Abstract
The product of red cell distribution width (RDW) and mean corpuscular volume (MCV) has been identified as an indicator of target organ damage in cases of hypertension. However, the role of the RDW-MCV product in assessing carotid alteration, renal damage, and left ventricular hypertrophy in patients with hypertension has not been elucidated. In this cross-sectional study, a total of 1115 participants with hypertension were included. The RDW and MCV at admission were measured using an automated hematology analyzer. Organ damage was determined by the left ventricular mass index (LVMI), carotid intima-media thickness, and estimated glomerular filtration rate. The prevalence rates of carotid alteration and left ventricular hypertrophy were 57.0% and 18.0%, respectively. A higher RDW-MCV product and RDW were observed in hypertensive patients who developed carotid alteration. After adjusting for potential confounding factors, the correlations of the RDW-MCV product (P = .285) and RDW (P = .346) with carotid alteration were not significant. Moreover, the analysis of variance showed no significant correlation between RDW and LVMI (P = .186). However, the RDW-MCV product was higher in individuals with a high LVMI compared to those with a normal LVMI. Multivariable linear regression analysis revealed that the RDW-MCV product was independently associated with the LVMI (β = 2.519, 95% CI: 0.921-4.116; P = .002), but not the estimated glomerular filtration rate (β = -0.260, 95% CI: -2.031-1.511; P = .773). An elevated RDW-MCV product may be a predictor for left ventricular hypertrophy in patients with hypertension.

Abstract
Background Sirtuin 2 (SIRT2) and galectin-3 have been shown to protect the heart against fibrosis. However, their impacts on radiation-induced myocardial fibrosis (RIMF) remain to be elucidated. To deepen this understanding, the current study sought to explore the effects of SIRT2 and galectin-3 on RIMF and the underlying mechanisms. Methods Galectin-3 knockout mice were obtained, and a radiation-induced heart damage (RIHD) mouse model was induced by local radiation exposure to the heart. Lentivirus transfection was then performed, and heart function, fibrosis of heart tissues, and levels of SIRT2, galectin-3, and fibrosis-related markers collagen type-I/-III and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)2/MMP9 were respectively assessed by echocardiography, hematoxylin-eosin and Masson staining, reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction, Western blot, and immunofluorescence staining. Additionally, Western blot and chromatin immunoprecipitation were used to test H3K27 acetylation levels and the binding of H3K27ac to galectin-3, respectively. Results After radiation exposure, heart tissues from the galectin-3 knockout mice had a smaller fibrotic area compared to normal mice, with reduced expression levels of collagen type-I/-III and MMP2/MMP9. SIRT2 was down-regulated and galectin-3 was up-regulated after RIHD treatment. The histone deacetylase inhibitor sirtinol promoted galectin-3 expression and H3K27 acetylation in a time-dependent manner, and increased H3K27ac enrichment in the galectin-3 promoter. Overexpression of SIRT2 down-regulated H3K27ac, collagen type-I/-III, and MMP2/MMP9 expression levels, and reduced the fibrotic area in mouse heart tissues. However, these effects were reversed by the additional overexpression of galectin-3. Conclusions SIRT2 facilitates deacetylation of H3K27 to inhibit galectin-3 transcription, thus ameliorating RIMF in mice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is not uncommon to encounter retrograde microcatheter-uncrossable lesions in retro-recanalization of Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO) cases, existing solutions were time-consuming or complicated to operate. Therefore, the present study aimed to propose and evaluate the feasibility, safety of a novel technique termed Active Pulling retrograde microcatheter crossing Technique (APT) during retrograde CTO percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS We retrospectively collected retrograde CTO-PCI cases from February 2017 to April 2023, only cases with the retrograde wire successfully crossed the CTO lesion were analyzed. The baseline clinical characteristics, angiographic characteristics, procedural details, and in-hospital major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) were compared. RESULTS A total of 80 CTO cases were divided into the APT group and the non-APT group according to whether the APT was applied in the procedure. The APT group had a higher rate of device success than the non-APT group (100% vs. 85%, P = 0.013), with shorter duration (5.3 ± 3.8 vs. 18.6 ± 5.9 min, P < 0.001) and a smaller number of retrograde microcatheters were used (P < 0.001). In the APT group, the average air kerma radiation exposure was lower (2.7 ± 1.2 vs. 4.3 ± 1.7 Gy, P < 0.001), the fluoroscopy time (69.0 ± 15.0 vs. 88.1 ± 18.9 min, P < 0.001) and the procedure time (116.2 ± 22.2 vs. 131.6 ± 28.7 min, P = 0.009) was shorter than the non-APT group. The technical success rate of both groups reached 100% while the procedure success rate was higher in the APT group than the non-APT group (100% vs. 85%, P = 0.13). CONCLUSIONS The APT is an easy and safe technique that can greatly improve procedural efficiency without adding other instruments, and allows the retrograde microcatheter to quickly crossing the CTO body after successful retrograde wire externalization.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Severe degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) can cause a poor prognosis if left untreated. For patients considered at prohibitive surgical risk, transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) has become an accepted alternative therapy. The DragonFly transcatheter valve repair system is an innovative evolution of the mitral TEER device family to treat DMR. AIMS Herein we report on the DRAGONFLY-DMR trial (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT04734756), which was a prospective, single-arm, multicentre study on the safety and effectiveness of the DragonFly system. METHODS A total of 120 eligible patients with prohibitive surgical risk and DMR ≥3+ were screened by a central eligibility committee for enrolment. The study utilised an independent echocardiography core laboratory and clinical event committee. The primary endpoint was the clinical success rate, which measured freedom from all-cause mortality, mitral valve reintervention, and mitral regurgitation (MR) >2+ at 1-year follow-up. RESULTS At 1 year, the trial successfully achieved its prespecified primary efficacy endpoint, with a clinical success rate of 87.5% (95% confidence interval: 80.1-92.3%). The rates of major adverse events, all-cause mortality, mitral valve reintervention, and heart failure hospitalisation were 9.0%, 5.0%, 0.8%, and 3.4%, respectively. MR ≤2+ was 90.4% at 1 month and 92.0% at 1 year. Over time, left ventricular reverse remodelling was observed (p<0.05), along with significant improvements in the patients' functional and quality-of-life outcomes, shown by an increase in the New York Heart Association Class I/II from 32.4% at baseline to 93.6% at 12 months (p<0.001) and increased Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) score of 31.1±18.2 from baseline to 12 months (p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS The DRAGONFLY-DMR trial contributes to increasing evidence supporting the safety and efficacy of TEER therapy, specifically the DragonFly system, for treating patients with chronic symptomatic DMR 3+ to 4+ at prohibitive surgical risk.

