abstractText | Ischemic stroke is one of the leading causes of death and disability globally and has been regarded as a major public health problem. MicroRNA 182 (miR-182) plays important roles in cellular differentiation, cell growth, cell apoptosis and metastasis. However, the role of miR-182 in the cerebral ischemia injury has never been investigated. In the present study, we demonstrate a crucial role of miR-182 in down-regulating inhibitory member of the ASPP family (iASPP) expression and promoting cerebral ischemia injury. MiR-182 also promotes NO and 3-NT production, and Caspase3 expression, while reduces SOD and MnSOD activities. Furthermore, the amplified cerebral ischemia injury induced by miR-182 is aggravated by inhibition of iASPP. In conclusion, miR-182 plays an aggressive role in the cerebral ischemia injury, and this is associated with inhibited iASPP expression. |
