Pre-eclampsia (PE) is a pregnancy-specific disease characterized by the occurrence of hypertension and proteinuria after two weeks of gestation. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as key regulators in PE development. This study aims to investigate the role of lncRNA, small nucleolar RNA host gene 5 (SNHG5), in the pathogenesis of PE. The expression of SNHG5 was significantly downregulated in placental tissues from patients with severe PE compared normal controls. Overexpression of SNHG5 promoted trophoblast (HTR-8/SVneo) cell proliferation, invasion, and migration, and flow cytometry results showed that SNHG5 overexpression inhibited apoptosis and caused a decrease of cell population at the G 0/G 1 phase and an increase of cell population at the S phase, while knockdown of SNHG5 had the opposite effects. The interaction between SNHG5 and miR-26a-5p was predicted by bioinformatics analysis and confirmed by luciferase reporter assay and RNA immunoprecipitation, and miR-26a-5p was negatively regulated by SNHG5; miR-26a-5p expression was upregulated in PE placental tissues and was inversely correlated with SNHG5 expression. Furthermore, miR-26a-5p was predicted to target the 3′ untranslated region of N-cadherin, which was confirmed by luciferase reporter assay, and miR-26a-5p overexpression suppressed N-cadherin expression in HTR-8/SVneo cells. N-cadherin mRNA expression was downregulated in PE placental tissues and was positively correlated with SNHG5 expression. Both overexpression of miR-26a-5p and knockdown of N-cadherin suppressed HTR-8/SVneo cell invasion and migration, and also attenuated the effects of SNHG5 on the cellular functions of HTR-8/SVneo cells. In conclusion, our study suggested that SNHG5 promotes trophoblast cell proliferation, invasion, and migration at least partly via regulating the miR-26a-5p/N-cadherin axis. 相似文献

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been elucidated to play vital roles in the phenotype of trophoblast cells. Nevertheless, the effect of SNHG1 has not been investigated on trophoblast cells in recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA). We aim to investigate the effect of SNHG1 on the phenotype of trophoblast cells during RSA. The RSA mice were established by mating female CBA/J mice with male DBA/2 mice. Microarray analysis was applied in RSA mice, and SNHG1 was identified as a significantly downregulated lncRNA. SNHG1 improved pregnancy outcome and reduced embryo resorption in RSA mice. Trophoblast cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and invasion were investigated by CCK8, EdU, TUNEL, wound healing, and Transwell assays. SNHG1 promoted proliferation, migration, and invasion of trophoblast cells, and reduced apoptosis. Mechanistically, SNHG1 bound to miR-183-5p in trophoblast cells. Moreover, miR-183-5p directly targeted ZEB2. Rescue experiment showed that ZEB2 silencing reversed the ameliorative effect of SNHG1 on pregnancy outcome and the promotion of trophoblast activity in RSA mice by impaired the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. In conclusion, we found that SNHG1 plays a critical role in the progression of RSA via miR-183-5p/ZEB2 and Wnt/β-catenin signaling. It has potential to be a therapeutic marker of RSA. 相似文献

Recent studies have demonstrated a number of molecular mechanisms contributing to the initiation of cardiac hypertrophy response to pressure overload. IGF1R (insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor), an important oncogene, is overexpressed in hypertrophic heart and mediates the hypertrophic pathology process. In this study, we applied with liposomal magnetofection that potentiated gene transfection by applying an external magnetic field to enhance its transfection efficiency. Liposomal magnetofection provided high efficiency in transgene expression in vivo. In vivo, IGF1R-specific-shRNA (small-hairpin RNA) by magnetofection inhibited IGF1R protein expression by 72.2±6.8, 80.7±9.6 and 84.5±5.6%, at 24, 48 and 72 h, respectively, after pGFPshIGF1R injection, indicating that liposomal magnetofection is a promising method that allows the targeting of gene therapy for heart failure. Furthermore, we found that the treated animals (liposomal magnetofection with shIGF1R) showed reduced septal and posterior wall thickness, reduced HW:BWs (heart weight-to-body weights) compared with controls. Moreover, we also found that liposomal magnetofection-based shIGF1R transfection decreased the expression level of p-ERK (phosphorylated extracellular-signal-regulated kinase)1/2, p-AKT1 (phosphorylated protein kinase B1) compared with untreated hearts. These results suggested that liposomal magnetofection-mediated IGF1R-specific-shRNA may be a promising method, and suppression the IGF1R expression inhibited norepinephrine-induced cardiac hypertrophic process via inhibiting PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase)/AKT pathway. 相似文献

Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) small nucleolar RNA host gene 1 (SNHG1) has been demonstrated to be upregulated and play a crucial role in the pathology of Parkinson's disease (PD). However, the exact role of SNHG1 and its underlying mechanisms in PD remains elusive. In this study, we found that SNHG1 and glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta (GSK3β) were upregulated, but miR-15b-5p was downregulated in 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium ion (MPP+)-treated SH-SY5Y cells. The upregulation of SNHG1 enhanced MPP+-induced cellular toxicity in SH-SY5Y cells, as shown by decreased cell viability, increased ROS production, and increased number of TdT-mediated dUTP Nick-End labeling-positive cells, accompanied with the upregulation of cleaved caspase 3 and elevation of cytochrome C release. Meanwhile, SNHG1 knockdown presented the converse effects. SNHG1 was demonstrated to interact with miR-15b-5p. Moreover, SNHG1 could attenuate the inhibitory effects of miR-15b-5p on MPP+-induced cytotoxicity and production of ROS. Besides, GSK3β was identified as a direct target of miR-15b-5p. The inhibitory effects of SNHG1 knockdown or miR-15b-5p overexpression on MPP+-induced cytotoxicity and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production were abrogated by upregulation of GSK3β. Taken together, these results demonstrate that upregulated lncRNA SNHG1 promotes MPP+-induced cytotoxicity and ROS production through the miR-15b-5p/GSK3β axis in human dopaminergic SH-SY5Y cells, suggesting that SNHG1 may act as a potential therapeutic target for PD treatment in the future. 相似文献