Abstract
MicroRNA (miR)-200c suppresses the initiation and progression of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), the most prevalent head and neck cancer with high recurrence, metastasis, and mortality rates. However, miR-200c-based gene therapy to inhibit OSCC growth has yet to be reported. To develop an miR-based gene therapy to improve the outcomes of OSCC treatment, this study investigates the feasibility of plasmid DNA (pDNA) encoding miR-200c delivered via nonviral CaCO3-based nanoparticles to inhibit OSCC tumor growth. CaCO3-based nanoparticles with various ratios of CaCO3 and protamine sulfate (PS) were used to transfect pDNA encoding miR-200c into OSCC cells, and the efficiency of these nanoparticles was evaluated. The proliferation, migration, and associated oncogene production, as well as in vivo tumor growth for OSCC cells overexpressing miR-200c, were also quantified. It was observed that, while CaCO3-based nanoparticles improve transfection efficiencies of pDNA miR-200c, the ratio of CaCO3 to PS significantly influences the transfection efficiency. Overexpression of miR-200c significantly reduced proliferation, migration, and oncogene expression of OSCC cells, as well as the tumor size of cell line-derived xenografts (CDX) in mice. In addition, a local administration of pDNA miR-200c using CaCO3 delivery significantly enhanced miR-200c transfection and suppressed tumor growth of CDX in mice. These results strongly indicate that the nanocomplexes of CaCO3/pDNA miR-200c may potentially be used to reduce oral cancer recurrence and improve clinical outcomes in OSCC treatment, while more comprehensive examinations to confirm the safety and efficacy of the CaCO3/pDNA miR-200c system using various preclinical models are needed.

Abstract
BNIP3 is reported to be involved in hypoxia-induced mitochondrial defect and cell death in cardiomyocytes. However, little is known about the specific function and molecular mechanism of BNIP3-mediated mitophagy in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI). Herein, this study explored the mechanism regulating BNIP3-modulated mitophagy in MIRI. Rat cardiomyocytes (H9c2 cells) underwent transfection and hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) treatment, followed by cell viability and apoptosis detection. Gain-of-function assays were conducted in rats before MIRI modeling, followed by the monitoring of cardiac changes and the evaluation of cardiac function, myocardial infarction area, and apoptosis in myocardial tissues. The levels of creatine kinase MB (CK-MB), cardiac troponin I (cTnI), lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), p62, and LC3 II/LC3 I were tested in rat serum or H9c2 cells. The co-localization of LC3 and TOMM20 was analyzed. The interaction of BNIP3 with YTHDF2 was assessed. H/R treatment decreased cell viability and p62 and SOD levels while elevating cell apoptosis, the levels of CK-MB, cTnI, LDH, MDA, ROS, and LC3 II/LC3 I, the number of autophagosomes, and the co-localization of LC3 and TOMM20 in cardiomyocytes, which were neutralized by downregulating BNIP3 or upregulating YTHDF2. Moreover, upregulation of YTHDF2 repressed myocardial injury and mitophagy in MIRI rats. Mechanistically, YTHDF2 mediated BNIP3 expression by recognizing methylated BNIP3. Upregulation of BNIP3 counteracted the suppressive effect of YTHDF2 overexpression on H/R-induced injury and mitophagy in cardiomyocytes. The RNA methylation reading protein YTHDF2 ameliorated MIRI by downregulating BNIP3 via m6A modification.

Abstract
Objective: We aimed to determine the epidemiological characteristics of asymptomatic AF in elder community population (≥65 years old) to analyze the detection rate of different screening methods. Methods: The study was a prospective cohort study. The elder (≥65 years old) residents who voluntarily participated in free physical examination in Dalian community were selected. The participants were randomly divided into screening group (including intensive screening group and single screening group) and control group. The control group received interrogation, medical history collection and routine 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) examination. Screening group received an additional single-lead ambulatory ECG equipment worn for 5-7 days. Intensive screening group received two equal-length wearings in 2020 and 2021 respectively, while one screening group only wore once in 2020. Results: Finally 3 340 residents ((70.7±5.0) years old) which consisted of 1 488 males (44.55%) were enrolled. There were 1 945 residents in screening group, including 859 in intensive screening group and 1 086 in one-time screening group. The control group included 1 395 people. Detection rate of asymptomatic AF was significantly higher in screening group than control group (79(4.06%) vs. 24(1.72%), P<0.001). Higher detection rate was found in screening group than control group in AF risk factors (1 or 2-3) subgroups and CHA2DS2-VASc score (2-3 or≥4) subgroups (P<0.05). Additionally, no difference was found between intensive screening group and single screening group (42(4.89%) vs. 37(3.41%), P=0.100). Intensive screening increased detection rate (7(6.93%) vs. 1(0.58%), P=0.009) only in residents those with low thrombosis risk (CHA2DS2-VaSc<2). Conclusions: Screening in elderly (≥65 years old) can significantly improve the detection rate of asymptomatic AF by wearing single lead dynamic ECG device. The rate increased significantly with the increase of risk factors associated with AF by single screening. In addition, repeat screening of the same method may only improve detection rates in the group with low risk thrombotic scores and non-combination of AF risk factors.Screening methods that are appropriate for different populations may require further exploration.

Abstract
Atherosclerotic heart disease (AHD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels is a key strategy to prevent and treat AHD. Inclisiran is a novel siRNA drug that targets proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) gene expression and reduces LDL-C levels with only two or three injections per year. This review summarizes the mechanism, efficacy, safety, and applications of Inclisiran in various populations and settings, based on recent literature. It also compares Inclisiran with other lipid-lowering drugs, especially other PCSK9 inhibitors. We conclude that Inclisiran is a promising lipid-lowering agent that can provide convenience and effectiveness for patients with high cardiovascular risk. However, some challenges and limitations remain for Inclisiran, such as its long-term safety and efficacy, its cost-effectiveness and accessibility, and its interactions and synergies with other drugs. These issues need further investigation and evaluation in future studies.

