Myocardium miRNA Analysis Reveals Potential Biomarkers of Sudden Coronary Death in Rats.

ABSTRACT: This study aims to provide potential biomarkers and reveal the molecular mechanism of sudden coronary death (SCD). Rat models of atherosclerotic death (ASD), coronary atherosclerosis (AS), and acute myocardial ischemia (AMI) and sham groups were established via the gavage of high-fat emulsion and left coronary artery ligation. The myocardium was collected, and transcriptome sequencing was performed. Differentially expressed miRNAs (DEmiRNAs) were identified using edeR software. The target genes were predicted using TargetScan, and functional enrichment analysis was performed via KEGG. Then, an miRNA-mRNA interaction network was constructed using Cytoscape. The key miRNAs with biomarker potential were identified using LASSO regression. A total of 217, 224, and 86 DEmiRNAs were identified in
