BACKGROUND
Small and large preclinical animal models have shown that antagomir-92a-based therapy reduces early postischemic loss of function, but its effect on postinfarction remodeling is not known. In addition, the reported remote miR-92a inhibition in noncardiac organs prevents the translation of nonvectorized miR-targeted therapy to the clinical setting. We investigated whether a single intracoronary administration of antagomir-92a encapsulated in microspheres could prevent deleterious remodeling of myocardium 1 month after acute myocardial infarction
UNASSIGNED
Should "acute" be added before "myocardial infarction" (since abbreviation is AMI)? Also check at first mention in main text (AMI) without adverse effects.
RESULTS
In a percutaneous pig model of reperfused AMI, a single intracoronary administration of antagomir-92a encapsulated in specific microspheres (9 μm poly-d,-lactide-co-glycolide [PLGA]) inhibited miR-92a in a local, selective, and sustained manner (n=3 pigs euthanized 1, 3, and 10 days after treatment; 8×, 2×, and 5×-fold inhibition at 1, 3, and 10 days). Downregulation of miR-92a resulted in significant vessel growth (n=27 adult minipigs randomly allocated to blind receive encapsulated antagomir-92a, encapsulated placebo, or saline [n=8, 9, 9]; P=0.001), reduced regional wall-motion dysfunction (P=0.03), and prevented adverse remodeling in the infarct area 1 month after injury (P=0.03). Intracoronary injection of microspheres had no significant adverse effect in downstream myocardium in healthy pigs (n=2), and fluorescein isothiocyanate albumin-PLGA microspheres were not found in myocardium outside the left anterior descending coronary artery territory (n=4) or in other organs (n=2).
CONCLUSIONS
Early single intracoronary administration of encapsulated antagomir-92a in an adult pig model of reperfused AMI prevents left ventricular remodeling with no local or distant adverse effects, emerging as a promising therapeutic approach to translate to patients who suffer a large AMI.