Abstract
Soil acidification is common in some Chinese tea plantations, which seriously affected growth of tea trees. Hence, it is essential to explore soil remediation in acidified tea plantations for sustainable development of the tea industry. We sought to determine how different fertilizers affect acidified soil and their N transformation in tea plantations. Different fertilizers were used on acidified tea plantation soils for 4 years (2017-2021), and changes in soil pH, indices related to soil N transformation and tea yield were analysed to construct interaction networks of these indices and find which had the largest influence on fertilization. Long-term use of sheep manure reduced soil acidification, increased soil pH, enhanced the number and intensity of N-fixing and ammonifying bacteria, urease, protease, asparaginase and N-acetamide glucose ribosidase activity and nifH gene expression. This treatment reduced the number and intensity of soil nitrifying and denitrifying bacteria, nitrate reductase and nitrite reductase activity, while the expression of amoA-AOA, nirK, nirS, narG and nosZ in turn increased ammonium N content of the soil, reduced nitrate N content, and enhanced tea yield. Topsis index weight analysis showed that ammonium N content in the soil had the largest impact among fertilization effects. Long-term use of sheep manure was beneficial in restoring the balance of the micro-ecosystem in acidified soil. This study provides an important practical basis for soil remediation and fertilizer management in acidified tea plantation soils.

Abstract
This study explored the expression of microRNA (miR)-29b-3p following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and the implication of its downstream Yin Yang 1 (YY1)/interleukin (IL)-1 receptor-associated kinase 1 (IRAK1) pathway in post-vascular injury inflammation. Blood samples were collected for analysis of plasma miR-29b-3p from patients with acute coronary syndrome before surgery, 1 day after PCI, and 30 days after PCI. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCAECs) were transfected with miR-29b-3p mimic/inhibitor or YY1 shRNA and underwent viability tests. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was performed to detect the levels of soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (sVCAM-1), IL-1β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α in serum and cell culture supernatant. Dual-luciferase reporter and RNA/chromatin immunoprecipitation were used to confirm the targeting relationships among miR-29b-3p, YY1, and IRAK1. A rat model of intraluminal injury of the common femoral artery was established to address the role of miR-29b-3p and relevant mechanisms. miR-29b-3p was lowly expressed, and sVCAM-1, IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α were upregulated 1 day after PCI and 24 h after LPS treatment. miR-29b-3p overexpression or YY1 knockdown alleviated LPS-induced inflammatory responses and improved the viability of HCAECs. miR-29b-3p inhibition aggravated LPS-induced inflammatory injury in HCAECs. miR-29b-3p bound to YY1 mRNA and inhibited the expression of YY1 protein. YY1 bound to the IRAK1 promoter and activated the transcription of IRAK1. Upregulation of miR-29b-3p suppressed the inflammatory response after intraluminal injury of the common femoral artery in rats. In conclusion, dysregulation of the YY1/IRAK1 pathway via miR-29b-3p downregulation may be implicated in post-vascular injury inflammation.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the association of baseline venous outflow (VO) profile with futile recanalization in patients with acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation. Methods: The clinical and imaging data of patients presented with large vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation and underwent emergency endovascular treatment at Huashan Hospital from March 2015 to December 2021 were retrospectively included in the study. All patients were assessed by the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) at baseline.Baseline VO profile was determined by a 0-6 semi-quantitative scoring system which assessed opacification of the ipsilateral superficial middle cerebral vein, vein of Labbé and vein of Trolard on single-phase CT angiography (CTA) images. A 90-day telephone follow-up was performed and functional outcome was evaluated by 90 d modified Rankin scale (mRS). Successful recanalization of the occluded artery, defined as final modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction scale (mTICI) 2b-3, was considered to be futile if patients failed to achieve functional independence (90 d mRS 0-2). Univariate analysis and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis were used to explore the optimal cutoff predicting functional indendence. The associations between cortical VO in ischemic area and futile recanalization were evaluated using binary logistic regression analysis and backward linear regression based on Akaike information criterion (AIC). Results: A total of 150 patients met the inclusion criteria, with 92 males (61.3%) and 58 females (38.7%). The median age [M(Q1, Q3)]was 71 (61, 78) years and the median baseline National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score [M(Q1, Q3)]was 15 (11, 18). Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that baseline VO was associated with 90-day functional independence (OR=1.587, 95%CI: 1.185-2.1873). After classifying VO into two categories based on the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, VO≥4 showed an independent association with functional independence (OR=5.133, 95%CI: 1.530-9.361) after adjusting for age, baseline glucose, NIHSS score, baseline infarct core volume, modified Tan (mTan) score, hypoperfusion intensity ratio (HIR), etiological classification, recanalization, presence of any hemorrhagic transformation and final infarct volume. Futile recanalization was observed in 44 (48.4%) of the 91 patients who achieved successful recanalization. Stepwise logistic regression revealed that VO≥4 was an independent protective factor for futile recanalization (OR=0.234, 95%CI: 0.054-0.878). Moreover, in patients with mTICI 2c-3, VO≥4 showed a stronger association with futile recanalization (OR=0.018, 95%CI: 0-0.255). Conclusion: A favorable VO profile at onset protects against futile recanalization in patients with large vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation, and provides a simple and feasible auxiliary method for predicting the prognosis of endovascular therapy in such patients.

