Downregulation of lncRNA MEG3 and miR-770-5p inhibit cell migration and proliferation in Hirschsprung's disease.

ABSTRACT: The long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) MEG3 is involved in various biological processes including cell migration and cell proliferation. In present study, it was found that MEG3 and the intronic miR-770-5p were decreased in samples from HSCR patients. Besides, knockdown of MEG3 and miR-770-5p suppressed cell migration and proliferation, while cell cycle and apoptosis were not affected in human 293T and SH-SY5Y cells. SRGAP1 mRNA and protein upregulation was inversely correlated with miR-770-5p expression in tissue samples and cell lines, which was confirmed to be a target gene of miR-770-5p by dual-luciferase reporter assay. Moreover, silencing of SRGAP1 rescued the inhibition of cell migration and proliferation induced by MEG3 siRNA and miR-770-5p inhibition. The present study elucidates a novel mechanism of the development of HSCR and shows that the MEG3/miR-770-5p/SRGAP1 pathway plays a vital role in the pathogenesis of HSCR.

Project description:BackgroundSchwann cells acquire a repair phenotype upon peripheral nerve injury (PNI), generating an optimal microenvironment that drives nerve repair. Multiple microRNAs (miRNAs) show differential expression in the damaged peripheral nerve, with critical regulatory functions in Schwann cell features. This study examined the time-dependent expression of miR-195-5p following PNI and demonstrated a marked dysregulation of miR-195-5p in the damaged sciatic nerve.MethodsCCK-8 and EdU assays were used to evaluate the effect of miR-195-5 on Schwann cell viability and proliferation. Schwann cell migration was tested using Transwell and wound healing assays. The miR-195-5p agomir injection experiment was used to evaluate the function of miR-195-5p in vivo. The potential regulators and effects of miR-195-5p were identified through bioinformatics evaluation. The relationship between miR-195-5p and its target was tested using double fluorescence reporter gene analysis.ResultsIn Schwann cells, high levels of miR-195-5p decreased viability and proliferation, while suppressed levels had the opposite effects. However, elevated miR-195-5p promoted Schwann cell migration determined by the Transwell and wound healing assays. In vivo injection of miR-195-5p agomir into rat sciatic nerves promote axon elongation after peripheral nerve injury by affecting Schwann cell distribution and myelin preservation. Bioinformatic assessment further revealed potential regulators and effectors for miR-195-5p, which were utilized to build a miR-195-5p-centered competing endogenous RNA network. Furthermore, miR-195-5p directly targeted cAMP response element binding protein-like 2 (Crebl2) mRNA via its 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) and downregulated Crebl2. Mechanistically, miR-195-5p modulated Schwann cell functions by repressing Crebl2.ConclusionThe above findings suggested a vital role for miR-195-5p/Crebl2 in the regulation of Schwann cell phenotype after sciatic nerve damage, which may contribute to peripheral nerve regeneration.
