Inhibition of miR-25 improves cardiac contractility in the failing heart

TL;DR: High-throughput functional screening of the human microRNAome reveals that increased expression of endogenous miR-25 contributes to declining cardiac function during heart failure and suggests that it might be targeted therapeutically to restore function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis and SAR of b-annulated 1,4-dihydropyridines define cardiomyogenic compounds as novel inhibitors of TGFβ signaling.

TL;DR: A medium-throughput murine embryonic stem cell (mESC)-based high-content screening of 17000 small molecules for cardiogenesis led to the identification of a b-annulated 1,4-dihydropyridine that inhibited transforming growth factor β (TGFβ)/Smad signaling by clearing the type II TGFβ receptor from the cell surface.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sacubitril/Valsartan Improves Cardiac Function and Decreases Myocardial Fibrosis Via Downregulation of Exosomal miR‐181a in a Rodent Chronic Myocardial Infarction Model

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that an additional mechanism of action of the pleiotropic effects of sacubitril/valsartan may be mediated by the modulation of the miRNA expression level in the exosome payload.
Journal ArticleDOI

miR-25 Tough Decoy Enhances Cardiac Function in Heart Failure

TL;DR: Tough Decoy (TuD) inhibitors are emerging as a highly effective method for microRNA inhibition due to their resistance to endonucleolytic degradation, high miRNA binding affinity, and efficient delivery and data indicate that miR-25 TuD is an effective long-term suppressor of mi R-25 and a promising therapeutic candidate to treat heart failure.