Abstract
Background Coronary atherosclerotic heart disease is one of the most serious health and life-threatening diseases. There is no doubt that despite the increasing number of assessment methods used clinically, the prognosis assessment is still not ideal, and newer assessment methods are needed. Objective To investigate the predictive value of quantitative flow ratio (QFR) for adverse events (vessel-oriented composite endpoint events/target lesion failure) in patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Method Eight studies involving 4,173 patients (5,688 vascular lesions) were included. These are studies on the relationship between QFR values and prognosis of adverse cardiac events after PCI. This meta-analysis was performed after quality assessment and data extraction of clinical trials data that met the inclusion criteria. Result Each of the eight studies described the cut-off values for the best predictive ability of post-PCI QFR and the hazard ratio (HR) between QFR values and adverse events, respectively. The pooled HR of these studies was 4.72 (95% CI: 3.29-6.75). Concurrently, lower post-PCI QFR values were associated with the occurrence of individual clinical events (cardiac death/myocardial infarction/target vessel revascularization), with relative risk values of 6.51 (95% CI: 4.96-8.53), 4.83 (95% CI: 3.08-7.57), and 4.21 (95% CI: 2.66-6.68), respectively. Conclusion QFR may have great potential in the assessment of prognosis. It is necessary to measure QFR value after PCI. A lower QFR value after PCI was an important predictor for experiencing adverse events.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to investigate the role of miR-30a-5p in restenosis of rats following vein grafting and the underlying mechanism. METHODS Vein graft rat models were established and perfused with miR-30a-5p antagomir and si-ATG5 to probe the regulation of miR-30a-5p/ATG5 on intimal hyperplasia. Human saphenous vein smooth muscle cells (HSVSMCs) were obtained from the great saphenous veins of patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting and subjected to assays for autophagy, proliferation, and migration after gain and loss of function of miR-30a-5p and/or ATG5. The binding of miR-30a-5p and ATG5 was confirmed by RIP and dual-luciferase reporter assays. RESULTS MiR-30a-5p expression gradually increased, ATG5 expression gradually decreased, and the intima was increasingly thickened during restenosis of grafted veins. Knockdown of miR-30a-5p in rats repressed the restenosis of vein grafts, while a deficiency of ATG5 reversed the effect of miR-30a-5p inhibition. Upregulation of miR-30a-5p enhanced the proliferation and migration of HSVSMCs and inhibited the autophagy, while downregulation of miR-30a-5p or overexpression of ATG5 showed opposite effects. ATG5 is a target gene of miR-30a-5p. CONCLUSION MiR-30a-5p exacerbates vein graft restenosis by repressing ATG5 expression and inhibiting autophagy.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) may cause multiple side effects, which include cardiotoxicity. Hence, to ascertain the impact of thioredoxin reductase 2 (TXNRD2) and cytochrome c, somatic (CYCS) on DOX-induced oxidative stress (OS) in cardiomyocytes and mouse myocardium, this study was implemented. DOX was utilized to treat cardiomyocytes and mice, and TXNRD2 and CYCS expression in cell supernatant and mouse myocardial tissues was detected. TXNRD2 and/or CYCS were overexpressed in DOX-induced cardiomyocytes and mice. In cardiomyocytes, cell viability and the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), malondialdehyde (MDA), and glutathione (GSH) were measured. In mice, pathologic changes of the heart, ejection fraction (EF), fractional shortening (FS), and heart weight (HW) /tibial length (TL) ratio, and the contents of lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB), and cardiac troponin I (cTnI) were analyzed. To assess the binding between TXNRD2 and CYCS, coimmunoprecipitation and glutathione S-transferase pull-down assays were performed. TXNRD2 and CYCS were downregulated in DOX-treated cardiomyocytes and mice. Mechanistically, TXNRD2 interacted with CYCS. Overexpression of TXNRD2 or CYCS augmented viability and SOD, CAT, and GSH levels but reduced ROS and MDA contents in DOX-induced cardiomyocytes, which was further facilitated by simultaneous overexpression of TXNRD2 or CYCS. Moreover, TXNRD2 or CYCS upregulation improved the pathologic changes in myocardial tissues, along with increases in EF, FS, and HW/TL ratio of the heart and SOD, CAT, and GSH levels and decreases in LDH, CK-MB, cTnI, ROS, and MDA levels. TXNRD2 coordinated with CYCS to alleviate DOX-induced OS in cardiomyocytes and mouse myocardium.

Abstract
In this Letter, we study the interaction between a self-sustaining exothermic reaction front propagating in a direction perpendicular to that of gravity and the buoyancy-driven convective flow during frontal polymerization (FP) of a low-viscosity monomer resin. As the polymerization front transforms the liquid monomer into the solid polymer, the large thermal gradients associated with the propagating front sustain a natural convection of the fluid ahead of the front. The fluid convection in turn affects the reaction-diffusion (RD) dynamics and the shape of the front. Detailed multiphysics numerical analyses and particle image velocimetry experiments reveal this coupling between natural convection and frontal polymerization. The frontal Rayleigh (Ra) number affects the magnitude of the velocity field and the inclination of the front. A higher Ra number drives instability during FP, leading to the observation of thermal-chemical patterns with tunable wavelengths and magnitudes.

