Recent, research has displayed that the disorders of miR-18b are related to ischemic stroke. Here, we aimed to investigate the underlying neuroprotective mechanism of miR-18b in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Oxygen-glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGDR) model in vitro and middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model in vivo were established to simulate cerebral I/R injury. RT-PCR, western blotting, CCK-8, TUNEL, and TTC staining assays were applied in this study to explore the effect of miR-18b on cerebral I/R injury. Results displayed that miR-18b expression was reduced after cerebral I/R injury. Besides, miR-18b showed neuroprotective effects on cerebral I/R injury both in vitro and in vivo, These neuroprotective effects included promoting cell viability, decreasing cell apoptosis, reducing the production of inflammatory cytokines in SH-SY 5Y cells after OGDR and depressing MCAO-induced infarct size, neurological deficits and apoptotic cells in mice. Moreover, miR-18b negatively regulated ANXA3 expression, and its neuroprotection on cerebral I/R injury was overturned by ANXA3. Additionally, increasing miR-18b or decreasing ANXA3 promoted the activation of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway in SH-SY 5Y cells after cerebral I/R injury. In conclusion, these data indicate that miR-18b protects against cerebral I/R injury by inhibiting ANXA3 and activating PI3K/Akt pathway, which provides a promising therapeutic target for ischemic stroke therapy.
