MIRI

miR-135b-3p

GPX4

miR-135b-3p promotes the myocardial I/R injury by downregulating GPX4 expression

[47]

MIRI

miR-1224

GPX4

miR-1224 is highly expressed in H/R cardiomyocytes. Inhibition of miR-1224 affects GPX4 expression, reduces oxidative damage

[48]

MIRI

miR-144-3p

SLC7A11

miR-144-3p negatively regulates SLC7A11 protein levels in H9C2 cells, enhances the sensitivity to ferroptosis

[49]

MIRI

miR-190a-5p

GLS2

Overexpression of miR-190a-5p can inhibit GLS2, protect H9C2 cells from erastin and RSL3-induced ferroptosis

[50]

MIRI

miR-199a-5p

Akt/eNOS

miR-199a-5p promotesferroptosis during OGD/R by activating the Akt/eNOS signaling pathway

[51]

MIRI

miR-210–3p

TFR

miR-210-3p inhibiting TFR and promoting the proliferation of cardiomyocytes in H9C2 cells

[52]

MIRI

miR-432-5p

Nrf2

miR432-5p inhibits ferroptosis by activating the Nrf2/SLC7A11 axis through degrading Keap1

[53]

MIRI

miR-196c-3p

LOX、NOX4、P53

miR-196c-3p can regulate the expression of LOX, NOX4, P53, inhibiting ferroptosis

[54]

AMI

miR-30d

ATG5

miR-30d can bind to ATG5 to decreased in ferroptosis after MI

[55]

AMI

miR-15a-5p

GPX4

Overexpression of miR-15a-5p strengthened ferroptosis by affects GPX4 expression

[56]

AMI

miR-214-3p

ME2

miR-214-3p may contribute to cardiomyocyte ferroptosis via suppressing ME2, which could significantly lower NADPH level, leading to ROS burst and ferroptosis

[58]

AMI

miR-26b-5p

SLC7A11

Plasma exosomes from patients with AMI can downregulate miR-26b-5p and upregulation of SLC7A11 inhibited hypoxia-induced ferroptosis

[59]

AMI

miR-23a-3p

DMT1

HUCB-MSCs-exosomes may suppress DMT1 expression via miR-23a-3p, which reduces Fe2+ and MDA levels, inhibits ferroptosis

[60]

Cardiac fibrosis

miR-375-3p

GPX4

miR-375-3p downregulate GPX4 and inhibiting the oxidative clearance function of superoxide dismutase, accelerating ferroptosis and cardiac fibrosis

[66]

Cardiac fibrosis

miR-351

MLK3

miR-351 negatively regulated the expression of MLK3, prevent myocardial fibrosis

[67]

AF

miR-23a-3p

SLC7A11

In AF, inhibiting the secretion of exosomal miR-23a-3p by cardiac fibroblasts protects H9C2 myocardial cells from ferroptosis

[68]