Abstract
Therapy for patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) has been a controversial topic since the introduction of thrombolytic agents in the 1980s. The use of morphine, fentanyl and lidocaine has increased substantially during this period. However, there is still limited evidence on their advantages and limitations. In this review, the clinical application, as well as future considerations of morphine, fentanyl and lidocaine in patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction were discussed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study risk factors of postoperative acute cerebral infarction (PACI) in patients with type B aortic dissection (TB-AD). METHODS The data of 36 patients with TB-AD and PACI undergoing endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) from Mar 2018 and Mar 2021 were collected as the PACI group retrospectively. The data of 114 TB-AD patients without PACI were collected as the control group retrospectively. The medical history, surgery-related indicators, general data, imaging data and laboratory test results (D-dimer (D-D), preoperative serum creatinine and preoperative white blood cell count) were compared. Then, logistic regression was applied to analyze risk factors for PACI in TB-AD patients. RESULTS The surgery time, blood loss and hospital stay of patients in the PACI group were determined to be obviously higher/longer when comparing to those in the control group. Aortic arch radius of curvature and length of proximal anchoring zone showed no significant difference between the two groups. Pearson correlation analysis indicated that D-D level after surgery was positively related to white blood cell count and serum creatinine level in TB-AD patients. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that operation time, emergency surgery, preoperative D-D and preoperative serum creatinine level were independent risk factors for PACI after EVAR in the patients with TB-AD (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION There are many independent risk factors for PACI after EVAR in patients with TB-AD, and preoperative D-D level and serum creatinine level should be given attention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Frailty is an important geriatric syndrome especially with ageing populations. Frailty can be managed or even reversed with community-based interventions delivered by a multi-disciplinary team. Innovation is required to find community frailty models that can deliver cost-effective and feasible care to each local context. OBJECTIVES We share pilot data from our Geriatric Service Hub (GSH) which is a novel frailty care model in Singapore that identifies and manages frailty in the community, supported by a hospital-based multi-disciplinary team. METHODS We describe in detail our GSH model and its implementation. We performed a retrospective data analysis on patient characteristics, uptake, prevalence of frailty and sarcopenia and referral rates for multi-component interventions. RESULTS A total of 152 persons attended between January 2020 to May 2021. Majority (59.9%) were female and mean age was 81.0 ± 7.1 years old. One-fifth (21.1%) of persons live alone. Mean Charlson Co-morbidity Index was 5.2 ± 1.8. Based on the clinical frailty risk scale (CFS), 31.6% were vulnerable, 51.3% were mildly frail and 12.5% were moderately frail. Based on SARC-F screening, 45.3% were identified to be sarcopenic whilst 56.9% had a high concern about falling using the Falls-Efficacy Scale-International. BMD scans were done for 41.4% of participants, of which 58.7% were started on osteoporosis treatment. In terms of referrals to allied health professionals, 87.5% were referred for physiotherapy, 71.1% for occupational therapy and 50.7% to dieticians. CONCLUSION The GSH programme demonstrates a new local model of partnering with community service providers to bring comprehensive population level frailty screening and interventions to pre-frail and frail older adults. Our study found high rates of frailty, sarcopenia and fear of falling in community-dwelling older adults who were not presently known to geriatric care services.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES As a distinct type of cardiomyopathy, diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is featured as diastolic or systolic cardiac dysfunction in diabetic patients. In order to broaden the understanding of molecular mechanisms in DCM, we intended to explore the mechanism of the interaction between PDK4 protein and Hmgcs2 in high glucose (HG)-induced myocardial damage. METHODS PDK4 and Hmgcs2 expression in the myocardium of diabetes mellitus (DM) model rats and HG-incubated cardiomyocyte line H9C2 was analyzed by western blot analysis. Echocardiography and TUNEL assay were utilized for respective assessment of cardiac structure and function and cardiomyocyte apoptosis in DM rats after silencing PDK4 or/and Hmgcs2. In vitro, the impact of PDK4 and Hmgcs2 on HG-induced cardiomyocyte injuries was identified with cell counting kit-8 and flow cytometry assays, along with detection of LDH release, caspase-3/7 activities, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels. Moreover, a coimmunoprecipitation assay was utilized to test the interaction between PDK4 and Hmgcs2. RESULTS Both PDK4 and Hmgcs2 were highly expressed in the myocardial tissues of DM rats. Mechanistically, PDK4 interacted with Hmgcs2 to upregulate Hmgcs2 expression in HG-induced H9C2 cells. Silencing PDK4 improved cardiac function and reduced cardiomyocyte apoptosis in DM rats. In HG-induced H9C2 cells, PDK4 or Hmgcs2 silencing enhanced cell viability and reduced LDH release, caspase-3/7 activities, cell apoptosis, and ROS and MDA levels, and these trends were further promoted by the simultaneous silencing of PDK4 and Hmgcs2. CONCLUSION In summary, the silencing of PDK4 and Hmgcs2 alleviated HG-induced myocardial injuries through their interaction.

Abstract
Background/Aim Uremic cardiomyopathy (UCM) is a characteristic cardiac pathology that is commonly found in patients with chronic kidney disease. This study dissected the mechanism of SPI1 in myocardial fibrosis and inflammation induced by UCM through S100A8/A9. Methods An UCM rat model was established, followed by qRT-PCR and western blot analyses of SPI1 and S100A8/A9 expression in myocardial tissues. After alterations of SPI1 and S100A8/A9 expression in UCM rats, the blood specimens were harvested from the cardiac apex of rats. The levels of creatine phosphokinase-MB (CK-MB), blood creatinine, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and inflammatory cytokines (interleukin [IL]-6, IL-1β, and tumor necrosis factor-α [TNF-α]) were examined in the collected blood. Collagen fibrosis was assessed by Masson staining. The expression of fibrosis markers [transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1, α-smooth muscle actin (SMA), Collagen 4a1, and Fibronectin], IL-6, IL-1β, and TNF-α was measured in myocardial tissues. Chromatin immunoprecipitation and dual-luciferase reporter gene assays were conducted to test the binding relationship between SPI1 and S100A8/A9. Results S100A8/A9 and SPI1 were highly expressed in the myocardial tissues of UCM rats. Mechanistically, SPI1 bound to the promoter of S100A8/A9 to facilitate S100A8/A9 transcription. S100A8/A9 or SPI1 knockdown reduced myocardial fibrosis and inflammation and the levels of CK-MB, blood creatinine, and BUN, as well as the expression of TGF-β1, α-SMA, Collagen 4a1, Fibronectin, IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-1β in UCM rats. Conclusion SPI1 knockdown diminished S100A8/A9 transcription, thus suppressing myocardial fibrosis and inflammation caused by UCM.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Impacts of molecular pathways have been discussed recently on restenosis after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Hence, this study aimed to explore the impact of calcineurin-like phosphoesterase domain containing 1 (CPPED1) and specificity protein 1 (SP1) on restenosis after PCI. METHODS A carotid balloon injury rat model was established, followed by western blot analysis of SP1 and CPPED1 expression in carotid artery (CA) tissues. After SP1 and CPPED1 were overexpressed, the neointimal hyperplasia and luminal stenosis were assessed. In addition, EPC underwent hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) treatment to construct an endothelial injury cell model. Then, cell proliferation, apoptosis, intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), and Ca2+ concentration were detected with cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8), flow cytometry, Chloromethyl-2'7'-dichlorofluorescein diacetate (CM-H2DCFDA) penetrant, and Fluo-4 AM staining, respectively. The binding relationship between SP1 and CPPED1 was verified by dual-luciferase reporter and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays. RESULTS SP1 and CPPED1 were lowly expressed in the model rats with carotid balloon injury. Mechanistically, SP1 bound to the promoter region of CPPED1 to activate CPPED1 expression. Overexpressing SP1 or CPPED1 lowered neointimal formation and restenosis rate, thus promoting the recovery of carotid balloon injury in rats. Meanwhile, SP1 and CPPED1 upregulation reduced ROS levels, Ca2+ concentration, and apoptosis of EPCs, accompanied by accelerated EPC viability. CONCLUSIONS SP1 or CPPED1 overexpression reduced neointimal formation and restenosis rate in carotid balloon injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The evidence for the comparative effectiveness and safety of ticagrelor versus clopidogrel in older patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is limited, especially in the acute phase of ACS. This study aimed to compare the in-hospital outcomes of ticagrelor versus clopidogrel in older patients with ACS. METHODS Hospitalised ACS patients aged ≥75 years who were recruited to the Improving Care for Cardiovascular Disease in China-ACS project between November 2014 and December 2019 and received aspirin and P2Y12 receptor inhibitors within 24 h after first medical contact were included. The primary outcomes were in-hospital major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and major bleeding. Multivariable Cox regression was performed to evaluate the comparative effectiveness and safety of ticagrelor and clopidogrel. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) and propensity score matching analyses were performed to evaluate the robustness of the results. RESULTS Of 18,244 ACS patients, 18.5% received ticagrelor. Multivariable-adjusted analysis revealed comparable risks of in-hospital MACE between patients receiving ticagrelor and clopidogrel (hazard ratio [HR] 1.12, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.92-1.35). However, ticagrelor use was associated with 45% higher risk of in-hospital major bleeding compared with clopidogrel use (HR 1.45, 95% CI 1.09-1.91). Similar results were found in the IPTW analysis. CONCLUSIONS ACS patients aged ≥75 years receiving ticagrelor during the acute phase had similar risk of in-hospital MACE, but higher risk of in-hospital major bleeding compared with those receiving clopidogrel. More evidence is needed to guide the use of P2Y12 receptor inhibitors during hospitalisation in older patients with ACS. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION URL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov.

