Abstract
Introduction
Previous studies have reported that protein-coding genes account for only a small proportion of the genome, while the larger remaining part includes genes that are either not transcribed or are transcribed as non-coding RNA (1,2). Currently, the function of non-coding RNA merits further investigation. Generally, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) do not encode proteins and have a length of at least 200 nucleotides (3). Research has confirmed the involvement of lncRNAs in the process of transcription and post-transcription in tumor cells (4–6); however, the mechanisms of lncRNA action in myocytes have received relatively limited attention.
In 2006, myocardial infarction-associated transcript (MIAT) was identified as an lncRNAs that confers a risk of myocardial infraction (7). MIAT is also known as retinal non-coding RNA 2, AK028326 or Gomafu (8). Subsequent studies have reported that MIAT participates in a variety of diseases and cellular processes, including myocardial infarction, microvascular dysfunction (9), paranoid schizophrenia (10), neurogenic commitment (11) and the formation of nuclear bodies (12). However, only a limited number of studies have examined MIAT in myocyte hypertrophy (13,14). MIAT was reported to suppress microRNA (miR)-150 expression in cardiomyocytes (14). Furthermore, previous studies have demonstrated that cardiomyocyte hypertrophy is modulated by miR-150 via its regulatory effect on the expression of the transcriptional co-activator P300 (15). However, it remains unclear whether MIAT is involved in the pathway of miR-150-5p/P300. Therefore, the present study investigated the involvement of MIAT in hypertrophy in vitro and in vivo through cell and animal models.
Materials and methods
Animal care and use
This study conformed to the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals as published by the National Institutes of Health (NIH publication no. 85-23; revised 1996). All procedures were performed in accordance with the Ethical Standards of the Committee on Animal Experimentation of China Medical University (project identification code, SCXK-2013-0001; Shenyang, China), and were approved by the Ethical Standards of the Committee on Animal Experimentation of the First Hospital of China Medical University (no. 2017010). Healthy male specific-pathogen-free C57BL/6J mice (age, 8 weeks; weight, 19–21 g) were purchased from the Laboratory Animal Center of China Medical University, and cared for as reported previously (16). Mice were kept in a 12 h light-dark cycle, temperature-controlled (22±2°C) and humidity-controlled (55±5%) environment, and fed a standard chow diet for at least 1 week before experimentation.
Animal procedures and echocardiography
Mice were randomized into two groups, and intraperitoneally injected with 20 µg/kg of isoproterenol (ISO; diluted with 0.9% NaCl; n=4) or vehicle (0.9% NaCl; n=4) twice a day for 7 days. Transthoracic echocardiography was performed in conscious mice under isofluorane anesthesia (1% isoflurane; 0.6-liter flow of O2) using a Vevo 2100 imaging system (FUJIFILM VisualSonics Inc., Toronto, Canada). B and M-mode images were obtained, and other data were collected from each mouse group prior to and following the injection week. For obtaining the left ventricular images, the cursor was positioned at the level just posterior to the chordae tendinae, perpendicular to the interventricular septum and left ventricular posterior wall. Left ventricular posterior wall dimensions at diastole (LVPWd) and interventricular septal thickness at diastole (IVSd) were measured from the left ventricle-left ventricular internal dimension at diastole.
The mice were then sacrificed and weighed, subsequently the hearts were harvested, rinsed and weighted, and the tibias were measured. Ventricles were either stored in TRIzol reagent (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc., Waltham, MA, USA) for RNA extraction or radio immunoprecipitation assay lysis buffer (RIPA) for protein extraction.
Histological analyses
Excised mice hearts were immediately fixed in 10% neutral buffered formalin for 24 h at room temperature after a brief rinse with cold PBS, followed by dehydration and embedding in paraffin wax. Left ventricular sections (4 µm) were cut and stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) to measure cardiomyocyte cross-sectional area. Briefly, 4-µm microtome sections were deparaffinized with xylene and rehydrated through graded concentrations of ethanol (100, 95 and 80%), followed by staining with hematoxylin for 4 min at room temperature. Subsequently, slides were rinsed in deionized water and dipped in 0.25% acidic ethanol for 2 sec. Following washing with deionized water, the slides were immersed in eosin for 2 min at room temperature. Slides were then rinsed thoroughly in three changes of absolute alcohol. Finally, the slides were washed with xylene and then mounted in Permount.
