Background: miR-126-5p plays an important role in promoting endothelial cell (EC) proliferation. We thus explored whether miR-126-5p can promote EC proliferation and angiogenesis in chronically ischemic brains (CIBs). Results: Improved revascularization in moyamoya patients was correlated with upregulated miR-126-5p expression in the TM and DM. In vitro experiments showed that miR-126-5p promoted EC proliferation through the PI3K/Akt pathway. CIBs from the agomir group exhibited significantly higher p-Akt, VEGF, CD31 and eNOS expression compared with the control CIBs. The ICBP and the RCF were significantly better in the agomir compared with the control group. Conclusion: Increasing miR-126-5p expression in the TM can promote EC proliferation and angiogenesis in CIBs of 2VO+EMS rats through the PI3K/Akt pathway. Methods: We assessed the correlation between revascularization and miR-126-5p expression in the temporal muscle (TM) and dura mater (DM) of moyamoya patients. The effect of miR-126-5p on EC proliferation and downstream signaling pathways was explored in vitro. We established an animal model of two-vessel occlusion plus encephalo-myo-synangiosis (2VO+EMS), transfected the TM with miR-126-5p agomir/antagomir, compared the expression of miR-126-5p and relevant downstream cytokines in brain tissue among different groups, and investigated the improvement in cerebral blood perfusion (ICBP) and the recovery of cognitive function (RCF).
