Abstract Background Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) is one of the leading causes of human death. Nod-like receptor protein-3 (NLRP3) inflammasome signaling pathway involved in the pathogenesis of MIRI. However, the upstream regulating mechanisms of NLRP3 at molecular level remains unknown. Purpose This study investigated the role of microRNA330-5p (miR-330-5p) in NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated MIRI and the associated mechanism. Methods Mice underwent 45 min occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery followed by different times of reperfusion. Myocardial miR-330-5p expression was examined by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and miR-330-5p antagomir and agomir were used to regulate miR-330-5p expression. To evaluate the role of miR-330-5p in MIRI, Evans Blue (EB)/2, 3, 5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining, echocardiography, and immunoblotting were used to assess infarct volume, cardiac function, and NLRP3 inflammasome activation, respectively. Further, in vitro myocardial ischemia-reperfusion model was established in cardiomyocytes (H9C2 cell line). A luciferase binding assay was used to examine whether miR-330-5p directly bound to T-cell immunoglobulin domain and mucin domain-containing molecule-3 (TIM3). Finally, the role of miR-330-5p/TIM3 axis in regulating apoptosis and NLRP3 inflammasome formation were evaluated using flow cytometry assay and immunofluorescence staining. Results Compared to the model group, inhibiting miR-330-5p significantly aggravated MIRI resulting in increased infarct volume (58.09±6.39% vs. 37.82±8.86%, P<0.01) and more severe cardiac dysfunction (left ventricular ejection fraction [LVEF] 12.77%±6.07% vs. 27.44%±4.47%, P<0.01; left ventricular end-diastolic volume [LVEDV] 147.18±25.82 vs. 101.31±33.20, P<0.05; left ventricular end-systolic volume [LVESV] 129.11±30.17 vs. 74.29±28.54, P<0.05). Moreover, inhibiting miR-330-5p significantly increased the levels of NLRP3 inflammasome related proteins including caspase-1 (0.80±0.083 vs. 0.60±0.062, P<0.05), interleukin (IL)-1β (0.87±0.053 vs. 0.79±0.083, P<0.05), IL-18 (0.52±0.063 vs. 0.49±0.098, P<0.05) and tissue necrosis factor (TNF)-α (1.47±0.17 vs. 1.03±0.11, P<0.05). Furthermore, TIM3 was confirmed as a potential target of miR-330-5p. As predicted, suppression of TIM3 by small interfering RNA (siRNA) ameliorated the anti-miR-330-5p-mediated apoptosis of cardiomyocytes and activation of NLRP3 inflammasome signaling pathway (Figure 1). Conclusion Overall, our study indicated that miR-330-5p/TIM3 axis involved in the regulating mechanism of NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Objectives: Paraoxonases (PON) gene family consists of three proteins PON1, PON2, and PON3. PON2 is an intracellular membrane-associated protein that is widely expressed in vascular cells and many tissues. At the subcellular level, PON2 is localized to both the ER and mitochondria, and protects against oxidative stress. Hypothesis: The aim of this study was to investigate the role of PON2 in myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury. Methods: PON2 deficient (PON2-/-) and WT male mice were subjected to in-vivo ischemia/reperfusion injury. The left anterior descending coronary artery was occluded for 30 min followed by 24 hr of reperfusion. The infarct size, mitochondrial calcium retention capacity (CRC) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation were measured. The expression of C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP), GSK3b and phosphate GSK3b protein were examined by Western Blot. The number of animals was 5-7/group and data were expressed as mean±SEM. T test were used for statistical analysis. Probability values <0.05 were considered statistically significant. Results: The infarct size was ~2 fold larger in PON2 deficient mice compared to WT mice (p<0.05). The threshold for opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) in response to calcium overload was much lower in PON2-/- mice compared with WT mice (173±19 in PON2-/-, 250±41 in WT, nmol/mg-mitochondrial protein, p<0.05). The ROS production was ~2 fold higher in isolated cardiac mitochondria from PON2-/- mice compared with WT mice (p<0.05). ER stress protein CHOP increased significantly in PON2-/- mice compared to WT mice (normalized to WT: 1±0.05 in WT, 1.66±0.08 in PON2-/-, p<0.001). Phospho-GSK3b level was significantly downregulated in in PON2-/- mice compared to WT mice (pGSK3b/GSK3b normalized to WT: 1±0.06 in WT 0.67±0.08 in PON2-/-, p<0.05). Conclusions: PON2 regulates myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury via inhibiting the opening of mPTP, which is associated with reduced mitochondria ROS production, deactivation of ER stress signaling CHOP and GSK3b.
