Aims: Angiogenesis is a harmonized target for poststroke recovery. Therefore, exploring the mechanisms involved in angiogenesis after stroke is vitally significant. In this study, we are reporting a miR-150-based mechanism underlying cerebral poststroke angiogenesis. Methods: Rat models of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) and cell models of oxygen-glucose deprivation were conducted. Capillary density, tube formation, cell proliferation, and cell migration were measured by FITC-dextran assay, matrigel assay, Ki-67 staining, and wound healing assay, respectively. The expression of miR-150 and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was, respectively, measured by RT-PCR and Western blotting. Dual-luciferase assay was conducted to confirm the binding sites between miR-150 and VEGF. Results: We found that miR-150 expression in the brain and serum of rats subjected to cerebral ischemia, and in oxygen-glucose-deprived brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMVECs) and astrocytes. Upregulation of miR-150 expression could decrease vascular density of infarct border zone in rat after MCAO and decrease tube formation, proliferation, and migration of BMVECs. We also found that miR-150 could negatively regulate the expression of VEGF, and VEGF was confirmed to be a direct target of miR-150. Moreover, VEGF mediated the function of miR-150 on tube formation, proliferation, and migration of BMVECs. Conclusions: Our data suggested that miR-150 could regulate cerebral poststroke angiogenesis in rats through VEGF.
