MiR-194-5p was involved in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity in vivo. (A) The expression levels of miR-194-5p in mice heart tissue were detected after DOX treatment by qRT-PCR. (B) Adenovirus-harbored anta-miR-194-5p was injected into the mice 1 week before DOX treatment. The expression levels of PAK2, XBP1s and cleaved caspase-12 were detected by Western blot. Echocardiographic analysis of left ventricular cardiac function in mice, EF (C) and FS (D) results are shown. EF, ejection fraction; FS, fractional shortening. Apoptosis was measured by TUNEL assay (F) and apoptotic rates were analyzed (E). Green, TUNEL-positive nuclei; blue, DAPI (4,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole)-stained nuclei; scale bar, 500 μm. (G) Masson trichrome staining for collagen performed. scale bar, 200 μm. Anta-194, adenovirus-harbored miR-194-5p antagomir. N = 4, and the data were expressed as mean ± SD. ∧p < 0.05 vs. control. *p < 0.01 vs. control.