Abstract
Bisphenol A (BPA), as an endocrine disruptor derived from petroleum-based chemicals, has been prohibited by several regulatory agencies for use in a wide variety of consumer products. For the sake of reducing human exposure to BPA derivatives and in the context of sustainability, it is far-reaching to develop high-performance and low-toxic materials from bountiful biomass sources. The objective of this work was to synthesize 2 bio-based dimethacrylate monomers, 2,2'-dially-4,4'-dimethoxy-5,5'-diglycerolate acrylatediphenylmethane (BEF-EA) and 2,2'-dially-4,4'-dimethoxy-5,5'-diglycerolate methacrylatediphenylmethane (BEF-GMA), using eugenol as the raw material. The estrogenic activity of bio-based bisphenol 2,2'-dially-4,4'-dimethoxy-5,5'-dihydroxydiphenylmethane (BEF) was evaluated and compared with estrogen and commercial bisphenols. After photopolymerization of the di(meth)acrylates diluted with tri(ethyleneglycol) dimethacrylate (TEGDMA), bio-based visible light-curing materials were prepared, and their properties were systematically investigated. Notably, di(meth)acrylates BEF-GMA and BEF-EA derived from these nonestrogenic bio-based phenols exhibited improved biocompatibility and low viscosity (down to 220-280 Pa.s). BEF-GMA and BEF-EA resin matrix exhibits lower volumetric polymerization shrinkage (about 8.5%), high photopolymerization reactivity (>50% in 60 s), and mechanical properties (fracture energy >5.5 N mm; flexural strength of 87-91 MPa, etc), which were comparable or superior to commercial Bis-GMA. The respective bio-based composites still exhibit adequate properties. Therefore, introducing eugenol-based visible light-curable dimethacrylate monomers into dental materials is a potential strategy to establish green sustainability and biocompatible dental materials without BPA.

Abstract
BackgroundBivalirudin is a common anticoagulant during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI); however, since its application in China, it still lacks comprehensive evaluation of adverse events (AEs) or adverse drug reactions (ADRs) under the real-clinical setting conditions with a large-sample-size population. Therefore, this prospective, multi-center, intensive monitoring study aimed to comprehensively investigate the occurrence and risk factors of AEs and ADRs during PCI with bivalirudin as an anticoagulant.MethodsA total of 3,049 patients who underwent PCI with bivalirudin as anticoagulant from 27 Chinese medical centers were enrolled. Safety data (AEs/ADRs) were collected from hospital admission to 72 h after bivalirudin administration; then, patients were followed up at the 30th day with the safety data collected as well.ResultsA total of 414 (13.58%) patients occurred AEs, among which 31 (1.02%) cases suffered from severe AEs and 8 (0.26%) cases died due to AEs. Importantly, 118 (3.87%) patients occurred bivalirudin related ADRs, among which 7 (0.23%) cases suffered from severe ADRs while no case (0%) died due to ADRs. Of note, 7 (0.23%) patients showed new ADRs, 34 (1.12%) patients experienced bleeding, and 79 (2.59%) patients had thrombocytopenia. Furthermore, age, renal function impairment, CRUSADE high risk stratification independently correlated with total ADRs risk; CRUSADE high risk stratification, emergency operation, full dose bivalirudin independently associated with bleeding risk; age, renal function impairment independently related to thrombocytopenia risk.ConclusionBivalirudin is well-tolerated as an anticoagulant for PCI procedure; meanwhile, older age, renal function impairment, and CRUSADE high risk stratification serve as independent risk factors of bivalirudin related ADRs.

