Abstract: Objective To investigate the roles and mechanisms of TCONS_00016478 in atrial energy metabolic remodeling by regulating peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha(PGC-1α)/ peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma(PPARγ)pathway in rabbit models of atrial fibrillation(AF). Methods The long non-coding RNA(lncRNA)expression profiles of right atria were investigated in AF and non-AF rabbit models using RNA sequencing technique. A total of 18 male and female adult New Zealand white rabbits weighting 2.0~2.5 kg were randomly divided into 3 groups: sham group(n=6, received thoracotomy only), negative control group(n=6, right atria infected with negative control lentiviruses), and lenti-RNAi-TCONS_00016478 group(n=6, right atria infected with TCONS_00016478 silencing lentiviruses). The atrial effective refractory period(AERP)and AF inducibility were measured before infection and 7 d after infection. After 7 d infection, the rabbits were sacrificed and atrial samples were collected. The gene and protein expressions were detected with qRT-PCR and Western blotting, respectively. The accumulation of glycogens and lipid droplets in atrial myocytes were assessed with periodic acid-Schiff(PAS)and Oil Red O staining, respectively. Results After 7 d infection, the AERP was significantly shortened in lenti-RNAi-TCONS_00016478 group(80.667±1.453 vs 71.750±2.411, t=3.168, P=0.034); however, no significant difference was found in the sham group(80.083±1.044 vs 79.333±0.333, t=0.684, P=0.531)and negative control group(81.083±2.599 vs 80.000±2.646, t=0.022, P=0.983). AF was induced in 3 rabbits in lenti-RNAi-TCONS_00016478 group, while no AF was induced in the sham and negative control groups. There were significant differences in the gene and protein expressions of TCONS_00016478(F=126.042, P<0.001), PGC1-α(F=43.998, P<0.001), PPARγ(F=417.863, P<0.001), glucose transporter type 4(GLUT4)(F=98.043, P<0.001) and carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1(CPT1)(F=105.096, P<0.001) among the 3 groups. Compared with the sham group, the lenti-RNAi-TCONS_00016478 group had lower expressions of TCONS_00016478, PGC1-α, PPARγ, GLUT4, and CPT1(all P<0.001), Bioinformatic analysis showed lncRNA TCONS_00016478 and PGC-1α were closely related to myocardial energy metabolism. But significantly increased accumulation of glycogens and lipid droplets in atrial myocytes. Conclusion TCONS_00016478 modulates atrial energy metabolic remodeling during AF through PGC-1α/PPARγ pathway.
