Catenin beta-1 (CTNNB1/Beta-catenin)
In total 1 item(s) under this target gene
Experiment 1 Reporting the m6A-centered Disease Response by This Target Gene [1]
Response Summary Mettl14 resulted in enhanced levels of Wnt1 m6A modification and Wnt1 protein but not its transcript level.Furthermore, Mettl14 overexpression blocked I/R-induced downregulation of Wnt1 and Catenin beta-1 (CTNNB1/Beta-catenin) proteins, whereas Mettl14 hearts exhibited the opposite results. Mettl14 attenuates cardiac I/R injury by activating Wnt/Bete-catenin in an m6A-dependent manner, providing a novel therapeutic target for ischemic heart disease.

In-vitro Model Neonatal rat ventricular cardiomyocytes (Primary myocyte cells)
In-vivo Model C57BL/6 mouse hearts were subjected to ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) in vivo as described previously (Bock-Marquette et al., 2004; Song et al., 2015; Brocard et al., 2017). I/R injury in mice was induced by 45-min ischemia, followed by 7-day and 4-week reperfusion in a loss-of-function study (Figure 1) and gain-of-function study (Figure 2), respectively. In brief, mice were anesthetized with 2% avertin (0.1 ml/10g body weight; Sigma-Aldrich Corporation, United States) through intraperitoneal injection. To generate I/R injury, the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) was ligated with 7-0 nylon for 45 min and then was removed. For the sham group, a suture was passed under the LAD but without ligation. According to the experimental requirements, at different time points of cardiac I/R, the mice were anesthetized for assessing heart function by echocardiographic measurement. All the mice survived during the process of I/R injury after the operation.

In-vitro Model H9c2(2-1) Normal Rattus norvegicus CVCL_0286
In-vivo Model The thoracic cavity of rats was exposed, and the left anterior descending coronary artery was ligated with a 6-0 silk thread. Successfully surgical MI could be observed, with myocardium color fading and pulse weakening. After 30 min of ischemia, the blood flow was restored by releasing the slipknot, and then 120-min perfusion was performed. Afterward, the thoracic cavity of rats was sutured. The rats were assigned into 4 groups, with 12 rats in each group. Lentivirus packaged short hairpin (sh)-negative control (NC) and sh-METTL3 (GenePharma, Shanghai, China) were injected into the rats via tail vein 24 h before operation. The titer of lentivirus was 1?×?109 TU/mL, and the injection rate was 0.2 ul/min for 10 min. Blood samples were collected 24 h after reperfusion.

Transcription factor EB (TFEB)

Experiment 1 Reporting the m6A-centered Disease Response by This Target Gene [3]
Response Summary METTL3 methylates Transcription factor EB (TFEB), a master regulator of lysosomal biogenesis and autophagy genes, at two m6A residues in the 3'-UTR, which promotes the association of the RNA-binding protein HNRNPD with TFEB pre-mRNA and subsequently decreases the expression levels of TFEB. METTL3-ALKBH5 and autophagy, providing insight into the functional importance of the reversible mRNA m6A methylation and its modulators in ischemic heart disease.
