Abstract
Myocardial infarction is the main cause of death in patients with coronary heart disease. At present, the main method to treat cardiovascular disease is perfusion therapy. Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion will inevitably lead to reperfusion injury, which is also a major problem in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. It has been reported that mir-451 in microRNA family participates in the protection of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion by regulating AMPK. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of mir-451 on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion in rats by regulating AMPK signaling pathway. Sixty adult male rats were selected to establish myocardial ischemia-reperfusion animal model by ligating and loosening coronary artery. The expression level of mir-451 was regulated by injection of mir-451 virus vector and antibody, and the effect of increased or decreased mir-451 expression level on the activity of AMPK signaling pathway was detected. The myocardial infarct area and apoptosis rate of myocardial tissue were detected after 75 min ischemia-reperfusion. The results showed that when the expression level of mir-451 decreased by 15.7%, the activity index of AMPK signaling pathway was increased by 18.3%, the infarct area was reduced by 22.4%, and the apoptosis rate of myocardial cells was decreased by 25.2%. At the same time, the pathological structure of myocardial tissue was improved. Therefore, mir-451 is an inhibitor gene of AMPK signaling pathway. Reducing the expression of mir-451 can enhance the activity of AMPK signal pathway, and the increase of AMPK signal pathway activity is beneficial to reduce myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury.
