This study reveals the cardioprotective role of circ_0002612 against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MI/RI), and identifies its mechanistic actions. circ_0002612 competitively binds to miR-30a-5p to release the expression of its target gene Ppargc1a, promoting cardiomyocyte viability and suppressing apoptosis. Furthermore, circ_0002612 inhibits the expression of NLRP3, leading to enhanced cardiomyocyte proliferation and reduced apoptosis.
Introduction: Novel mechanistic insights into the effects of circular RNAs (circRNAs) on the physiology and pathology of cardiovascular diseases are under increasingly active investigation. This study defined the cardioprotective role and mechanistic actions of circ_0002612 in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MI/RI). Methods: MI/RI was induced in mice by ligation of the left anterior descending (LAD) artery followed by reperfusion, and the in vitro model was established in cultured cardiomyocytes under hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/ R) conditions. Interaction among circ_0002612, miR-30a-5p, Ppargc1a, and NLRP3 was predicted by bioinformatics analysis and further experimentally identified. Gain- and loss-of-function experiments were performed to evaluate the effect of the circ_0002612/miR-30a-5p/Ppargc1a/NLRP3 axis on the cardiac function and myocardial infarction of I/R-injured mice, as well as viability and apoptosis of H/R-challenged cardiomyocytes. Results: In the myocardial tissues of MI/RI mice, miR-30a-5p was negatively correlated with circ_0002612 or Ppargc1a, but circ_0002612 was positively correlated with the expression of Ppargc1a. circ_0002612 competitively bound to miR-30a-5p to release expression of its target gene Ppargc1a. circ_0002612 promoted cardiomyocyte viability while suppressing the apoptosis by impairing the miR-30a-5p-mediated inhibition of Ppargc1a. Additionally, Ppargc1a inhibited the expression of NLRP3 and consequently facilitated cardiomyocyte proliferation while suppressing cell apoptosis. By inhibiting the expression of NLRP3, circ_0002612 protected mice from MI/RI. Conclusion: Overall, this study demonstrates the cardioprotective role of circ_0002612 against MI/RI, which may be a viable target for MI/RI.
