['The functional properties of endothelial cells (ECs) for regulating nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability are important for normal endothelial function. Micro-RNAs (miRs) and especially angiomiRs regulate vascular integrity and angiogenesis. Besides regulation of reverse cholesterol transport, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) also stimulates NO generation by ECs. This function is impaired in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) and can be attenuated by exercise training. The aim of the present study was to evaluate if HDL-induced miR expression is altered in CHF and if exercise training has an impact.', 'HDL was isolated from CHF patients in NYHA-IIIb (HDLNYHA) and healthy subjects (HDLHealthy) before and after exercise training. Subsequently ECs were incubated for 24 h with the isolated HDL and miR expression was quantified by RT-PCR.', 'HDL-induced expression of miR-126, miR-21 and miR-222 was significantly reduced in ECs incubated with HDLNYHA when compared to HDLHealthy. Exercise training attenuated this HDL-induced reduction of miR-126 and miR-21. HDL-induced expression of miR-221 and miR-214 was not altered in CHF compared to controls and no impact of exercise training was noted.'] Does exercise training improve high-density lipoprotein-mediated transcription of proangiogenic microRNA in endothelial cells?
