Endometritis is a prevalent disease with inflammation of uterus endangering women reproductive health. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in inflammatory disorders, including endometritis. However, the role and mechanism of miR‐643 in endometritis development remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the effect of miR‐643 on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)‐induced inflammatory response and clarify the potential mechanism. LPS‐treated human endometrial epithelial cells (HEECs) were cultured to investigate the role of miR‐643 in vitro. The expression levels of miR‐643 and tumor necrosis factor receptor‐associated factor 6 (TRAF6) were measured via quantitative real‐time polymerase chain reaction and western blot, respectively. LPS‐induced inflammatory response was assessed by inflammatory cytokines secretion via enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay. The activation of nuclear factor‐κB (NF‐κB) pathway was investigated by western blot. The interaction between miR‐643 and TRAF6 was validated by bioinformatics analysis, luciferase reporter assay, and RNA immunoprecipitation. The expression of miR‐643 was decreased and TRAF6 protein level was enhanced in LPS‐treated HEECs. The overexpression of miR‐643 suppressed LPS‐induced secretion of inflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor‐α, interleukin‐1β [IL‐1β], and IL‐6) and activation of NF‐κB pathway. The knockdown of TRAF6 inhibited LPS‐induced inflammatory response in HEECs. TRAF6 was validated as a target of miR‐643 and TRAF6 restoration reversed the effect of miR‐643 on inflammation response in LPS‐treated HEECs. Collectively, miR‐643 attenuated LPS‐induced inflammatory response by targeting TRAF6, indicating a novel avenue for the treatment of endometritis. 相似文献

Tuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), is one of leading causes of global deaths. This study aimed to explore the role of miR‐18a in RAW264.7 cells response to Mtb infection. Exosomes derived from Mtb‐infected cells were isolated and further validated by size, transmission electron microscopy and Western blot. RT‐PCR was utilized to measure miR‐18a expression. Cell viability and ultrastructure were examined by CFU counting, CCK‐8 and electron microscope, respectively. Potential target genes of miR‐18a were predicted with bioinformatics and further confirmed using RT‐PCR, Western blot and laser confocal microscope analysis, respectively. LC3, AMPK and mTOR were measured using Western blot. We found that miR‐18a was induced both in Mtb‐infected RAW264.7 cells and its derived exosomes compared with the controls. In addition, up‐regulation of miR‐18a promoted intracellular Mtb survival, attenuated cell viability and reduced LC3‐II level, while its down‐regulation had the opposite effect. miR‐18a overexpression suppressed level of ATM, one possible target of miR‐18a, while its underexpression enhanced ATM. We also found that inhibition of ATM induced LC3‐II decrease in Mtb‐infected cells and could reverse the increase of LC3‐II caused by inhibition of miR‐18a. Moreover, down‐regulation of miR‐18a increased p‐AMPK level while reduction of ATM could reverse the change. Taken together, our results suggest that miR‐18a is up‐regulated in macrophages response to Mtb infection, and it promotes intracellular Mtb survival through repressing autophagic process by down‐regulation of ATM pathway. This provides new thought for TB pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment. 相似文献

The study was aimed to screen out miRNAs with differential expression in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and to explore the influence of the expressions of these miRNAs and their target gene on HCC cell proliferation, invasion and apoptosis. MiRNAs with differential expression in HCC were screened out by microarray analysis. The common target gene of these miRNAs (miR‐139‐5p, miR‐940 and miR‐193a‐5p) was screened out by analysing the target genes profile (acquired from Targetscan) of the three miRNAs. Expression levels of miRNAs and SPOCK1 were determined by quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (qRT‐PCR). The target relationships were verified by dual luciferase reporter gene assay and RNA pull‐down assay. Through 3‐(4,5‐dimethyl‐2‐thiazolyl)‐2,5‐diphenyl‐2‐H‐tetrazolium bromide,thiazolyl blue tetrazolium bromide (MTT) and transwell assays and flow cytometry, HCC cell viability, invasion and apoptosis were determined. In vivo experiment was conducted in nude mice to investigate the influence of three miRNAs on tumour growth. Down‐regulation of miR‐139‐5p, miR‐940 and miR‐193a‐5p was found in HCC. Overexpression of these miRNAs suppressed HCC cell viability and invasion, promoted apoptosis and inhibited tumour growth. SPOCK1, the common target gene of miR‐139‐5p, miR‐940 and miR‐193a‐5p, was overexpressed in HCC. SPOCK1 overexpression promoted proliferation and invasion, and restrained apoptosis of HCC cells. MiR‐139‐5p, miR‐940 and miR‐193a‐5p inhibited HCC development through targeting SPOCK1. 相似文献

