The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of microRNA-30d (miR-30d) on autophagy and reveal the mechanism of autophagy promoting ferroptosis in H9C2 cells. ⋯ The expression of miR-30d decreased in cardiomyocytes after MI and which can inhibit autophagy by binding to ATG5. Furthermore, autophagy after MI may promote ferroptosis.

The global hypomethylation of CD4+ T cells in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients has been previously reported. However, potential influencing factors are unclear. This study aimed to uncover the potential influence of obese on hypomethylated CD4+ T cells in SLE patients. ⋯ Hypomethylated CD4+ T cells extensively occur in SLE patients, which are much more pronounced in obese cases. DNMT1 level is found to be negatively correlated to the methylation rate of CD4+ T cells in SLE patients.
