Abstract
ABSTRACT Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is characterized by high morbidity and mortality rates. Circular RNAs collectively participate in the initiation and development of AMI. The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of circRbms1 in AMI. Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) was performed to establish an AMI model. RT-qPCR and Western blotting were performed to detect mRNA and analyze protein expression, respectively. The interaction between miR-92a and circRbms1/BCL2L11 was confirmed by luciferase and RNA pull-down assays. circRbms1 is overexpressed in AMI. However, circRbms1 knockdown alleviated H9c2 cell apoptosis and reduced the release of reactive oxygen species. circRbms1 targeted miR-92a, the downregulation of which alleviated the effects of circRbms1 knockdown and increased oxidative stress and H9c2 cell apoptosis. Moreover, circRbms1 sponged miR-92a to upregulate BCL2L11, which modulated the expression of apoptosis-related genes. circRbms1 participated in myocardial I/R injury by regulating the miR-92a/BCL2L11 signaling pathway, which may provide a new strategy for the treatment of AMI.
