Abstract:

Oridonin (Orid) has been diffusely applied to remedy dissimilar cancers. Howbeit, the influence of Orid in ischemic heart disease (IHD) remains imprecise. The current study uncovered the functions of Orid in hypoxia-caused apoptosis and autophagy in H9c2 cells. H9c2 cells received hypoxia and Orid manipulation, cell viability, apoptosis, apoptosis-interrelated factors and autophagy-correlative factors were appraised. After the extraordinary vectors transfections, the impacts of miR-214 inhibition on hypoxia-triggered apoptosis and autophagy were investigated. Further, dual luciferase reporter assay was enforced for ascertaining the pertinence between miR-214 and PTEN. PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway was finally determined using western blot. We found that, Orid significantly alleviated hypoxia-induced apoptosis and autophagy through regulation their associated proteins in H9c2 cells. Up-regulation of miR-214 was found in hypoxia and Orid co-managed cells, meanwhile, repression of miR-214 obviously annulled the modulatory functions of Orid in hypoxia-evoked apoptosis and autophagy. Additionally, PTEN was forecasted to be a firsthand target of miR-214. Besides, we observed that Orid evoked PI3K/AKT/mTOR activation through elevation of miR-214 in hypoxia-managed H9c2 cells. In conclusion, the amusing results corroborated that Orid relieved hypoxia-caused apoptosis and autophagy via adjusting PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway through enhancement of miR-214 in H9c2 cells.
