Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a chronic, progressive and irreversible disease, needs long-term treatment. Bicyclol was found to play a great role in pulmonary fibrosis, and the present study is to explore how bicyclol affects IPF with the involvement of microRNA-455-3p (miR-455-3p) and Bax. Bleomycin (BLM) was used to induce the IPF model in Sprague-Dawley rats to detect the expression of miR-455-3p, Bax, and B-cell lymphoma factor 2 (Bcl-2). Moreover, to further investigate the mechanisms of bicyclol, the BLM-induced fibrotic cell model was used after the lung epithelial cells HPAEpiC received miR-455-3p knockout treatment. The rats were then treated with vehicle and bicyclol, respectively. The apoptosis of fibrotic cells and Bax/Bcl-2 were identified. Inhibition function of bicyclol was optimal at a dose of 150 mg/kg. Bicyclol inhibited cell apoptosis and reduced Bax/Bcl-2 expression in rats. miR-455-3p could potentially bind to Bax gene. Bicyclol reduced the levels of methylenedioxyamphetamine, superoxide dismutase, and glutathione in rat lung tissue, inhibited the apoptosis of rats with IPF and upregulated miR-455-3p expression. In vitro studies showed that bicyclol significantly promoted miR-455-3p expression in HPAEpiC fibrosis. Bicyclol inhibited fibrosis-induced apoptosis of HPAEpiC in alveolar epithelial cells through promoting miR-455-3p, which inhibited Bax expression in IPF. Bicyclol may suppress the apoptosis of alveolar epithelial cells by upregulating miR-455-3p. This study laid a theoretical foundation for further understanding of IPF and searching for new molecular therapeutic targets.  相似文献

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) remains the leading cause of blindness in adults with diabetes mellitus. Numerous microRNAs (miRNAs) have been identified to modulate the pathogenesis of DR. The main purpose of this study was to evaluate the potential roles of miR-455-5p in high glucose (HG)-treated retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells and underlying mechanisms. Our present investigation discovered that the expression of miR-455-5p was apparently downregulated in ARPE-19 cells stimulated with HG. In addition, forced expression of miR-455-5p markedly enhanced cell viability and restrained HG-induced apoptosis accompanied by decreased BCL2-associated X protein (Bax)/B-cell leukemia/lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) ratio and expression of apoptotic marker cleaved caspase-3 during HG challenged. Subsequently, augmentation of miR-455-5p remarkably alleviated HG-triggered oxidative stress injury as reflected by decreased the production of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and malondialdehyde (MDA) content as well as NADPH oxidase 4 expression, concomitant with enhanced the activities of superoxide dismutase, catalase, and GPX stimulated with HG. Furthermore, enforced expression of miR-455-5p effectively ameliorated HG-stimulated inflammatory response as exemplified by repressing the secretion of inflammatory cytokines interleukin 1β (IL-1β), IL-6, and tumour necrosis factor-α in ARPE-19 cells challenged by HG. Most importantly, we successfully identified suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3) as a direct target gene of miR-455-5p, and miR-455-5p negatively regulated the expression of SOCS3. Mechanistically, restoration of SOCS3 abrogated the beneficial effects of miR-455-5p on apoptosis, accumulation of ROS, and inflammatory factors production in response to HG. Taken together, these findings demonstrated that miR-455-5p relieved HG-induced damage through repressing apoptosis, oxidant stress, and inflammatory response by targeting SOCS3. The study gives evidence that miR-455-5p may serve as a new potential therapeutic agent for DR treatment.  相似文献

The tumor-suppressing role of miR-455-3p has been reported in lung cancer, but the working mechanism remains to be fully elucidated. This study aims to explore the possible mechanism of miR-455-3p in regulating epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) progression and angiogenesis in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells.The expressions of miR-455-3p, HSF1, GLS1, and EMT-related proteins (E-cadherin, N-cadherin, vimentin, and Snail-1) in both NSCLC tissues and cell lines were determined by RT-qPCR and western blot. After cell transfection, cell proliferation and angiogenesis ability on NSCLC cells were assessed by MTT and tube formation assay. The binding of miR-455-3p with HSF1 was measured by luciferase reporter gene assay, while the interaction between HSF1 and GLS1 was determined by co-immunoprecipitation assay (Co-IP).HSF1 was highly expressed in NSCLC tissues and cells. Inhibition of HSF1 expression or overexpression of miR-455-3p in NSCLC cells can suppress cell proliferation, angiogenesis ability, and EMT progression. miR-455-3p was found to negatively regulate HSF1 expression. Co-transfection of miR-455-3p overexpression and HSF1 inhibition in NSCLC cells showed that miR-455-3p can partially counteract the effect of HSF1 in NSCLC cells. HSF1 can interact with GLS1 and elevate the expression of GLS1. GLS1 can partially abolish the suppressive effect of miR-455-3p in NSCLC cells.miR-455-3p can bind HSF1 to suppress the GLS1 in NSCLC cells, therefore suppressing EMT progression and angiogenesis of NSCLC cells.  相似文献

