本文应用大鼠心肌细胞缺氧/复氧损伤模型,探讨microRNA-21(miR-21)在大鼠心肌缺氧复氧损伤中的作用及其对细胞自噬的影响.缺氧复氧后,RT-PCR检测发现心肌miR-21表达上调(P0.05),流式细胞术检测表明细胞凋亡增加,RT-PCR及蛋白质印迹(Western blot)检测发现p62显著下调而beclin-1显著上调(P0.05),提示缺氧复氧诱导心肌细胞凋亡和自噬异常.脂质体转染miR-21 mimic后,细胞凋亡显著增加(P0.05),p62显著上调而beclin-1显著下调(P0.05),而转染miR-21抑制剂引起相反结果,提示miR-21在心肌缺氧复氧损伤中具有促进细胞凋亡、抑制细胞自噬的作用.生物信息学预测显示,Rab11a的3′-UTR含有miR-21的结合位点,双荧光素酶基因报告系统及Rab11a过表达实验表明Rab11a是miR-21的靶基因之一.心肌过表达Rab11a能减少缺氧复氧后miR-21介导的细胞凋亡及自噬.由此表明,在大鼠心肌缺氧复氧损伤中,miR-21可能通过负调控Rab11a促进心肌细胞凋亡,抑制心肌细胞自噬.本研究可能为预防和治疗心肌缺血再灌注损伤提供新策略.

miR-21 promotes proliferation and inhibits apoptosis of hepatic stellate cells through targeting PTEN/PI3K/AKT pathway

Abstract

To investigate the effect of microRNA 21 (miR-21) on hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) proliferation and apoptosis, and further to study its potential mechanisms. LX-2 cells were divided into miR-21 mimic group (Mimic), miR-21 mimic negative control group (NM), miR-21 inhibitor group (Inhibitor), miR-21 inhibitor negative control group (NC), and blank control group (Control). The cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8 assay and the cell migration and invasion were detected by scratch and transwell assay. Cell cycle and apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry. The levels of interleukin (IL)-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, and transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Proliferation, apoptosis, and phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN)/phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT) signaling pathway related genes and proteins were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and western blot, respectively. The cells proliferation, migration, and invasion were promoted in Mimic group. The levels of IL-6, TNF-α, and TGF-β1 were increased after miR-21 administration. The expression of α-smooth muscle actin (SMA) and collagen 1 (Colla1) were increased, while Bax/B-cell lymphoma (Bcl)-2 ratio and programed cell death 4 (PDCD4) were reduced after miR?21 treatment. Meanwhile, the mRNA and protein expression of PTEN were reduced and PI3K/AKT pathway been promoted. Our study demonstrated that miR-21 could promote proliferation and inhibit apoptosis of HSCs, and its mechanism may be related to PTEN/PI3K/AKT pathway.     

MicroRNA-384 regulates cell proliferation and apoptosis through directly targeting WISP1 in laryngeal cancer

Laryngeal cancer (LC) is an increasingly common malignant tumors of head and neck cancer. Aberrant expression of microRNA (miRNA) is closely related with LC development. In the current study, we investigated the biological function and underlying molecular mechanism of miR-384 in LC. The results showed that the miR-384 expression was markedly downregulated in LC tissue and cell lines (TU212 and TU686) as compared with that of adjacent nontumor tissues and a normal human bronchial epithelial cell line. Next, we performed gain-of-function and loss-of-function experiments in the TU212 and TU686 cells by transfecting the cells with miR-384 mimics, miR-384 inhibitor, or miRNA control. Moreover, results showed that miR-384 mimic remarkably inhibited LC cell proliferation, which was notably decreased by miR-384 inhibitor. Furthermore, miR-384 mimics notably increased the amounts of DNA fragmentation from the apoptotic cells (a hallmark of apoptosis) and the caspase-3 activity, whereas miR-384 inhibitor resulted in a decline of DNA fragmentation and the caspase-3 activity compared with its control. In addition, a dual-luciferase reporter assay confirmed that Wnt-induced secreted protein-1 (WISP1) gene was a direct target of miR-384. MiR-384 mimic remarkably inhibited the messenger RNA and protein expression of WISP1, which was upregulated by miR-384 inhibitor as compared to its control. WISP1 knockdown by small interfering RNA inhibited LC cell proliferation and promoted cell apoptosis. WISP1 overexpression partly abrogates the effect of miR-384 overexpression. Taken together, these data indicate that miR-384 regulates LC cell proliferation and apoptosis through targeting WISP1 signaling pathway, providing a novel insight into the LC treatment.     

