The functional role of circRNA CHRC through miR-431-5p/KLF15 signaling axis in the progression of heart failure

Copyright © 2024. Published by Elsevier Ltd..

Pathological myocardial hypertrophy is a common early clinical manifestation of heart failure, with non-coding RNAs exerting regulatory influence. However, the molecular function of circular RNAs (circRNAs) in the progression from cardiac hypertrophy to heart failure remains unclear. To uncover functional circRNAs and identify the core circRNA signaling pathway in heart failure, we construct a global triple network (microRNA, circRNA, and mRNA) based on the competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) theory. We observe that circRNA CHRC, within the ceRNA network, is down-regulated in both transverse aortic constriction (TAC) mice and Ang-II-treated primary mouse cardiomyocytes. Silencing circRNA CHRC increases cross-sectional cell area, atrial natriuretic peptide, and β-myosin heavy chain levels in primary mouse cardiomyocytes. Further screening reveals that circRNA CHRC targets the miR-431-5p/KLF15 axis implicated in heart failure progression in vivo and in vitro. Immunoprecipitation with anti-Ago2-RNA confirms the interaction between circRNA CHRC and miR-431-5p, while miR-431-5p mimics reverse Klf15 activation caused by circRNA CHRC over-expression. In summary, circRNA CHRC attenuates cardiac hypertrophy via sponging miR-431-5p to maintain the normal level of Klf15 expression.