Histology images were obtained with a Leica DM6000 microscope and a DFC420 C camera (Leica Microsystems GmbH, Wetzlar, Germany; magnifications, ×10 and 40). The cardiomyocyte cross-sectional area per nucleus was measured. The selection of cardiomyocytes for measurement was based on clearly defined sarcolemma and associated round nuclei. Cross-sectional areas in over 200 randomly chosen cardiomyocytes from at least 16 fields per group were evaluated using ImageJ software (version 1.48, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA).
Primary culture of neonatal rat ventricular myocytes (NRVMs) and treatment
NRVMs were isolated as previously described (17). Briefly, newborn Sprague-Dawley rats (1–3-days-old) were sacrificed, their hearts were removed and the atria were immediately separated. Cold Hank’s equilibrium salt solution with no Ca2+ and Mg2+ (Gibco; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) was used to store the ventricle tissues. Subsequent to transferring the ventricles to trypsin-0.125% EDTA (Invitrogen; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) and storing overnight at 4°C (16–20 h), collagenase II (Worthington Biochemical Corporation, Lakewood, NJ, USA) was used for further digestion at 37°C for 30 min in a shaking water bath. Isolated cells were prepared in an uncoated flask at 37°C to remove cardiac fibroblasts, and cells were harvested from the supernatants after 1.5 h. NRVMs were seeded in plating medium containing 45% Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM), 45% M199 medium, 10% fetal bovine serum, 100 U/ml penicillin and 100 µg/ml streptomycin (all obtained from Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) for 24 h at 37°C. The following day, the plating medium was replaced by maintenance medium containing 50% DMEM, 50% M199 without serum, 100 U/ml penicillin and 100 µg/ml streptomycin, and incubated for an additional 24 h at 37°C prior to being used for experimentation. NRVMs were incubated with or without 10 µM ISO for 24 h.
Cell transfection
MIAT siRNA (si-MIAT) and the negative control siRNA (si-NC) were purchased from GenePharma Co., Ltd. (Shanghai, China). Their sequences were as follows: Negative control siRNA, 5′-UUCUCCGAACGUGUCACGUTT-3′ (sense) and 5′-ACGUGACACGUUCGGAGAATT-3′ (antisense); MIAT siRNA, 5′-GGUGUUAAGACUUGGUUUCTT-3′ (sense) and 5′-GAAACCAAGUCUUAACACCTT-3′ (antisense). NRVMs were transfected with 100 nM MIAT siRNA or negative control for 6 h using Lipofectamine® 3000 (Invitrogen; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) according to manufacturer instructions. Briefly, NRVMs were seeded into a 6-well plate at 6×105 cells per well in 2 ml plating medium for 24 h at 37°C, and then incubated in serum-free maintenance medium for at least 24 h. When 60–70% confluence was reached, transfected NRVMs were then treated with or without ISO (10 µm) for 48 h at 37°C. Cells were collected after 48 h for quantification of mRNA and miRNA expression.
Immunofluorescence staining and measurement of NRVM cell area
NRVMs were stained with phalloidin conjugated with Alexa Fluor 594, and nuclei were stained with DAPI (all from Invitrogen; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.). Slides were visualized using an Olympus AX70 Provis fluorescence microscope at a ×40 magnification (Olympus Corporation, Tokyo, Japan). In each group, 30 cells were counted, and the fields-of-view of cells were randomly selected under each condition. The surface area was estimated by the ratio of control cells. Each experiment was repeated in triplicate.
RNA isolation and reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR)
Total RNA from the tissue and NRVMs was extracted using TRIzol reagent (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) according to manufacturer’s protocol. RNAs with an OD260/OD280 ratio in the range of 1.80–2.20 were used for downstream assays, and 1 µg RNA from each sample was reverse transcribed into cDNA using a high-capacity cDNA RT kit (Applied Biosystems; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.). The RT conditions were conducted as per the manufacturer’s protocols. Subsequently, qPCR was performed to quantify the mRNA expression levels using Real-Time SYBR® Green PCR Master Mix (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc., Hercules, CA, USA) on the CFX384 Touch Real-Time PCR Detection system (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc.), with GAPDH serving as an internal control. Expression levels were analyzed using the 2−ΔΔCq method (18). Primers sequences used in the project are listed in Table I.
For miRNA analysis, cDNA was synthesized using the TaqMan™ MicroRNA Reverse Transcription kit (Applied Biosystems; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.). The miR-150-5p expression were determined by the TaqMan™ MicroRNA assay (cat. no. A25576, Applied Biosystems; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) and Taqman 2X universal PCR master mix (cat. no. 4304437, Applied Biosystems; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) on the CFX384 Touch Real-Time PCR Detection System (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc.), with U6 small nuclear RNA (U6) assay (cat. no. 4427975, Applied Biosystems; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) serving as an internal control. Expression levels were analyzed using the 2−ΔΔCq method (18).
