CircERBB2IP promotes post-infarction revascularization via the miR-145a-5p/Smad5 axis.

ABSTRACT: Myocardial infarction is one of the leading diseases causing death and disability worldwide, and the revascularization of damaged tissues is essential for myocardial-injury repair. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are widely involved in physiological and pathological processes in various systems throughout the body, and the role of circRNAs in cardiovascular disease is gaining attention. In this study, we determined that circERBB2IP is highly expressed in the hearts of newborn mice. Silencing or overexpression of circERBB2IP inhibited and promoted angiogenesis in vivo and in vitro, respectively. Mechanistically, the transcription factor GATA4 promotes the production of circERBB2IP. Furthermore, circERBB2IP functioned as an endogenous miR-145a-5p sponge and was able to sequester and repress miR-145a-5p activity, which led to an increased expression level of Smad5. In summary, circERBB2IP can promote angiogenesis after myocardial infarction through the miR-145a-5p/Smad5 axis. These data suggest that circERBB2IP may be a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of myocardial infarction.

Project description:BackgroundBreast cancer (BC) is a prevalent malignancy with complex etiology and varied clinical behavior. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as key regulators in cancer progression, including BC. Among these, lncRNA TDRKH-AS1 has been implicated in several cancers, but its role in BC remains unclear.MethodsWe conducted a comprehensive investigation to elucidate the role of TDRKH-AS1 in BC. Clinical samples were collected from BC patients, and BC cell lines were cultured. Bioinformatics analysis using the starBase database was carried out to assess TDRKH-AS1 expression levels in BC tissue samples. Functional experiments, including knockdown, colony formation, CCK-8, Transwell, and wound-healing assays, were conducted to determine the role of TDRKH-AS1 in BC cell proliferation and invasion. Luciferase reporter and RIP assays were used to examine the interactions between TDRKH-AS1 and miR-134-5p. In addition, the downstream target gene of miR-134-5p, cAMP response element-binding protein 1 (CREB1), was identified and studied using various methods, including RT-qPCR, immunoprecipitation, and rescue experiments. In vivo experiments using mouse tumor xenograft models were conducted to examine the role of TDRKH-AS1 in BC tumorigenesis.ResultsTDRKH-AS1 was found to be significantly upregulated in BC tissues and cell lines. High TDRKH-AS1 expression correlated with advanced BC stages and worse patient outcomes. Knockdown of TDRKH-AS1 led to decreased BC cell proliferation and invasion. Mechanistically, TDRKH-AS1 acted as a sponge for miR-134-5p, thereby reducing the inhibitory effects of miR-134-5p on CREB1 expression. Overexpression of CREB1 partially rescued the effects of TDRKH-AS1 knockdown in BC cells. In vivo studies further confirmed the tumor-promoting role of TDRKH-AS1 in BC.ConclusionsOur study unveiled a novel regulatory axis involving TDRKH-AS1, miR-134-5p, and CREB1 in BC progression. TDRKH-AS1 functioned as an oncogenic lncRNA by promoting BC cell proliferation and invasion through modulation of the miR-134-5p/CREB1 axis. These findings highlighted TDRKH-AS1 as a potential diagnostic biomarker and therapeutic target for BC treatment.
