and shaping a competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNA) network. However, these interactions and their respective functions remain largely unexplored in ischemic heart failure (IHF). This study is aimed at identifying circRNA-centered ceRNA networks in non-end-stage IHF. Approximately 662 circRNA-miRNA-mRNA interactions were identified in the heart by combining state-of-the-art bioinformatics tools with experimental data. Importantly, KEGG terms of the enriched mRNA indicated CVD-related signaling pathways. A specific network centered on circBPTF was validated ex
