    Abstract Aim: Inhibition of microRNA (miR)-132 effectively prevents and reverses adverse cardiac remodelling, making it an attractive heart failure (HF) target. CDR132L, a synthetic antisense oligonucleotide selectively blocking pathologically elevated miR-132, demonstrated beneficial effects on left ventricular (LV) structure and function in relevant preclinical models, and was safe and well tolerated in a Phase 1b study in stable chronic HF patients. Patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI) and subsequent LV dysfunction and remodelling have limited therapeutic options, and may profit from early CDR132L treatment.
    Methods: The HF-REVERT (Phase 2, multicenter, randomized, parallel, 3-arm, placebo-controlled Study to Assess Efficacy and Safety of CDR132L in Patients with Reduced Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction after Myocardial Infarction) evaluates the efficacy and safety of CDR132L in HF patients post-acute MI (n = 280), comparing the effect of 5 and 10 mg/kg CDR132L, administered as three single intravenous doses 28 days apart, in addition to standard of care. Key inclusion criteria are the diagnosis of acute MI, the development of systolic dysfunction (LV ejection fraction ≤45%) and elevated N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide. The study consists of a 6-month double-blinded treatment period with the primary endpoint LV end-systolic volume index and relevant secondary endpoints, followed by a 6-month open-label observation period.
    Conclusion: The HF-REVERT trial may underpin the concept of miR-132 inhibition to prevent or reverse cardiac remodelling in post-MI HF. The results will inform the design of subsequent outcome trials to test CDR132L in HF.

    Abstract Besides the acquisition of pharmacokinetic parameters of antisense oligonucleotide microRNA (miRNA) inhibitors, such as measuring in vivo concentration, their pharmacodynamic characteristics are also of interest. An emerging and straightforward method for studying molecular interactions is microscale thermophoresis (MST). This technique makes it possible to study interactions between miRNAs and various oligonucleotide inhibitors, independent of the chemical modifications of the inhibitors or their respective target structure, with very little sample volume required compared to competitive techniques, such as surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). Interaction studies between these inhibitors and their respective target structures were performed, and they allowed the assessment of binding characteristics and parameters, such as EC

    Abstract Cardiac diseases are the most frequent causes of death in industrialized countries. Pathological remodeling of the heart muscle is caused by several etiologies such as prolonged hypertension or injuries that can lead to myocardial infarction and in serious cases also the death of the patient. The micro-RNA miR-132 has been identified as a master-switch in the development of cardiac hypertrophy and adverse remodeling. In this study, MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry (MS) was utilized to establish a robust and fast method to sensitively detect and accurately quantify anti-microRNA (antimiR) oligonucleotides in blood plasma. An antimiR oligonucleotide isolation protocol containing an ethanol precipitation step with glycogen as oligonucleotide carrier as well as a robust and reproducible MS-analysis procedure has been established. Proteinase K treatment was crucial for releasing antimiR oligonucleotides from plasma- as well as cellular proteins and reducing background derived from biological matrices. AntimiR oligonucleotide detection was achieved from samples of studies in different animal models such as mouse and pig where locked nucleic acids-(LNA)-modified antimiR oligonucleotides have been used to generate pharmacokinetic data.

    Abstract Hypertension is a complex, multifactorial disease, and its development is determined by a combination of genetic susceptibility and environmental factors. Several mechanisms have been implicated in the pathogenesis of hypertension: increased activity of the sympathetic nervous system, overactivation of the renin-angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS), dysfunction of vascular endothelium, impaired platelet function, thrombogenesis, vascular smooth muscle and cardiac hypertrophy, and altered angiogenesis. MicroRNAs are short, noncoding nucleotides regulating target messenger RNAs at the post-transcriptional level. MicroRNAs are involved in virtually all biologic processes, including cellular proliferation, apoptosis, and differentiation. Thus, microRNA deregulation often results in impaired cellular function and disease development, so microRNAs have potential therapeutic relevance. Many aspects of the development of essential hypertension at the molecular level are still unknown. The elucidation of these processes regulated by microRNAs and the identification of novel microRNA targets in the pathogenesis of hypertension is a highly valuable and exciting strategy that may eventually led to the development of novel treatment approaches for hypertension. This article reviews the potential role of microRNAs in the mechanisms associated with the development and consequences of hypertension and discusses advances in microRNA-based approaches that may be important in treating hypertension.

    Abstract Right ventricular (RV) remodelling is a lesser understood process of the chronic, progressive transformation of the RV structure leading to reduced functional capacity and subsequent failure. Besides conditions concerning whole hearts, some pathology selectively affects the RV, leading to a distinct RV-specific clinical phenotype. MicroRNAs have been identified as key regulators of biological processes that drive the progression of chronic diseases. The role of microRNAs in diseases affecting the left ventricle has been studied for many years, however there is still limited information on microRNAs specific to diseases in the right ventricle. Here, we review recently described details on the expression, regulation, and function of microRNAs in the pathological remodelling of the right heart. Recently identified strategies using microRNAs as pharmacological targets or biomarkers will be highlighted. Increasing knowledge of pathogenic microRNAs will finally help improve our understanding of underlying distinct mechanisms and help utilize novel targets or biomarkers to develop treatments for patients suffering from right heart diseases.