Western blot analysis
Samples from mice and NRVMs were lysed in radio immunoprecipitation assay lysis buffer (RIPA, cat. no. 9806, Cell Signaling Technology, Inc., Danvers, MA, USA) with protease inhibitors. Protein concentrations were then quantified using a bicinchoninic acid assay kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.). Cell lysate (20 µg protein) was isolated with 10% sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and the protein was transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride membranes. The membranes were subsequently blocked using 5% BSA for 1 h at room temperature, and incubated with atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) primary antibody (cat. no. ab189921; 1:2,000; Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA) overnight at 4°C. The membrane was also incubated with GAPDH (cat. no. 5174; 1:20,000; Cell Signaling Technology, Inc.) for 1 h at room temperature. Subsequently, a horseradish peroxidase-linked anti-rabbit IgG secondary antibody (cat. no. 7074; 1:20,000; Cell Signaling Technology, Inc.) was then used incubated for 1 h at room temperature. An enhanced chemiluminescence reagent (SuperSignal™ West Femto Maximum Sensitivity Substrate; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) was used to visualize the bands, and semi-quantification of western blot bands was conducted by comparison against the GAPDH bands using ImageJ software (version 1.48, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA).
Statistical analysis
Data are reported as the mean ± standard error. Comparisons between groups were analyzed by double-sided Student’s t-test, or with analysis of variance and Turkey’s test for experiments with more than two subgroups. P<0.05 was considered to indicate a statistically significant difference. Statistical analysis was performed using IBM SPSS software (version 24; IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA).
Results
MIAT, miR-150-5p and P300 expression levels are associated with cardiomyocyte hypertrophy induced by ISO in vivo
ISO was injected in mice in order to build a cardiac hypertrophy model. Mice were injected 20 mg ISO/kg twice per day over 7 days, and cardiac hypertrophy in the ISO and control group mice was analyzed. Echocardiography, histopathology and morphometric analysis were conducted to confirm that ISO induced cardiac hypertrophy. Firstly, we performed echocardiography to measure the cardiac parameters in B and M modes after 7 day’s ISO injection. The IVSd and LVPWd in ISO mice were significantly higher than in control mice (0.843±0.03 vs. 0.69±0.19, P<0.05; 0.80±0.26 vs. 0.63±0.21, P<0.05; respectively; Fig. 1A and B). In addition, heart anatomy of the ISO and control mice was conducted. As presented in Table II, after the heart weight (HW) was normalized to tibia length (TL), a higher HW/TL ratio was observed in ISO mice than that of control mice (0.083±0.007 vs. 0.108±0.0014, P<0.05). Furthermore, histological analysis revealed that cardiomyocyte cross-sectional area was signifi-cantly increased in ISO-induced group compared with the control group (1±0.08 vs. 2.6±0.81, P<0.05, respectively; Fig. 2A and B).
To investigate whether MIAT and miR-150-5p were involved in the development of cardiac hypertrophy in vivo, MIAT and miR-150-5p expression levels in heart tissue were assessed by RT-qPCR. As shown in Fig. 3, the expression levels of ANP and BNP were higher in the ISO group (Fig. 3A). The protein expression levels of ANP were also analyzed, which revealed a significant increase in the ISO group compared with in the control group (Fig. 3B). Additionally, MIAT expression levels were significantly increased in the ISO group compared with control groups (Fig. 3C). miR-150 expression levels were significantly decreased in ISO group compared with control group (Fig. 3D). Conversely, the expression levels of P300 in the ISO group were ~5-fold higher in comparison with that of the control group (Fig. 3E). The results of the present study suggested that MIAT, miR-150-5p and P300 may be involved in the hypertrophic process of myocytes and affect the cardiac function in vivo.
MIAT, miR-150-5p, and P300 expression is associated with cardiomyocyte hypertrophy induced by ISO in vitro
Since ISO was observed to lead to myocyte hypertrophy in vivo, the effect of ISO in NRVMs was also examined in vitro. NRVMs were incubated for 24 h in the presence or absence of 10 µM ISO, and their surface areas were then measured. As shown in Fig. 4, the myocyte size was increased in the group treated with ISO compared with that in the control group. Furthermore, the expression levels of ANP and BNP, biomarkers of cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, were observed to be significantly upregulate in the ISO group by using RT-qPCR and western blotting (Fig. 5A and B).
