中文摘要: 心房颤动(房颤)是临床最常见的持续性心律失常,但其机制仍未阐明。在前期研究中,我们联合应用miRNA芯片、蛋白组学、生物信息学技术,发现一个可能参与房颤机制的miR-30c/ACTC1调控通路。依据最新研究进展和预实验结果我们提出miR-30c通过负向调控ACTC1抑制心房纤维化从而降低房颤易感性的科学假说。为验证假说,本项目选择临床标本、犬/小鼠房颤模型以及心房成纤维细胞模型;应用基因转染、转基因、基因敲除技术手段,实现过表达及抑制表达miR-30c;使用电生理学、形态学、分子生物学多种检测方法,观察miR-30c对心房纤维化及房颤易感性的影响;从分子—细胞—整体水平、体外—体内实验,多层次、多角度阐明miR-30c负向调控ACTC1抑制心房纤维化降低房颤易感性的作用及其分子机制。本项目的实施,将为进一步揭示房颤机制提供新理论,并为下一步的房颤防治提供新思路和新靶点。

英文摘要: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia in clinical practice, but its mechanism is still unclear. In preliminary study, we found the miR-30c/ACTC1 pathway maybe involve in the mechanism of AF combined using the miRNA microarray,proteomics and bioinformatics technology. According to the latest research progress and results of preliminary experiments, we raise a scientific hypothesis that miR-30c inhibit atrial fibrosis to reduce AF vulnerability by negatively regulating ACTC1. In order to verify the hypothesis, This study aims to select clinical specimens, dog/mice AF model, atrial fibroblasts model; using gene transfection, gene transfer and gene knockout technology; realizing overexpression of miR-30c and inhibition of miR-30c expression; observing the effect of miR-30c on atrial fibrosis and AF vulnerability by using the method of electrophysiology,morphology and molecular biology; to clarify the effect and molecular mechanism that miR-30c inhibit atrial fibrosis to reduce AF vulnerability by negatively regulating ACTC1 from the molecular -cell- organ level, in vitro and in vivo experiment, different levels and perspectives. This study may provide new insights into the underlying mechanisms of AF and provide potential novel mechanism-based therapeutic strategies for AF.