Our study sought to clarify the effects of microRNA‐139‐5p (miR‐139‐5p) in the tumorigenesis and progression of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) by regulating HOXA9. MiR‐139‐5p and HOXA9 expression in OSCC tissues, tumour adjacent tissues, OSCC cells and normal cells were tested by qRT‐PCR. SAS and CAL‐27 cell lines were selected in among four OSCC cell lines and then transfected with miR‐139‐5p mimics, pEGFP‐HOXA9 and cotransfected with miR‐139‐5p mimics + pEGFP‐HOXA9. We used MTT, colony formation, transwell and wound healing assays to analyse cell viability, proliferation, invasion and migration. The target relationship between miR‐139‐5p and HOXA9 was verified by luciferase reporter assay and Western blot, respectively. MiR‐139‐5p was down‐regulated, whereas HOXA9 was up‐regulated in OSCC tissues and cells. The proliferation, invasion and migration ability of SAS and CAL‐27 cells in miR‐139‐5p mimics group were significantly weaker than those in the control group and the miR‐NC group (P < 0.01). MiR‐139‐5p can negatively regulate HOXA9. The proliferation, invasion and migration of SAS and CAL‐27 cells in the miR‐139‐5p mimics + pEGFP‐HOXA9 group were not significantly different from those in the blank control and negative control groups (P > 0.05). Our results indicated that miR‐139‐5p could directly inhibit HOXA9, which might be a potential mechanism in inhibiting the proliferation, invasiveness and migration of OSCC cells. 相似文献

Previous studies have implicated the attractive and promising role of miR‐590‐3p to restore the cardiac function following myocardial infarction (MI). However, the molecular mechanisms for how miR‐590‐3p involves in cardiac fibrosis remain largely unexplored. Using human cardiac fibroblasts (HCFs) as the cellular model, luciferase report assay, mutation, EdU assay and transwell migration assay were applied to investigate the biological effects of miR‐590‐3p on the proliferation, differentiation, migration and collagen synthesis of cardiac fibroblasts. We found that miR‐590‐3p significantly suppressed cell proliferation and migration of HCFs. The mRNA and protein expression levels of α‐SMA, Col1A1 and Col3A were significantly decreased by miR‐590‐3p. Moreover, miR‐590‐3p directly targeted at the 3’UTR of ZEB1 to repress the translation of ZEB1. Interfering with the expression of ZEB1 significantly decreased the cell proliferation, migration activity, mRNA and protein expressions of α‐SMA, Col1A1 and Col3A. Furthermore, the expressions of miR‐590‐3p and ZEB1 were identified in infarct area of MI model in pigs. Collectively, miR‐590‐3p suppresses the cell proliferation, differentiation, migration and collagen synthesis of cardiac fibroblasts by targeting ZEB1. These works will provide useful biological information for future studies on potential roles of miR‐590‐3p as the therapeutic target to recover cardiac function following MI. 相似文献

Although the non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the most malignant tumours worldwide, the mechanisms controlling NSCLC tumourigenesis remain unclear. Here, we find that the expression of miR‐520b is up‐regulated in NSCLC samples. Further studies have revealed that miR‐520b promotes the proliferation and metastasis of NSCLC cells. In addition, miR‐520b activates Hedgehog (Hh) pathway. Inhibitor of Hh pathway could relieve the oncogenic effect of miR‐520b upon NSCLC cells. Mechanistically, we demonstrate that miR‐520b directly targets SPOP 3′‐UTR and decreases SPOP expression, culminating in GLI2/3 stabilization and Hh pathway hyperactivation. Collectively, our findings unveil that miR‐520b promotes NSCLC tumourigenesis through SPOP‐GLI2/3 axis and provide miR‐520b as a potential diagnostic biomarker and therapeutic target for NSCLC. 相似文献

