As multiple imaging modalities cannot reliably diagnose cardiac tumors, the molecular approach offers alternative ways to detect rare ones. One such molecular approach is CRISPR-based diagnostics (CRISPR-Dx). CRISPR-Dx enables visual readout, portable diagnostics, and rapid and multiplex detection of nucleic acids such as microRNA (miRNA).

Noncoding RNAs are important for regulation of cardiac hypertrophy. The function of MALAT1 (a long noncoding mRNA), miR-181a, and HMGB2; their contribution to cardiac hypertrophy; and the regulatory relationship between them during this process remain unknown. In the present study, we treated primary cardiomyocytes with angiotensin II (Ang II) to mimic cardiac hypertrophy.

Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury causes cardiac dysfunction through several mechanisms including the irregular expression of some long noncoding RNA. However, the role of SNHG12 in myocardial I/R injury remains unclear. Here, we found the increase of the SNHG12 level in hypoxia-reoxygenation (H/R)-injured-H9c2 cells.

Methods: Electronic databases will be searched, including PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, CNKI, CBM, VIP, and Wanfang Data. Patients with AMI complicated by renal insufficiency treated with PCI will be included.
