ABSTRACT: Background
Exosomes derived from cardiac microvascular endothelial cells (CMECs) under hypoxia can mediate cardiac repair functions and alleviate pyroptosis and oxidative stress during ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. This study is aimed at investigating the effect and mechanism of miR-27b-3p underlying hypoxic CMECs-derived exosomes against I/R injury.Methods
CMECs were isolated from the left ventricle of Sprague-Dawley rats, followed by culturing under hypoxic conditions or pretreatment with the miR-27b-3p inhibitor. CMECs-derived exosomes were added into H9C2 cells before hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) or injected into the rat heart before I/R injury. An in vivo I/R injury model was established by ligating and releasing the left anterior descending coronary artery.
