Previous studies have highlighted the role of disordered expression of lncRNA-H19 in the development of cardiovascular diseases (12) and demonstrated that lncRNA MALAT1 regulates mitochondrial dynamics post-myocardial infarction while inhibiting myocardial apoptosis through the miR-26B-5p/Mfn1 axis (10). Here, MALAT1 is linked to myocardial infarction.
