Long non-coding RNA plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 linked to hypoxia-induced cardiomyocyte injury of H9c2 cells by targeting miR-135a-5p/forkhead box O1 axis.
Myocardial infarction occurs due to insufficient (ischemia) blood supply to heart for long time; plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 (PVT1) is a long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) involved in the pathogenesis of various diseases, including heart disease; However, few studies have explored its role. The present study evaluated the effects of lncRNA PVT1 on hypoxic rat H9c2 cells. ⋯ PVT1 plays a crucial role in hypoxia-injured H9c2 cells through sponging miR-135a-5p and then positively regulating FOXO1.