Abstract
The increasing rates of morbidity and mortality caused by ischemic heart disease pose a serious threat to human health. Long non‑coding (lnc)RNA small nucleolar RNA host gene 1 (SNHG1) has a protective effect on the myocardium. In the present study, the role of lncRNA SNHG1 in myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury (MIRI) and the underlying mechanisms were investigated. After hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) induction, the expression levels of lncRNA SNHG1 were detected using reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR. After lncRNA SNHG1 overexpression via cell transfection, cell viability was detected using an MTT assay, apoptotic rates were detected using TUNEL staining, apoptosis‑related protein expression levels were detected using western blotting and respective kits were used to measure the oxidative stress levels. The Encyclopedia of RNA Interactomes database predicted the presence of binding sites between lncRNA SNHG1 and microRNA (miR)‑450b‑5p, and between miR‑450b‑5p and insulin‑like growth factor 1 (IGF1). These interactions were then verified using luciferase reporter assays. Subsequently, the regulatory mechanism underlying the lncRNA SNHG1/miR‑450b‑5p/IGF1 axis in MIRI was investigated by overexpressing miR‑450b‑5p and knocking down IGF1 expression in H/R‑induced cells. Finally, the expression of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway‑related proteins was detected using western blotting. lncRNA SNHG1 expression was significantly downregulated in H/R‑induced AC16 cells. lncRNA SNHG1 overexpression significantly inhibited apoptosis and decreased oxidative stress levels in H/R‑induced AC16 cells, which was mediated via regulation of the miR‑450b‑5p/IGF1 axis and activation of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. Therefore, the present study suggested that activation of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway via the lncRNA SNHG1/miR‑450b‑5p/IGF1 axis inhibited the apoptosis and oxidative stress levels of H/R‑induced AC16 cells.

Abstract
Different from other trauma, the scar and pigmentation formed after healing of burn wound not only hinder beauty but also easily lead to a series of sequential psychological problems, such as depression and anxiety. Music therapy, as a supplementary treatment, is widely used in many fields including medical and health care and psychological regulation. However, affected by factors such as medical resources, the awareness and acceptance of music therapy among burn treatment workers in China are still low. Based on the clinical characteristics of burns, this paper matches the applicability of music therapy with it, summarizes the supplementary application of music therapy in the field of burn treatment, expounds this natural science with both science and aesthetics, and puts forward feasible suggestions for its future development.

Abstract
Independent dose verification with Monte Carlo (MC) simulations is an important feature of proton therapy quality assurance (QA). However, clinical integration of such tools often generates an additional and complex workload for medical physicists. The preparation of the necessary clinical inputs, such as the machine beam model, should therefore be automated. In this work, a methodology for automatic MC commissioning has been devised, validated, and developed into a MATLAB tool for the users of myQA iON, the recent QA platform of IBA Dosimetry. With this workflow, all necessary parameters can easily be tuned using dedicated optimization methods. For the geometrical beam parameters (phase space), the assumption of a single or double Gaussian is made. To model the energy spectrum, a Gaussian function is assumed and parameters are optimized using either MC simulations or a library of pre-computed Bragg peaks. For the absolute dose calibration, commissioning fields can be reproduced with the dose engine to retrieve the necessary parameters. We discuss in a first time the tool efficiency and show that one can optimize all parameters in less than 4 min per energy with excellent accuracy. We then validate a beam model obtained with the tool by simulating homogeneous spread-out Bragg peaks (SOBPs) and patient QA plans previously measured in water. An average range agreement of 0.29 ± 0.34 mm is achieved for the SOBPs while 3%/3 mm local gamma passing rates reach 99.3% on average over all 62 measured patient QA planes, which is well within clinical tolerances.

Abstract
The rapidly changing treatment paradigm for patients with metastatic oncogene-driven lung cancer continues to evolve, and consequently our understanding of the landscape of resistance must also advance. MET amplification is an established and frequent driver of resistance in EGFR-mutant non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Recently, the combination of MET proto-oncogene (MET) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) has shown promise in overcoming this molecularly defined resistance in clinical trials, and this combination strategy is being pursued in ongoing trials. Emerging data also demonstrate MET amplification as a resistance driver to TKI-treated ALK-, RET-, and ROS-1-fusion NSCLC, consistently at the range of 15%, while the resistance profiling data are maturing for other molecular targets. In this review, we discuss MET amplification as a driver of acquired resistance in well-defined molecular subsets of NSCLC, explore the biology behind this mechanism of resistance, and summarize the recently published clinical data, including the proposed combination strategies in the clinic achieving success in overcoming acquired MET amplification-dependent resistance. Understanding mechanisms of resistance in oncogene-driven lung cancer is crucial. MET amplification is a recurrent driver of resistance, across molecularly defined subsets of NSCLC. Overcoming this resistance in clinical trials, using combination strategies, is currently being pursued. We explore the biology behind this mechanism of resistance and summarize recent successes in the clinic.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is a widely used anticancer drug, but its cardiotoxicity largely limits its clinical utilization. Circular RNA spindle and kinetochore-associated protein 3 (circ-SKA3) were found to be differentially expressed in heart failure patients. In this study, we investigated the role and mechanism of circ-SKA3 in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity.The quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and western blot assays were applied to measure the expression of circ-SKA3, microRNA (miR) -1303, and toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). The viability and apoptosis of AC16 cells were analyzed using cell counting kit-8, flow cytometry, and western blot assays. The interaction between miR-1303 and circ-SKA3 or TLR4 was verified using dual-luciferase reporter and RNA immunoprecipitation assays. Exosomes were collected from culture media by the use of commercial kits and then qualified by transmission electron microscopy.The expression of circ-SKA3 and TLR4 was increased, whereas miR-1303 expression was decreased in DOX-treated AC16 cells. DOX treatment promoted cell apoptosis and inhibited cell viability in AC16 cells in vitro, which was partially reversed by circ-SKA3 knockdown, TLR4 silencing, or miR-1303 overexpression. Mechanistically, circ-SKA3 served as a sponge for miR-1303 to upregulate TLR4, which was confirmed to be a target of miR-1303. Additionally, circ-SKA3 contributed to DOX-induced cardiotoxicity through the miR-1303/TLR4 axis. Further studies suggested that circ-SKA3 was overexpressed in exosomes extracted from DOX-mediated AC16 cells, which could be internalized by surrounding untreated AC16 cells.Circ-SKA3 enhanced DOX-induced toxicity in AC16 cells through the miR-1303/TLR4 axis. Extracellular circ-SKA3 was packaged into exosomes, and exosomal circ-SKA3 could function as a mediator in intercellular communication between AC16 cells.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Myocardial infarction (MI) is a common cardiovascular disease, and many circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been found to participate in the pathological process. This study was to research circRNA jumonji and AT-rich interaction domain containing 2 (circJARID2) in MI. MI cell model was established by hypoxia treatment in H9c2 cells. CircJARID2 and microRNA-9-5p (miR-9-5p) levels were examined using real-time polymerase chain reaction. Cell viability detection was performed by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) and 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (Edu) assays. Cell apoptosis was evaluated by flow cytometry and caspase-3 activity assay. Apoptotic markers and B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) interacting protein 3 (BNIP3) were quantified by western blot. Inflammatory cytokines were determined via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The genic interaction was analyzed through dual-luciferase reporter and RNA immunoprecipitation assays. Hypoxia induced the upregulation of circJARID2 expression in H9c2 cells. The hypoxia-induced cell viability inhibition, apoptosis promotion, and inflammatory response were all counterbalanced by knockdown of circJARID2. CircJARID2 interacted with miR-9-5p, and its function in regulating the hypoxia-induced cell injury was also dependent on targeting miR-9-5p. BNIP3 acted as a target gene of miR-9-5p, and circJARID2 had positive effect on BNIP3 expression by binding to miR-9-5p. MiR-9-5p played a protective role for H9c2 cells against the hypoxia-induced injury via targeting BNIP3. CircJARID2 overexpression contributed to the hypoxia-induced H9c2 cell injury by sponging miR-9-5p to upregulate BNIP3 expression, showing a novel molecular network of MI pathomechanism.

