Abstract

Myocardial infarction (MI) is one of the important factors leading to death in today's society. Therefore, to study the related mechanism of MI and reduce myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury is an important link to reduce MI injury. MI mice in vivo and cell model in vitro were constructed. The cardiac function and MI area of mice were detected, and myocardial tissue injury was detected by HE staining. ALAS2 expression in mice myocardial tissue was detected by IHC. The expressions of lncRNA-SNHG8, METTL3, PTBP1 and ALAS2 in myocardial tissue or cardiomyocytes were detected by qRT-PCR assay. MTT assay was used to measured viability of cardiomyocytes. The oxidative stress level in myocardial tissue or cardiomyocytes was detected by ELISA assay and ROS assay. RIP-qPCR and RNA pulldown assays determined the interaction between METTL3 and lncRNA-SNHG8, as well as PTBP1 and ALAS2. lncRNA-SNHG8 knockdown in MI mice was reduced myocardial infarction size, alleviated myocardial tissue injury and oxidative stress, and inhibited ALAS2 expression in myocardial tissue. RNA pulldown and RIP assays showed that lncRNA-SNHG8 binged with PTBP1 and PTBP1 interacted with ALAS2 mRNA. Knockdown of lncRNA-SNHG8, METTL3 or PTBP1 in MI cells enhanced viability of myocardial cells, attenuated ROS release and MDA level, increased SOD level, alleviated oxidative stress. ALAS overexpression attenuated the corresponding effect of knockdown of lncRNA-SNHG8 and/or PTBP1 on MI cells. In sum, our paper is demonstrated for the first time that METTL3 can promote lncRNA-SNHG8 through m6A modification, thereby regulating ALAS2 to induce oxidative stress and aggravate myocardial injury.