Our goal was to explore the function of miR‐552 and its potential target AJAP1 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) oncogenesis and progression. In this study, bioinformatics analysis was performed to detect abnormally expressed miRNAs. The relationship between miR‐552 and AJAP1 was validated using luciferase reporter assays. RT‐qPCR and Western blot assays were applied to explore the expression level of miR‐552, AJAP1 and epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) markers. HCC cell proliferation was examined using CCK8 assays, while migration and invasion were investigated using Transwell assays. Nude mouse tumourigenesis models were established to facilitate observation of HCC progression in vivo. Finally, prognostic analysis was performed to discover how the prognosis of HCC patients correlated with miR‐552 and AJAP1 expression. MiR‐552 overexpression in HCC cells promoted HCC cell migration, invasion and EMT by targeting/suppressing AJAP1. Poorer prognosis appeared in HCC patients with higher miR‐552 expression or lower AJAP1 levels. Our findings suggested that miR‐552 promotes HCC oncogenesis and progression by inhibiting AJAP1 expression. 相似文献

In this study, we investigated how miR‐10b‐3p regulated the proliferation, migration, invasion in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) at both in vitro and in vivo levels. CMTM5 was among the differentially expressed genes (data from TCGA). The expression of miR‐10b‐3p and CMTM5 was detected by qRT‐PCR and Western blot (WB). TargetScan was used to acquire the binding sites. Dual‐luciferase reporter gene assay was used to verify the direct target relationship between miR‐10b‐3p and CMTM5. WB analysis proved that miR‐10b‐3p suppressed CMTM5 expression. Furthermore, proliferation, invasion and migration of HCC cells were measured by MTT assay, colony formation assay, transwell assay and wound‐healing assay, respectively. Kaplan‐Meier plotter valued the overall survival of CMTM5. Finally, xenograft assay was also conducted to verify the effects of miR‐10b‐3p/CMTM5 axis in vivo. Up‐regulation of miR‐10b‐3p and down‐regulation of CMTM5 were detected in HCC tissues and cell lines. CMTM5 was verified as a target gene of miR‐10b‐3p. The overexpression of CMTM5 contributed to the suppression of the proliferative, migratory and invasive abilities of HCC cells. Moreover, the up‐regulation of miR‐10b‐3p and down‐regulation of CMTM5 were observed to be associated with worse overall survival. Lastly, we have confirmed the carcinogenesis‐related roles of miR‐10b‐3p and CMTM5 in vivo. We concluded that the up‐regulation of miR‐10b‐3p promoted the progression of HCC cells via targeting CMTM5. 相似文献

The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is frequently activated in a wide range of solid tumours and represents an important therapeutic target. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have recently been recognized as a rational and potential modality for anti‐EGFR therapies. However, more EGFR‐targeting miRNAs need to be explored. In this study, we identified a novel EGFR‐targeting miRNA, miRNA‐134 (miR‐134), in non‐small‐cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines. Luciferase assays confirmed that EGFR is a direct target of miR‐134. In addition, the overexpression of miR‐134 inhibited EGFR‐related signaling and suppressed NSCLC cells proliferation by inducing cell cycle arrest and/or apoptosis, suggesting that miR‐134 functions as a tumour suppressor in NSCLC. Further mechanistic investigation including RNAi and rescue experiments suggested that the down‐regulation of EGFR by miR‐134 partially contributes to the antiproliferative role of miR‐134. Last, in vivo experiments demonstrated that miR‐134 suppressed tumour growth of A549 xenograft in nude mice. Taken together, our findings suggest that miR‐134 inhibits non‐small cell lung cancer growth by targeting the EGFR. 相似文献
