The BMSC-derived exosomal lncRNA Mir9-3hg suppresses cardiomyocyte ferroptosis in ischemia-reperfusion mice via the Pum2/PRDX6 axis

The exosomal long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been reported to have cardioprotective effects on ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury by hindering ferroptosis, but the role of lncRNA Mir9-3 host gene (Mir9-3hg) in cardiac I/R injury remains unclear. Exosomes were extracted from mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and identified by detecting the exosome specific marker levels, and the results showed that Mir9-3hg was highly expressed in BMSCs-Exo. Hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-treated HL-1 mouse cardiomyocytes were incubated with exosomes extracted from BMSCs transfected with Mir9-3hg siRNA.
