Pathological cardiac hypertrophy (CH) may lead to heart failure and sudden death. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been documented to play crucial parts in CH. The objective of this research was to discuss the potential along with molecule mechanism of miR-495-3p in CH. In vivo CH model was induced by aortic banding (AB) in rats. Cellular hypertrophy in H9c2 rat cardiomyocytes was stimulated by angiotensin II (Ang II) treatment. Haematoxylin and eosin (HE), echocardiography and immunofluorescence staining were used to examine the alterations in cardiac function. The outcomes showed that miR-495-3p expression was high in rat model as well as in Ang II-stimulated cardiomyocytes. Besides, silenced miR-495-3p attenuated CH both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanically, miR-495-3p bound to pumilio RNA binding family member 2 (Pum2) 3'UTR and silenced its expression. Rescue assays further notarized that Pum2 silence abrogated the inhibitory impacts of miR-495-3p inhibitor on CH. In a word, the present research uncovered that miR-495-3p promoted CH by targeting Pum2. Therefore, miR-495-3p may be a novel therapeutic molecule for this disease.

Background: The fat tail of sheep is an adaptive trait that facilitates their adaptation to harsh natural environments. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been demonstrated to play crucial roles in the regulation of tail fat deposition.
Methods: In this study, miRNA-Seq was employed to investigate the expression profiles of miRNAs during different developmental stages of sheep fat tails and elucidate the functions of differentially expressed miRNAs (DE miRNAs).

To study the effects and mechanisms of activation of human lung fibroblasts (MRC-5) by exosomal RNA hsa _ circ _ 0006357 (circEZH2) derived from non-small cell lung cancer. Western blot was used to detect exosome molecular markers, reverse transcription-quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and cell invasion assays to detect the effect of non-small cell lung cancer-derived exosomes on MRC-5 activation. A circRNA microarray analysis was performed in serum exosomes from patients with non-small cell lung cancer (collected at Ningbo University People's Hospital, September 2023), and levels of circEZH2 were measured in serum exosomes from non-small cell lung cancer by RT-qPCR analysis.

During cortical development, the differentiation potential of neural progenitor cells (NPCs) is one of the most critical steps in normal cortical formation and function. Defects in this process can lead to many brain disorders. MicroRNA dysregulation in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex is associated with risk for a variety of developmental and psychiatric conditions.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the role of lncRNA GAS5 in regulating glucose metabolism and ferroptosis in endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) amidst coronary heart disease (CHD).
- Researchers used various assays to analyze cell behavior, glucose uptake, and markers of ferroptosis, finding GAS5 levels were decreased in CHD patients compared to healthy individuals.
- Results indicate that GAS5 depletion negatively impacts EPC proliferation, migration, and increases apoptosis, while GAS5 enhances glucose metabolism and protects against ferroptosis by influencing the NRF2 and SIX1 pathways.

Background: It has been increasingly recognized that circular RNAs (circRNAs) act as a pivotal factor in the onset and progression of human malignancies. Yet, the specific activities and mechanistic roles of these RNAs in the context of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) are not fully understood.
Methods: Microarray analysis identified a novel LUAD-associated circular RNA, termed hsa_circ_0006357 (also referred to as circEZH2).
