Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) represents the acute manifestation of coronary artery disease. In recent years, microRNAs (miRNAs) have been extensively studied in AMI. This study focused on the role of miR-431-5p in AMI and its effect on cardiomyocyte apoptosis after AMI. The expression of miR-431-5p was analyzed by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). By interfering with miR-431-5p in hypoxia-reoxygenation (H/R)-induced HL-1 cardiomyocytes, the effect of miR-431-5p on cardiomyocyte apoptosis after AMI was examined. The interaction between miR-431-5p and selenoprotein T (SELT) mRNA was verified by dual-luciferase reporter assay. Cell apoptosis was determined by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay and flow cytometry. Cell viability was examined by 3-(4,5)-dimethylthiahiazo(-z-y1)-3,5-di-phenytetrazoliumromide (MTT) assay. The results of qRT-PCR showed that the expression of miR-431-5p in AMI myocardial tissues and H/R-induced HL-1 cardiomyocytes was significantly increased. After interfering with miR-431-5p, the expression of SELT in HL-1 cells was up-regulated, cell apoptosis was decreased, cell viability was increased, and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity was decreased. The dual-luciferase reporter assay confirmed the targeting relationship between miR-431-5p and SELT1 3' untranslated region (UTR). In H/R-induced HL-1 cells, the simultaneous silencing of SELT and miR-431-5p resulted in a decrease of Bcl-2 expression, an increase of Bax expression, and an increase of cleaved-caspase 3 expression compared with silencing miR-431-5p alone. Also, cell viability was decreased, while LDH activity was increased by the simultaneous silencing of SELT and miR-431-5p. Interfering miR-431-5p protected cardiomyocytes from AMI injury via restoring the expression of SELT, providing new ideas for the treatment of AMI.