Abstract
Long non-coding (lnc)RNAs serve a role in a number of diseases, including different types of cancer and acute myocardial infarction. The aim of the present study was to investigate the protective role of lncRNA small nucleolar RNA host gene 8 (SNHG8) in hypoxia-ischemia-reoxygenation (HI/R)-induced myocardial injury and its potential mechanism of action. Cell viability, proliferation, creatine kinase myocardial band, cell apoptosis and protein expression levels were determined by Cell Counting Kit-8 assay, EdU assay, ELISA, flow cytometry and western blotting, respectively. The association between SNHG8 and microRNA (miR)-335 was confirmed using a dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. The effects of the miR-335 inhibitor transfections had on increasing apoptosis and decreasing H9C2 cell viability were reversed in cells co-transfected with SNHG8 small interfering (si)RNA. Furthermore, it was found that miR-335 could regulate RAS p21 protein activator 1 (RASA1) expression and that transfection with SNHG8 siRNA downregulated RASA1 expression. Silencing of RASA1 protected against HI/R-induced H9C2 cell injury. However, SNHG8 siRNA did not further reduce apoptosis, demonstrating that SNHG8 may act through RASA1, and RASA1 may mediate the protection of SNHG8 siRNA in HI/R myocardial injury. Thus, inhibition of lncRNA SNHG8 alleviated HI/R-induced myocardial damage by regulating miR-335 and RASA1.

Abstract
AIM The present study aimed to assess the benefits of two-stent techniques for patients with DEFINITION criteria-defined complex coronary bifurcation lesions. METHODS AND RESULTS In total, 653 patients with complex bifurcation lesions at 49 international centres were randomly assigned to undergo the systematic two-stent technique (two-stent group) or provisional stenting (provisional group). The primary endpoint was the composite of target lesion failure (TLF) at the 1-year follow-up, including cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction (TVMI), and clinically driven target lesion revascularization (TLR). The safety endpoint was definite or probable stent thrombosis. At the 1-year follow-up, TLF occurred in 37 (11.4%) and 20 (6.1%) patients in the provisional and two-stent groups, respectively [77.8%: double-kissing crush; hazard ratio (HR) 0.52, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.30-0.90; P = 0.019], largely driven by increased TVMI (7.1%, HR 0.43, 95% CI 0.20-0.90; P = 0.025) and clinically driven TLR (5.5%, HR 0.43, 95% CI 0.19-1.00; P = 0.049) in the provisional group. At the 1 year after indexed procedures, the incidence of cardiac death was 2.5% in the provisional group, non-significant to 2.1% in the two-stent group (HR 0.86, 95% CI 0.31-2.37; P = 0.772). CONCLUSION For DEFINITION criteria-defined complex coronary bifurcation lesions, the systematic two-stent approach was associated with a significant improvement in clinical outcomes compared with the provisional stenting approach. Further study is urgently warranted to identify the mechanisms contributing to the increased rate of TVMI after provisional stenting.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Hypoxia leads to insufficient supply of blood and nutrients, which is major incentive for cardiomyocyte injury and apoptosis. Previous studies reported the regulation effects of microRNAs (miRNAs) in myocardial infarction, whereas function and molecular mechanisms of miR-322-5p were still unclear. Therefore, our study focused on the biological role of miR-322-5p in hypoxia-induced cardiac myoblast cells apoptosis and injury. The expression levels of miR-322-5p and cytokine-induced apoptosis inhibitor 1 (CIAPIN1) were measured by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction in cardiac myoblast cells. The 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazol-3-ium bromide (MTT), lactic dehydrogenase, and flow cytometry assays were performed to examine proliferation, injury, and apoptosis of cardiac myoblast cells, respectively. The protein expression levels were evaluated with western blot assay. The relationship between miR-322-5p and CIAPIN1 was confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter analysis. We found that miR-322-5p level was increased in cardiac myoblast cells exposed to hypoxia. In addition, miR-322-5p silencing could weaken injury and apoptosis in cardiac myoblast cells induced by hypoxia; meanwhile, inhibition of miR-322-5p activation of phosphatidylinositol-3 kinases (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT) signal pathway. Besides, CIAPIN1 was a target mRNA of miR-322-5p based on bioinformatics prediction. CIAPIN1 knockdown reversed the effects of miR-322-5p silencing on hypoxic cardiac myoblast cells. Suppression of miR-322-5p protected cardiac myoblast cells against hypoxia-induced injury and apoptosis through regulation of CIAPIN1 expression and PI3K/AKT signal pathway.
