Objective. Cardiac injury induced by myocardial ischemic reperfusion (MI/R) is still an intractable question in clinical, and it has been confirmed as a major reason for the development of cardiovascular disease. Bioinformatics analysis has been widely used for revealing the pathogenic mechanism of diseases. This study attempted to identify the biomarkers and reveal the regulation mechanism of MI/R injury via bioinformatics analysis. Methods. The GSE67308 and GSE74951 were obtained from the GEO database. The datasets were analyzed with GEO2R tool, and the genes with |logFC| > 2 and p value <0.05 were identified as the differentially expressed genes (DEGs). The enrichment analysis of the DEGs was performed with the DAVID database and R language. Moreover, the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network of DEGs was performed with the STRING database and then visualized with Cytoscape. Result. The results showed that 195 downregulated mRNAs and 240 downregulated mRNAs were found in GSE67308, and 11 miRNAs were found in GSE7495. 152 common genes were screened in DEGs of GSE67308 and the targets of 11 miRNAs in GSE7495. Moreover, the enrichment analysis showed that the common genes were related with inflammatory response, immune response, PI3K/AKT, NF-κB, and TNF pathways. Besides, mmu-miR-92a-3p and mmu-miR-27b-3p were identified as the hubs miRNAs, and TNF, IL1B, and IFG1 were screened as the key nodes. Conclusion. This study established a miRNA-mRNA network for cardiac injury induced by MI/R and provided the evidence concerning the molecular mechanism of MI/R injury, which provided some reference for MI/R treatment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