Apigenin suppresses TGF-β1-induced cardiac fibroblast differentiation and collagen synthesis through the downregulation of HIF-1α expression by miR-122-5p

BackgroundApigenin can reduce cardiomyocyte hypertrophy by downregulating hypoxia inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α) expression. However, its effects on cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) and its exact inhibitory molecular mechanisms on HIF-1α remain unclear.PurposeThis study aims to examine the effects of apigenin on cell proliferation and differentiation, microRNA-122-5p (miR-122-5p) expression, and HIF-1α-mediated Smad signaling pathway in transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1)-stimulated CFs and cardiac fibrosis and to investigate the relationship between miR-122-5p and HIF-1α.MethodsThe TGF-β1-stimulated CFs, the combination of TGF-β1-stimulated and miR-122-5p mimic-transfected CFs, the combination of TGF-β1-stimulated and miR-122-5p inhibitor-transfected CFs, and the isoproterenol-induced cardiac fibrotic mice were used and treated with or without apigenin. The recombinant lentiviruses overexpressing HIF-1α vector and miR-122-5p mimic were co-transfected to observe their interaction. Related mRNA and protein expressions and myocardial collagen were determined. The luciferase reporter gene that contains HIF-1α wild type or mutant type 3’-UTR was used, and the luciferase activity was determined to verify the direct link between miR-122-5p and HIF-1α.ResultsIn the TGF-β1-stimulated CFs, apigenin treatment increased the miR-122-5p and Smad7 expressions and decreased the HIF-1α, α-smooth muscle actin, collagen Ⅰ/Ⅲ, Smad2/3, and p-Smad2/3 expressions. Similar and inverse results were observed in the miR-122-5p mimic- and inhibitor-transfected CFs, respectively. Moreover, the miR-122-5p mimic could antagonize the effects of TGF-β1 in the TGF-β1 and miR-122-5p mimic-combined CFs, and the miR-122-5p inhibitor could enhance the effects of TGF-β1 in the TGF-β1 and miR-122-5p inhibitor-combined CFs. In the two aforementioned cell models, the addition of apigenin could further enhance the effects of miR-122-5p mimic and partially reverse the effects of miR-122-5p inhibitor. After treatment of HIF-1α-transfected CFs with miR-122-5p mimic, the HIF-1α expression decreased. Further study confirmed that HIF-1α was a direct target of miR-122-5p. Apigenin also decreased the myocardial collagen accumulation in cardiac fibrotic mice.ConclusionApigenin could suppress the differentiation and collagen synthesis of TGF-β1-stimulated CFs and mouse cardiac fibrosis, and its mechanisms were related to the increment of miR-122-5p expression and subsequent downregulation of HIF-1α expression via direct interaction, which might finally result in the decrements of Smad2/3 and p-Smad2/3 expressions and increment of Smad7 expression.

Biomechanical indices of stiffness, stress, and maximum load-to-failure, and mRNA and protein levels of tendon-related genes could be improved by rhPDGF-BB or hADSCs alone, and could be further improved by rhPDGF-BB + hADSCs. rhPDGF-BB and hADSCs downregulated the expression of miR-363 and upregulated the levels of p-PI3K/Akt, and rhPDGF-BB + hADSCs further strengthened these effects. In addition, rhPDGF-BB promoted the proliferation of hADSCs in vitro and upregulated the expression of tendon-related genes. miR-363 mimic downregulated the levels of p-PI3K/Akt, miR-363 inhibitor upregulated the levels of p-PI3K/Akt, and miR-363 mimic and PI3K/Akt pathway inhibitor LY294002 reversed the positive effect of rhPDGF-BB on the proliferation of hADSCs, which suggested that rhPDGF-BB promoted the proliferation of hADSCs via miR-363/PI3K/Akt pathway. Biomechanical indices and tendon-related genes could be improved by rhPDGF-BB and hADSCs. Moreover, rhPDGF-BB promoted the proliferation of hADSCs via miR-363/PI3K/Akt pathway, indicating that rhPDGF-BB combined with ADSCs could treat Achilles tendinitis via miR-363/PI3K/Akt pathway.
