Effects of hawthorn leaves flavonoids on angiotensin Ⅱ-induced cardiac hypertrophy by regulating miR-21a-5p
Objective To explore the effect and mechanism of hawthorn leaves flavonoids(HLF)on angiotensin Ⅱ(Ang Ⅱ)-induced myocardial hypertrophy.Methods The H9c2 cells were divided into control group(normal culture),model group(100 nmol·L-1 Ang Ⅱ for 24 h),experimental-L,-M,-H groups(received 100 nmol·L-1 Ang Ⅱ for 24 h,then treated with 25,50 and 100 mg·L-1 HLF for 24 h,respectively),anti-miR-NC and anti-miR-21a-5p groups(transfected with anti-miR-NC and anti-miR-21a-5p,then treated with 100 nmol·L-1 Ang Ⅱ for 24 h),miR-NC+high-dose and miR-21a-5p+high-dose group(transfected with miR-NC and miR-21a-5p mimics,then treated with 100 nmol·L-1 Ang Ⅱ for 24 h+100 mg·L-1 HLF for 24 h).The cell viability was detected by cell counting kit-8.The cell apoptosis was measured by flow cytometry.The expression levels of miR-21a-5p was assessed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction.The expression levels of cyclooxygenase-2(COX2)and prostaglandin E2(PGE2)was measured by Western blot.Results The cell viabilities of control,model group experimental-H groups were 1.03±0.09,0.51±0.05 and 0.93±0.08;cell apoptosis rates were(7.69±0.61)％,(23.04±1.82)％and(9.43±0.71)％;the expression levels of miR-21a-5p were 1.00±0.09,2.43±0.18 and 1.09±0.08;the relative expression levels of COX2 protein were 0.42±0.03,0.85±0.08 and 0.40±0.04;the relative expression levels of PGE2 protein were 0.34±0.03,0.75±0.07 and 0.35±0.03;the differences of above indexes were statistically significant between the model group and the control and experimental-H groups(all P＜0.05).The cell viabilities of anti-miR-NC,anti-miR-21a-5p,miR-NC+high dose and miR-21a-5p+high dose groups were 0.52±0.04,1.12±0.08,0.94±0.09 and 0.57±0.04;the cell apoptosis rates were(23.04±1.82)％,(9.86±0.73)％,(9.47±0.64)％and(24.96±1.94)％;the expression levels of miR-21a-5p were 1.00±0.10,0.43±0.04,1.00±0.09 and 2.12±0.18;the relative expression levels of COX2 protein were 0.86±0.05,0.39±0.04,0.41±0.03 and 0.78±0.07;the relative expression levels of PGE2 protein were 0.74±0.06,0.38±0.07,0.36±0.02 and 0.71±0.05.Compared the anti-miR-21a-5p group with the anti-miR-NC group,compared the miR-21a-5p+high-dose group with the miR-NC+high-dose group,the differences of above indexes were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).Conclusion HLF can inhibit Ang Ⅱ-induced myocardial hypertrophy by regulating the expression of miR-21a-5p and COX2/PGE2 pathway.
