Our previous study revealed that selenium (Se) deficiency can cause myocardial injury through triggering autophagy. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play crucial roles in autophagic cell death. However, the relationship between miRNAs and myocardial autophagy injury caused by Se deficiency remains unclear. We selected differential microRNA-215-5p (miR-215-5p) in Se-deficient myocardial tissue using high-throughput miRNA-sequencing. To further explore the role of miR-215-5p in myocardial injury, overexpression/knockdown of miR-215-5p in primary cardiomyocyte model was established by miRNAs interference technology. In this study, we report that miR-215-5p can promote myocardial autophagy by directly binding to the 3'untranslated region (3'UTR) of phosphatidylinositol-4, 5-bisphosphate 3-kinase (PI3K). Its target gene PI3K was confirmed by dual luciferase reporter assay, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and western blot in cardiomyocytes. Our results showed that overexpression of miR-215-5p could trigger myocardial autophagy through PI3K-threonine-protein kinase (AKT)-target of rapamycin (TOR) pathway. Further studies revealed that autophagic cell death was dependent on the activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinasel/2 (ERK1/2), c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), p38 kinase (p38) and generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in overexpression of miR-215-5p in cardiomyocytes. On the contrary, miR-215-5p inhibitor can enhance cell survival capacity against autophagy by inhibiting ROS-mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways and activating the PI3K/AKT/TOR pathway in cardiomyocytes. Together, our findings support that miR-215-5p may modulate cell survival programs by regulating autophagy, and miR-215-5p acts as an autophagic regulator in the regulatory feedback loop that regulates cardiomyocyte survival by modulating the PI3K/AKT/TOR pathway and ROS-dependent MAPK pathways.
