Upregulation of miR‑335 exerts protective effects against sepsis‑induced myocardial injury.

ABSTRACT: Septicemia is associated with excessive inflammation, oxidative stress and apoptosis, causing myocardial injury that results in high mortality and disability rates worldwide. The abnormal expression of multiple microRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) is associated with more severe sepsis‑induced myocardial injury (SIMI) and miR‑335 has been shown to protect cardiomyocytes from oxidative stress. The present study aimed to investigate the role of miR‑335 in SIMI. An SIMI model was established by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) in mice. An miRNA‑335 precursor (pre‑miR‑335) was transfected to accelerate miR‑335 expression and an miR‑335 inhibitor (anti‑miR‑335) was used to inhibit miR‑335 expression. CLP or sham surgery was performed on pre‑miR‑335, anti‑miR‑335 and wild‑type mice and miR‑335 expression was
