| Abstract | Background Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are favourable treatments for ischaemic diseases; however, MSCs from diabetic patients are not useful for this purpose. Recent studies have shown that the expression of miR-34a is significantly increased in patients with hyperglycaemia; the precise role of miR-34a in MSCs in diabetes needs to be clarified. Objective The aim of this study is to determine the precise role of miR-34a in MSCs exposed to hyperglycaemia and in recovery heart function after myocardial infarction (MI) in diabetes mellitus (DM) rats. Methods DM rat models were established by high-fat diet combined with streptozotocin (STZ) injection. MSCs were isolated from the bone marrow of donor rats. Chronic culture of MSCs under high glucose was used to mimic the DM micro-environment. The role of miR-34a in regulating cell viability, senescence and paracrine effects were investigated using a cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) staining and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) ELISA, respectively. The expression of autophagy- and senescence-associated proteins in MSCs and silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1) and forkhead box class O 3a (FoxO3a) were analysed by western blotting. Autophagic bodies were analysed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The MI model was established by left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) ligation, and then, the rats were transplanted with differentially treated MSCs intramuscularly at sites around the border zone of the infarcted heart. Thereafter, cardiac function in rats in each group was detected via cardiac ultrasonography at 1 week and 3 weeks after surgery. The infarct size was determined through a 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining assay, while myocardial fibrosis was assessed by Masson staining. Results The results of the current study showed that miR-34a was significantly increased under chronic hyperglycaemia exposure. Overexpression of miR-34a was significantly associated with impaired cell viability, exacerbated senescence and disrupted cell paracrine capacity. Moreover, we found that the mechanism underlying miR-34a-mediated deterioration of MSCs exposed to high glucose involved the activation of the SIRT1/FoxO3a autophagy pathway. Further analysis showed that miR-34a inhibitor-treated MSC transplantation could improve cardiac function and decrease the scar area in DM rats. Conclusions Our study demonstrates for the first time that miR-34a mediates the deterioration of MSCs’ functions under hyperglycaemia. The underlying mechanism may involve the SIRT1/FoxO3a autophagy signalling pathway. Thus, inhibition of miR-34a might have important therapeutic implications in MSC-based therapies for myocardial infarction in DM patients. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
