LncRNA Foxo6os as a Novel " Scaffold" Mediates MYBPC3 in Combating Pathological Cardiac Hypertrophy and Heart Failure.

ABSTRACT: Heart failure (HF) as the terminal stage of various cardiac diseases, its underlying molecular mechanisms still remain elusive. Emerging evidence have implicated long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a multifaceted role in the progression of cardiac hypertrophy and HF. Here, it is identified that a lncRNA forkhead box O6, opposite strand (Foxo6os) is significantly downregulated in murine HF model induced using transverse aortic constriction (TAC). Knockdown of Foxo6os accelerates cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, reflects as elevated expression of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), and myosin heavy chain 7 (MYH7). Conversely, Foxo6os overexpression can improve cardiac function and alleviate adverse cardiac remodeling. Mechanistically, Foxo6os directly interacts with m
