Previous studies have demonstrated that transient myocardial ischemia leads to release of cellular nucleic acids such as RNA. Extracellular RNA reportedly plays a pivotal role in myocardial inflammation and ischemic injury in animals. RNA profiling has identified that numerous microRNA (miRNAs), such as ss-miR-146a-5p, are upregulated in plasma following myocardial ischemia, and certain uridine-rich miRNAs exhibit strong proinflammatory effects in immune cells via ssRNA-sensing mechanism. However, the effect of extracellular miRNAs on myocardial inflammation and cardiac cell function remains unknown. In this study, we treated adult mouse cardiomyocytes with miR-146a-5p loaded in extracellular vesicles and observed a dose- and TLR7-dependent production of CXCL-2, IL-6, and TNF-α. In vivo, a single dose of myocardial injection of miR-146a-5p induced both cytokine expression (CXCL2, IL-6, and TNF-α) and innate immune cell activation (CD45+ leukocytes, Ly6Cmid+ monocytes, Ly6G+ neutrophils), which was significantly attenuated in the hearts of TLR7 KO mice. We discovered that conditioned media from miR-146a-treated macrophages stimulated proinflammatory cytokine production in adult cardiomyocytes and significantly inhibited their sarcomere shortening. Finally, using an electric cell impedance-sensing assay, we found that the conditioned media from miR-146a-treated cardiac fibroblasts or cardiomyocytes impaired the barrier function of coronary artery endothelial cells. Taken together, these data demonstrate that extracellular miR-146a-5p activates multiple cardiac cells and induces myocardial inflammation and cardiomyocyte dysfunction via intercellular interaction and innate immune TLR7 nucleic acid sensing.
