摘要

Hyperglycemia results in the formation of reactive oxygen species which in turn causes advanced glycation end products (AGEs) formation, leading to diabetic cardiomyopathy. Our previous study showed that AGE-induced reactive oxygen species-dependent apoptosis is mediated via protein kinase C delta (PKCδ)-enhanced mitochondrial damage in cardiomyocytes. By using microRNA (miRNA) database, miRNA-210 was predicted to target c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), which were previously identified as downstream of PKCδ in regulating mitochondrial function. Therefore, we hypothesized that miR-210 mediates PKCδ-dependent upregulation of JNK to cause cardiac mitochondrial damage and apoptosis following AGE exposure. AGE-exposed cells showed activated cardiac JNK, PKCδ, and apoptosis, which were reversed by treatment with a JNK inhibitor and PKCδ-KD (deficient kinase). Cardiac miR-210 and mitochondrial function were downregulated following AGE exposure. Furthermore, JNK was upregulated and involved in AGE-induced mitochondrial damage. Interestingly, luciferase activity of the miR-210 mimic plus JNK WT-3′-untranslated region overexpressed group was significantly lower than that of miR-210 mimic plus JNK MT-3′UTR group, indicating that JNK is a target of miR-210. Moreover, JNK activation induced by AGEs was reduced by treatment with the miR-210 mimic and reversed by treatment with the miR-210 inhibitor, indicating the regulatory function of miR-210 in JNK activation following AGE exposure. Additionally, JNK-dependent mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis were reversed following treatment with the miR-210 mimic, while the miR-210 inhibitor showed no effect on JNK-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis in AGE-exposed cardiac cells. Taken together, our study showed that PKCδ-enhanced JNK-dependent mitochondrial damage is mediated through the reduction of miR-210 in cardiomyocytes following AGE exposure.
