چکیده انگلیسی
The objective of the study was to elucidate the mechanism by which microRNA-34a (miR-34a) influences heart development and participates in the pathogenesis of congenital heart disease (CHD) by targeting NOTCH-1 through the Notch signaling pathway. Forty D7 pregnant mice were recruited for the purposes of the study and served as the CHD (n = 20, successfully established as CHD model) and normal (n = 20) groups. The positive expression of the NOTCH-1 protein was evaluated by means of immunohistochemistry. Embryonic endocardial cells (ECCs) were assigned into the normal, blank, negative control (NC), miR-34a mimics, miR-34a inhibitors, miR-34a inhibitors + siRNA-NOTCH-1, siRNA-NOTCH-1, miR-34a mimics + NOTCH-1 OE and miR-34a mimics + crispr/cas9 (mutant NOTCH-1) groups. The expressions of miR-34a, NOTCH-1, Jagged1, Hes1, Hey2 and Csx in cardiac tissues and ECCs were determined by both RT-qPCR and western blotting methods. MTT assay and flow cytometry were conducted for cell proliferation and apoptosis measurement. A dual luciferase reporter assay was applied to demonstrate that NOTCH-1 was the target gene of miR-34a. In comparison to the normal group, the expressions of miR-34a, Jagged1, Hes1 and Hey2 displayed up-regulated levels, while the expressions of NOTCH-1 and Csx were down-regulated in the CHD group. Compared with the blank and NC groups, the miR-34a mimics and siRNA-NOTCH-1 groups displayed reduced expressions of NOTCH-1 and Csx as well as a decreased proliferation rate, higher miR-34a, Jagged1, Hes1 and Hey2 expressions and an increased rate of apoptosis; while an reverse trend was observed in the miR-34a inhibitors group. The expressions of MiR-34a recorded increased levels in the miR-34a mimics + NOTCH-1 OE and miR-34a mimics + crispr/cas9 (mutant NOTCH-1) groups, however no changes in the expressions of NOTCH-1, Jagged1, Hes1, Hey2, Csx, as well as cell proliferation and apoptosis were observed when compared to the blank and NC groups. The results of our study demonstrated that miR-34a increases the risk of CHD through its downregulation of NOTCH-1 by modulating the Notch signaling pathway.
