This study was aimed at determining the roles and functions of lncRNA XIST/miR-545-3p/G3BP2 axis during hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-induced H9C2 cell apoptosis. H9C2 cells were distributed into two groups, the H/R injury and control groups. High-throughput lncRNA sequencing was applied in the determination of differentially expressed lncRNAs between H/R-induced H9C2 cells and normal H9C2 cells. Real-time polymerase chain reactions (RT-PCR) were used to confirm the expression levels of lncRNA XIST in H/R-induced H9C2 cells. H9C2 cells were then transfected with lncRNA XIST recombinant plasmid (lncRNA XIST), sh-LINC XIST, agomiR-545-3p, antagomiR-545-3p, pcDNA-G3BP2, sh-G3BP2, and a corresponding negative control (NC). Bioinformatic analyses revealed that MiR-545-3p was a target for lncRNA XIST. This finding was confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter assay. The degree of cell apoptosis was evaluated by a flow cytometer. RT-PCR and western blot were performed to assess the apoptotic-related proteins in each group. A total of 859 differentially expressed lncRNAs (up-regulated = 502, down-regulated = 357) were identified. LncRNA XIST was found to be down-regulated in H/R-induced H9C2 cells while miR-545-3p was distinctly up-regulated. miR-545-3p was established to be a direct target for LncRNA XIST. LncRNA XIST significantly enhanced the apoptotic rate, while its inhibition suppressed the apoptotic rate. AgomiR-545-3p partially blocked the lncRNA XIST and enhanced the apoptosis of H/R-induced H9C2 cells. Moreover, miR-545-3p was shown to be a direct target for G3BP2. The overexpression of G3BP2 partially reversed the apoptotic effects of miR-545-3p on H/R-induced H9C2 cells. lncRNA XIST/miR-545-3p/GBP2 was found to be an apoptotic regulator in H/R-induced H9C2 cells.

Background: Doxorubicin (DOX) is a chemotherapeutic agent widely used for cancer treatment and has non-negligible cardiotoxicity. Some previous studies have reported that cannabidiol (CBD) has cardioprotective effects. In this study, we evaluated the protective effects of CBD against DOX-induced cardiomyocyte injury, and explored the downstream molecular mechanism.

Metabolic reprogramming, the shifting from fatty acid oxidation to glucose utilization, improves cardiac function as heart failure (HF) progresses. Leptin plays an essential role in regulating glucose metabolism. However, the crosstalk between leptin and metabolic reprogramming is poorly understood.

Purpose: This study aims to investigate whether zinc ion (Zn) alleviates myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) through the MAM-associated signaling pathway and to explore its impact on ERS and calcium overload.
Methods: H9C2 cells were cultured in a DMEM supplemented with 10 % fetal bovine serum and 1 % antibiotic solution. A MIRI model was established through simulated ischemia and reoxygenation with Zn treatment in a complete medium.

The AlO: Cr light-converting materials were successfully synthesized via co-precipitation, resulting in a grain size ranging from 100 to 400 nm. Under excitation wavelengths spanning from 360 to 650 nm, a distinct near-infrared (NIR) emission at 695 nm was observed. Through optimization, it has been established that a Cr doping concentration of 1.

Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury is a significant clinical problem impacting the heart and other organs, such as the kidneys and liver. This study explores the protective effects of oxycodone on myocardial I/R injury and its underlying mechanisms. Using a myocardial I/R model in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats and an oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) model in H9c2 cells, we administered oxycodone and inhibited AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) with Compound C (C.
