miR‐454 inhibits cardiomyocyte apoptosis and injury by activating the cAMP pathway through NEDD4‐2/TrkA axis. H9c2 cells were treated with mimic NC + DMSO, miR‐454 mimic + DMSO or miR‐454 mimic + H‐89 for 48 h. A, The expression of miR‐454 in H9c2 cells determined by RT‐qPCR. B, The mRNA expression of NEDD4‐2 in H9c2 cells determined by RT‐qPCR; */#
