Abstract
The pathogenesis of myocardial infarction (MI) is complex, involving multiple biomarkers and cell signaling pathways. The aim of this study was to elucidate the molecular structure of VEGFA dioglycan protein and explore how it regulates monocyte infiltration and oxidative stress response after myocardial infarction, so as to provide a new molecular target for the treatment of myocardial infarction. Differential expression analysis and enrichment analysis were performed to investigate the composition and characteristics of immune cells in myocardial infarction. The regulatory network was constructed by network analysis, and in vitro experiments were carried out by BMDM isolation culture. Animal experiments were conducted in mouse models, and data were verified and statistically analyzed by combining immunohistochemical staining, real-time PCR, Western blot and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and single-cell data successfully identified key immune-related genes and analyzed differentially expressed mRNA and its characteristics in myocardial infarction. The immune microenvironment of myocardial infarction was investigated, the differentially expressed circRNA and miRNA were characterized, and the circrNa-mirNA-mrna regulatory network was constructed. The characteristics of differentially expressed proteins in myocardial infarction and the changes of mRNA during oxidative stress were identified and compared. By analyzing the changes in chromatin accessibility, the regulatory network between oxidative stress and myocardial infarction in immune cells was constructed, and the expression and co-localization of oxidative stress in myocardial infarction were verified.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Biological Macromolecules is a well-established international journal dedicated to research on the chemical and biological aspects of natural macromolecules. Focusing on proteins, macromolecular carbohydrates, glycoproteins, proteoglycans, lignins, biological poly-acids, and nucleic acids, the journal presents the latest findings in molecular structure, properties, biological activities, interactions, modifications, and functional properties. Papers must offer new and novel insights, encompassing related model systems, structural conformational studies, theoretical developments, and analytical techniques. Each paper is required to primarily focus on at least one named biological macromolecule, reflected in the title, abstract, and text.
