In this study, to investigate the effect of overexpression of miR-146a on autophagy of hippocampal neurons in rats with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), 72 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into the sham, ICH, miR-146a agomir, and miR-146a agomir control groups. The ICH model was constructed by injection of collagenase VII. The apoptosis of hippocampal neurons was measured by TUNEL assay. The levels of LC3 and Beclin 1 were analyzed by immunohistochemistry. Mitochondrial autophagy was examined by transmission electron microscopy. The levels of LC3A, LC3B, Beclin 1, Bax, Bcl-2, and cleaved caspase 3 were examined by Western blot. Western blot was also used to evaluate the expression of nuclear factor kappa B signaling pathway-related factors. To examine the effect of autophagy inhibitor (3-methyladenine (3-MA)) on miR-146a-regulated apoptotic protein expression, 30 rats were further divided into the sham, ICH, miR-146a agomir, 3-MA, and miR-146a + 3-MA groups. The levels of Bax, Bcl-2, and cleaved caspase 3 were examined by Western blot. Compared with the sham group, the nerve function scores, brain water content, the percentage of apoptotic cells, and the expression levels of LC3, Beclin 1, Bax, cleaved caspase 3, and p-P65 in the hippocampus of rats in the ICH group were all significantly increased (p < 0.05), whereas the expression levels of miR-146a, Bcl-2, and p-I kappa B alpha were markedly decreased (p < 0.05). Mitochondrial autophagy was also evident. Furthermore, compared with the ICH group, the results of the abovementioned tests in the miR-146a agomir group were reversed. The overexpression of miR-146a inhibited the autophagy of hippocampal neurons in rats with ICH.