Tetramethylpyrazine (TMP) has been widely used in China as a drug for the treatment of various diseases. Recent studies have suggested that TMP has a protective effect on ischemic neuronal damage. However, the exact mechanism is still unclear. This study aims to investigate the mechanism of TMP mediated ischemic hippocampal neurons injury induced by oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD). The effect of TMP on hippocampal neurons viability was detected by MTT assay, LDH release assay and apoptosis rate was measured by flow cytometry. TMP significantly suppressed neuron apoptosis in a concentration-dependent manner. TMP could significantly reduce the elevated levels of connexin32 (Cx32) induced by OGD. Knockdown of Cx32 by siRNA attenuated OGD injury. Moreover, our study showed that viability was increased in siRNA-Cx32-treated-neurons, and neuron apoptosis was suppressed by activating Bcl-2 expression and inhibiting Bax expression. Over expression of Cx32 could decrease neurons viability and increase LDH release. Furthermore, OGD increased phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and p38, whose inhibitors relieved the neuron injury and Cx32 up-regulation. Taken together, TMP can reverse the OGD-induced Cx32 expression and cell apoptosis via the ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK pathways.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

MiR-1306-5p is involved in the progression of acute heart failure, but its role in ischemic stroke remains unclear. Here, SH-SY5Y cells were exposed to oxygen–glucose deprivation (OGD) for 4, 8, and 12 h, respectively, and then reoxygenation for 12 h to construct OGD/R induced cell injury model. Cell viability, cell death, and cell apoptosis were assessed with CCK-8 assay, LDH assay, ?ow cytometry, and caspase-3 activity assay. The target gene of miR-1306-5p was confirmed by luciferase reporter assay. We found miR-1306-5p expression was significantly down-regulated in OGD/R-induced SH-SY5Y cell model. Moreover, miR-1306-5p protected SH-SY5Y cell against OGD/R-induced injury. Mechanistically, Bcl2-interacting killer (BIK) was the direct target gene of miR-1306-5p. Furthermore, BIK knockdown mimicked, while overexpression reversed the protective effects of miR-1306-5p against OGD/R induced injury. Our findings thus provide an experimental basis miR-1306-5p targeting BIK-based therapy for cerebral I/R injury.  相似文献

Cellular therapy with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) protects cortical neurons against hypoxic-ischemic injury of stroke. Although sorts of efforts have been made to confirm the neuroprotective effect of MSCs on neurons against hypoxic-ischemic injury, the mechanism is until now far away from clear. Here in this study, oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD)-injured neuron model was applied to mimic the neuronal hypoxic-ischemic injury in vitro. Co-culturing with MSCs in a transwell co-culture system, the OGD injured neurons were rescued by 75.0 %. Further data demonstrated that co-culturing with MSCs protected the cortical neurons from the OGD-induced parthanatos by alleviating apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF) nuclear translocation; attenuated the neuronal necroptosis by down-regulating the expression of the two essential kinases in necroptosis, receptor interacting protein kinase1 (RIP1) and 3 (RIP3); rescued the neurons from apoptosis by deactivating caspase-3; whilst performed no significant influence on OGD-induced neuronal autophagy, according to its failed regulation on Beclin1. In conclusion, MSCs potentially protect the cortical neurons from OGD-injury in vitro, through rescuing neurons from the cell death of parthanatos, necroptosis, and apoptosis, but not autophagy, which could provide some evidence to the mechanism explanation on stem cell treatment for ischemic stroke.  相似文献