Subsequently, MIAT expression was assessed in ISO-treated NRVMs. As shown in Fig. 5, it was determined that the level of MIAT was significantly increased in cardiomyocytes with ISO-induced hypertrophy, suggesting that MIAT was associated with hypertrophy (Fig. 5C). Furthermore, miR-150-5p expression was also assessed, and it was observed that miR-150-5p was markedly decreased in ISO-induced NRVMs (Fig. 5D). Additionally, compared with in the control group, P300 expression levels were significantly increased in NRVMs treated with ISO (Fig. 5E). These results suggested that MIAT, miR-150-5p, and P300 expression may be associated with cardiomyocyte hypertrophy induced by ISO in vitro.
MIAT may upregulate P300 expression by suppression of miR-150-5p
Since MIAT and miR-150-5p were observed to be connected with hypertrophy in the aforementioned results, it was then hypothesized that the pathological effect of MIAT in cardiac hypertrophy may be associated with miR-150-5p. To test this hypothesis, we measured ANP, BNP, P300 and miR-150 expression in NRVMs by RT-qPCR after transfecting NRVMs with si-MIAT (Fig. 6). The results revealed that MIAT expression levels were downregulated in NRVMs following transfection with si-MIAT for 48 h (Fig. 6A). Furthermore, the NRVMs were treated with or without ISO following transfection with si-NC or si-MIAT, which demonstrated a significant decrease in the expression levels of ANP and BNP within si-MIAT cells than that of si-NC cells (Fig. 6B). In addition, miR-150-5p expression was significantly increased in si-MIAT cells compared with in si-NC cells, (Fig. 6C). Similar results with the expression levels of P300 expression (Fig. 6D). These results indicated that MIAT may upregulate the expression of ANP, BNP and P300 expression by suppressing miR-150-5p in NRVMs.
Discussion
Previous studies have demonstrated that lncRNAs are correlated with cardiac diseases (19–21); however, few studies have focused on the effect of lncRNAs in cardiac hypertrophy. MIAT is an lncRNA isolated as a candidate gene for myocardial infarction and is expressed predominantly in the heart and brain tissues (8). It has been reported that the abnormal expression of MIAT is involved in cell proliferation, apoptosis and migration in numerous diseases, including in myocardial infarction, microvascular dysfunction and diabetes (7,22,23). However, whether the lncRNA MIAT has a regulatory effect on hypertrophy remains known.
The present study attempted to investigate the effect of MIAT in cardiac hypertrophy and explore the possible underlying mechanisms. The study findings were as follows: i) MIAT was upregulated by ISO, as demonstrated in vivo and in vitro; ii) subsequent to the silencing of MIAT, the expression levels of ANP and BNP decreased in ISO-treated NRVM cardiomyocytes, demonstrating the possible association between MIAT and hypertrophy; and iii) MIAT silencing was associated with increased miR-150-5p and decreased P300 expression levels in hypertrophic NRVMs.
It has been indicated that miR-150 mediates the function of MIAT, and that MIAT may function as a regulator of miR-150 (24). Thus, as expected, MIAT silencing in the current study increased the expression of miR-150-5p in myocytes and decreased P300 expression. Conversely, ISO treatment suppressed miR-150-5p and enhanced P300 expression in NRVMs. These results suggested the involvement of the MIAT/miR-150-5p/P300 network in cardiac hypertrophy; P300 may also be a downstream target of MIAT.
The importance of P300 in the development of cell proliferation and differentiation is well-known (25–27). By binding specifically to phosphorylated CREB protein, P300 mediates the regulation of the cAMP gene (28,29). Previous studies have reported that P300 contains a bromodomain and is involved in interleukin-6 signaling (30,31). This gene has been identified as potentially serving an important role in the regulation of hypoxia-induced genes (32,33). Furthermore, the P300 protein may activate transcription by binding to transcription factors; thus, P300 is also known as a transcriptional coacti-vator (34–36). Previous studies have demonstrated that miR-150 regulates the expression of the transcriptional co-activator P300 (37,38). Accordingly, the present study identified that P300 was a downstream target of MIAT/miR-150-5p.
In conclusion, the results of the present study confirmed that the lncRNA MIAT was associated with the miR-150-5p/P300 signaling pathway in cardiac hypertrophy, providing novel insights for understanding the function of lncRNAs in the pathogenesis of cardiac hypertrophy.
