Multiple RNAs have been involved in the progress of heart failure. However, the role of miR-1268a in heart failure is still unclear. The differentially expressed miRNAs in heart failure was analyzed based on GEO dataset GSE104150. AC16 cells were treated with Angiotensin II (Ang II) to explore the role of miR-1268a in heart failure. The web tool miRWalk was used to analyze the targets of miR-1268a. miR-1268a was up-regulated in Ang II-treated AC16 cells. Ang II treatment markedly inhibited cell proliferation, ATP production, fatty acid (FA) uptake and enhanced levels of HF markers BNP and ST2, and oxidative stress of AC16 cells. Notably, inhibition of miR-1268a eliminated the inhibiting effect of Ang II on cell proliferation, ATP production, FA uptake and decreased levels of BNP an ST2, and oxidative stress on AC16 cells. Furthermore, CD36 was a target of miR-1268a and the CD36 level was decreased by miR-1268a mimics but increased by miR-1268a inhibitor in AC16 cells. miR-1268a regulates FA metabolism and oxidative stress in myocardial cells by targeting CD36 in heart failure.
