Background/Aims: LncRNA metastasis associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1) was reported to be highly expressed in an in vitro mimic of ischemic stroke conditions. However, the exact biological role of MALAT1 and its underlying mechanism in ischemic stroke remain to be elucidated. Methods: The roles of MALAT1 and miR-30a on cell death and infarct volume and autophagy were evaluated in experimental ischemic stroke. The relationships between miR-30a and MALAT1, Beclin1 were confirmed by luciferase reporter assay. The autophagy inhibitor 3-methyadenine (3-MA) was used to examine the impact of autophagy on ischemic injury. Results: We found that MALAT1, along with the levels of conversion from autophagy-related protein microtubule-associated protein light chain 3-I (LC3-I) to LC3-phosphatidylethanolamine conjugate (LC3-II), as well as Beclin1 were up-regulated and miR-30a was down-regulated in cerebral cortex neurons after oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) and mouse brain cortex after middle cerebral artery occlusion-reperfusion (MCAO). Down-regulation of MALAT1 suppressed ischemic injury and autophagy in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, MALAT1 may serve as a molecular sponge for miR-30a and negatively regulate its expression. In addition, MALAT1 overturned the inhibitory effect of miR-30a on ischemic injury and autophagy in vitro and in vivo, which might be involved in the derepression of Beclin1, a direct target of miR-30a. Mechanistic analyses further revealed that autophagy inhibitor 3-methyadenine (3-MA) markedly suppressed OGD-induced neuronal cell death and MCAO-induced ischemic brain infarction. Conclusion: Taken together, our study first revealed that down-regulation of MALAT1 attenuated neuronal cell death through suppressing Beclin1-dependent autophagy by regulating miR-30a expression in cerebral ischemic stroke. Besides, our study demonstrated a novel lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network that is MALAT1-miR-30a-Beclin1 in ischemic stroke, contributing to a better understanding the pathogenesis and progression of ischemic stroke.

Stroke, which is the second leading cause of mortality in the world, is urgently needed to explore the medical strategies for ischemic stroke treatment. Both icariin (ICA) and icaritin (ICT) are the major active flavonoids extracted from Herba epimedii that have been regarded as the neuroprotective agents in disease models. In this study, we aimed to investigate and compare the neuroprotective effects of ICA and ICT in a middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) mouse model. Male ICR mice were pretreated with both ICA and ICT, which ameliorated body weight loss, neurological injury, infarct volume, and pathological change in acute ischemic stroke mice. Furthermore, administration of both ICA and ICT could also protect against neuronal cell apoptotic death, oxidative and nitrosative stress, lipid peroxidation, and extracellular matrix (ECM) accumulation in the brains. The neuroprotective effects of ICT are slightly better than that of ICA in acute cerebral ischemic stroke mice. These results suggest that pretreatment with both ICA and ICT improves the neuronal cell apoptosis and responses of oxidative/nitrosative stress and counteracts the ECM accumulation in the brains of acute cerebral ischemic stroke mice. Both ICA and ICT treatment may serve as a useful therapeutic strategy for acute ischemic stroke.

Cardiovascular disease including cerebral ischemic stroke is the major complication that increases the morbidity and mortality in patients with diabetes mellitus as much as four times. It has been well established that irisin, with its ability to regulate glucose and lipid homeostasis as well as anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic properties, has been widely examined for its therapeutic potentials in managing metabolic disorders. However, the mechanism of irisin in the regulation of cerebral ischemic stroke remains unclear. Using PC12 cells as a model, we have shown that hypoxia/reoxygenation inhibits cell viability and increases lactic dehydrogenase. Irisin, in a dose-dependent manner, reversed these changes. The increase in inflammatory mediators (IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α) by hypoxia/reoxygenation was reversed by irisin. Furthermore, the cell apoptosis promoted by hypoxia/reoxygenation was also inhibited by irisin. Irisin suppressed TLR4/MyD88 signaling pathway leading to amelioration of inflammation and apoptosis in PC12 cells. Thus, inhibition of TLR4/MyD88 signaling pathway via irisin could be an important mechanism in the regulation of hypoxia/reoxygenation-induced inflammation and apoptosis in PC12 cells.
