The study aims to explore the effects of miR-135b-5p on myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injuries by regulating Janus protein tyrosine kinase 2 (JAK2)/signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) signaling pathway by mediating inhalation anesthesia with sevoflurane. A sum of 120 healthy Wistar male mice was assigned into six groups. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and left ventricular shortening fraction (LVSF) were detected. ⋯ Compared with the Sevo and inhibitor + AG490 + Sevo groups, the AG490 + Sevo group showed decreased LVEF, LVFS, Bcl-2 expression, mRNA expressions of JAK2 and STAT3, and protein expressions of p-STAT3 and p-JAK2, but increased cardiomyocyte necrosis, apoptosis, and Bax expressions. MiR-135b-5p negatively targetted JAK2. Inhibition of miR-135b-5p can protect against myocardial I/R injury by activating JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway through mediation of inhalation anesthesia with sevoflurane.