Increasing evidence have proved that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play significant roles in tumorigenesis and development of various cancers. However, the effect of small nucleolar RNA host gene 20 (SNHG20) on the progression of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) remains to be discovered. Herein, we aim to find out the function and the possible mechanism of SNHG20 in ESCC progression. In our study, we demonstrate that SNHG20 is markedly upregulated in ESCC tissues and cell lines. Besides, the level of SNHG20 is closely associated with tumor size, lymph node metastasis, TNM stage, and tumor grade. In addition, SNHG20 level is an independent predictor for clinical outcomes of ESCC patients. Then the gain- and loss-of-function assays reveal that SNHG20 overexpression promotes cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition as well as represses apoptosis, whereas depletion of SNHG20 exhibits opposite effects. Moreover, we uncover that SNHG20 modulates the expression of ataxia telangiectasia–mutated kinase (p-ATM), p-JAK1/2, and programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) in ESCC cells and ATM upregulation restores the suppressive effect of SNHG20 inhibition on ESCC progression. Therefore, we conclude that SNHG20 serves as a carcinogen in ESCC by promoting growth and metastasis via ATM-JAK-PD-L1 pathway, supplying a possibly effective therapeutic target for ESCC. 相似文献

Dysregulated long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) play key roles in the development of human cancers. The lncRNA plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 (PVT1) is reported to be an oncogene in a variety of cancers. However, the roles of PVT1-5 and its related miRNAs in lung cancer are poorly understood. In this study, we found that PVT1-5 expression was significantly increased in lung cancer tissues and cell lines. By using biotin-labeled lncRNA-PVT1-5 probe for miRNA in vivo precipitation (miRIP) in lung cancer cells and dual-luciferase reporterassays, we identified that miR-126 was associated with lncRNA-PVT1-5. Furthermore, knockdown of lncRNA-PVT1-5 in cells could down-regulate the expression of SLC7A5, the target of oncogenic miR-126, resulting in the cell proliferation. Conversely, inhibiting the expression of miR-126 markedly increased the expression of SLC7A5 and alleviated cell proliferation inhibition. Thus, our results indicated that lncRNA-PVT1-5 may function as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) for miR-126 to promote cell proliferation by regulating the miR-126/SLC7A5 pathway, suggesting that lncRNA-PVT1-5 plays a crucial role in lung cancer progression and lncRNA-PVT1-5/miR-126/SLC7A5 regulatory network may shed light on tumorigenesis in lung cancer. 相似文献

Abnormal long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been detected in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Here, we focused on lncRNA ZNF667-AS1 and its downstream mechanism in ESCC progression. Differentially expressed lncRNAs in ESCC were predicted by bioinformatics analysis. ZNF667-AS1, microRNA-1290 (miR-1290), and prune homolog 2 with BCH domain (PRUNE2) expression was determined with their relationship in cell biological processes analyzed also by means of gain- and loss-of-function assays. Xenograft mouse models were performed to re-produce the in vitro findings. We found a decline in ZNF667-AS1 expression in ESCC tissues and cell lines. ZNF667-AS1 overexpression indicated a favorable prognosis of ESCC sufferers. ZNF667-AS1 overexpression suppressed ESCC cell malignant potentials. ZNF667-AS1 reduced miR-1290 to result in upregulation of the miR-1290 target gene PRUNE2. The inhibiting property of ZNF667-AS1 on the malignant characteristics of ESCC cells was achieved by disrupting the miR-1290-mediated downregulation of PRUNE2. ZNF667-AS1 suppressed the tumorigenesis of ESCC in vivo. Collectively, our study demonstrates that ZNF667-AS1 can function as a tumor suppressor in ESCC by upregulating PRUNE2 and downregulating miR-1290. 相似文献

Molecular and structural analysis of C4-specific PEPC isoform from Pennisetum glaucum plays a role in stress adaptation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
As an activator of adenylate cyclase, the neuropeptide Pituitary Adenylate Cyclase Activating Peptide (PACAP) impacts levels of cyclic AMP, a key second messenger available in brain cells. PACAP is involved in certain adult behaviors. To elucidate PACAP interactions, a compendium of microarrays representing mRNA expression in the adult mouse whole brain was pooled from the Phenogen database for analysis. A regulatory network was computed based on mutual information between gene pairs using gene expression data across the compendium. Clusters among genes directly linked to PACAP, and probable interactions between corresponding proteins were computed. Database “experts” affirmed some of the inferred relationships. The findings suggest ADCY7 is probably the adenylate cyclase isoform most relevant to PACAP's action. They also support intervening roles for kinases including GSK3B, PI 3-kinase, SGK3 and AMPK. Other high-confidence interactions are hypothesized for future testing. This new information has implications for certain behavioral and other disorders. 相似文献
