Recent studies have demonstrated that miRNAs are involved in the pathogenesis of hypertrophy.We investigated miR-16 expression and their potential roles in a rat model of hypertrophy induced by abdominal artery constriction (AAC).miR-16 expression was significantly decreased, and CCND1 and CCND2 protein were markedly increased without obvious change of its mRNA level after hypertrophy induction.CCND1 and CCND2 levels were increased without changing their transcript levels in neonatal rat ventricular cardiomyocytes(NRVC) induced by PE,and miR-16 was down-regulated in this process with significantly up-regulatedβ-MHC,ANF and MLC-2 expression.Conversely,introduction of functional miR-16,CCND1 siRNA or CCND2 siRNA into NRVCs could repress cardiomyocyte hypertrophy.These results implicate that miR-16 is involved in contributing to cardiac hypertrophy,one of the mechanisms may be resulted from post-transcriptional regulation of CCND1 and CCND2.展开更多