The purpose of our study is to understand the protective role of miR-455-3p against abnormal amyloid precursor protein (APP) processing, amyloid beta (Aβ) formation, defective mitochondrial biogenesis/dynamics and synaptic damage in AD progression. In-silico analysis of miR-455-3p has identified the APP gene as a putative target. Using mutant APP cells, miR-455-3p construct, biochemical and molecular assays, immunofluorescence and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analyses, we studied the protective effects of miR-455-3p on – 1) APP regulation, amyloid beta (Aβ)(1–40) & (1–42) levels, mitochondrial biogenesis & dynamics; 3) synaptic activities and 4) cell viability & apoptosis. Our luciferase reporter assay confirmed the binding of miR-455-3p at the 3’UTR of APP gene. Immunoblot, sandwich ELISA and immunostaining analyses revealed that the reduced levels of the mutant APP, Aβ(1–40) & Aβ(1–42), and C99 by miR-455-3p. We also found the reduced levels of mRNA and proteins of mitochondrial biogenesis (PGC1α, NRF1, NRF2, and TFAM) and synaptic genes (synaptophysin and PSD95) in mutant APP cells; on the other hand, mutant APP cells that express miR-455-3p showed increased mRNA and protein levels of biogenesis and synaptic genes. Additionally, expression of mitochondrial fission proteins (DRP1 and FIS1) were decreased while the fusion proteins (OPA1, Mfn1 and Mfn2) were increased by miR-455-3p. Our TEM analysis showed a decrease in mitochondria number and an increase in the size of mitochondrial length in mutant APP cells transfected with miR-455-3p. Based on these observations, we cautiously conclude that miR-455-3p regulate APP processing and protective against mutant APP-induced mitochondrial and synaptic abnormalities in AD.  相似文献

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been reported to play critical roles in the occurrence, progression, and treatment of many cardiovascular diseases. However, the molecular mechanism by which miRNA regulates target gene expression in ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is not entirely clear. MiR-340-5p was reported to be downregulated in acute ischemic stroke. However, it still remains unknown whether miR-340-5p is mediated in the pathogenesis process of I/R injury after AMI. In the present study, male C57BL/6 J mice and H9C2 cardiomyocytes were used as experimental models. Real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis, Western blot analysis, and the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end-labeling immunofluorescence staining assay were conducted to examine related indicators in the study. We confirmed that the expression of miR-340-5p is downregulated after I/R in AMI mice and hypoxia/reperfusion (H/R)-induced cardiomyocytes. miR-340-5p could inhibit apoptosis and oxidative stress in H/R-induced H9C2 cells via downregulating activator 1 (Act1). The inhibiting action of miR-340-5p on H/R-induced apoptosis and oxidative stress in cardiomyocytes was partially reversed after Act1 overexpression. Moreover, the results showed that the NF-κB pathway may be mediated in the role of miR-340-5p on H/R-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis and oxidative stress. We demonstrated that upregulation of miR-340-5p suppresses apoptosis and oxidative stress induced by H/R in H9C2 cells by inhibiting Act1. Therapeutic strategies that target miR-340-5p, Act1, and the NF-κB pathway could be beneficial for the treatment of I/R injury after AMI.  相似文献

Long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in the pathogenesis of brain and neurodegenerative disorders. As far as we know, the functions and potential mechanisms of small nucleolar RNA host gene 6 (SNHG6) in ischaemic stroke have not been explored. This study aimed to examine the functional role of SNHG6 in the ischaemic stroke. Middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) in mice and the oxygen glucose deprivation (OGD)‐induced injury in neuronal cells were applied to mimic ischaemic stroke. TTC staining, quantitative real‐time PCR, cell apoptosis assay, caspase‐3 activity assay, Western blot, RNA immunoprecipitation and luciferase reporter assay were performed to evaluate the function and possible mechanisms of SNHG6 in the pathogenesis of ischaemic stroke. The results show that SNHG6 expression was significantly increased both OGD‐induced neuronal cells and MCAO model mice. In vitro results showed that inhibition of SNHG6 increased cell viability, inhibited cell apoptosis and caspase‐3 activity in OGD‐induced neuronal cells. Consistently, knockdown of SNHG6 reduced brain infarct size and improved neurological scores in the MCAO mice. Mechanistic study further revealed that SNHG6 functioned as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) for miR‐181c‐5p, which in turn repressed its downstream target of Bcl‐2 interacting mediator of cell death (BIM) and inhibiting cell apoptosis. This study revealed a novel function of SNHG6 in the modulating neuronal apoptosis in the ischaemic stroke model, and the role of SNHG6 in the regulating of neuronal apoptosis was at least partly via targeting miR‐181c‐5p/BIM signalling pathway.  相似文献
