Background: In our study, we investigated the expression and function of microRNA-29 in myocardial microvascular endothelial cells (MMEVC) in type 2 diabetic Goto-Kakizaki (GK) rats.Methods: MiR-29 gene expression was compared, by qRT-PCR between diabetic GK rat MMEVC and non-diabetic Wistar rat MMEVC. MiR-29 was downregulated in GK MMEVC and its effect on angiogenic properties of proliferation and migration was examined. Potential downstream target gene of miR-29, insulin growth factor 1 (IGF1), was assessed by dual-luciferase reporter assay, qRT-PCR and western blot in GK MMEVC. IGF1 was also downregulated by siRNA in miR-29-downregulated GK MMEVC. Its effect on miR-29-associated angiogenic regulation on MMEVC proliferation and migration was further investigated.Results: MiR-29 was substantially upregulated in GK MMEVC than in Wistar MMEVC. Transfection of synthetic miR-29 inhibitor successfully downregulate endogenous miR-29 in GK MMEVC, and subsequently promoted angiogenesis by increasing cell proliferation and migration. IGF1 was confirmed to be downstream target gene of miR-29 in GK MMEVC, with its gene and protein expressions both upregulated in miR-29-downregualted GK MMEVC. Conversely, siRNA-mediated IGF1 downregulation reversed the pro-angiogenic effect of miR-29 downregulation in GK MMEVC, as it decreased cell proliferation and migration.Conclusion: Our study suggests that miR-29 downregulation, through its inverse regulation on downstream target of IGF1 gene, is a pro-angiogenic factor in MMEVC in type 2 diabetic rats.
