Changes in long non-coding RNA transcriptomic profiles after ischemia-reperfusion injury in rat spinal cord.

ABSTRACT: With the aim of exploring expression profiles and biological functions of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) and mRNAs after spinal cord ischemia-reperfusion injury (SCII), differentially expressed lncRNAs (DElncRNAs) and mRNAs (DEmRNAs) in rat spinal cords were identified following SCII through high-throughput RNA sequencing. In total, 1,455 lncRNAs and 6,707 mRNAs were observed to be differentially expressed (-Fold Change- ? 2 and P < 0.05) after SCII, including 761 up-regulated and 694 down-regulated lncRNAs, 3,772 up-regulated and 2,935 down-regulated mRNAs. Gene ontology and KEGG pathway analysis showed that the DElncRNAs and DEmRNAs were implicated in many different biological processes and pathways. Further, lncRNA-mRNA co-expression networks were built to explore the potential roles of these DElncRNAs. Our results demonstrate genome-wide lncRNA and mRNA expression patterns in spinal cords after SCII, which may play vital roles in post-SCII pathophysiological processes. These findings are important for future functional research on the lncRNAs involved in SCII and might be critical for providing new insight into identification of potential targets for SCII therapy.

Project description:Purpose To evaluate whether noninvasive molecular imaging technologies targeting myeloperoxidase (MPO) can reveal early inflammation associated with spinal cord injury after thoracic aortic ischemia-reperfusion (TAR) in mice. Materials and Methods The study was approved by the institutional animal care and use committee. C57BL6 mice that were 8-10 weeks old underwent TAR (n = 55) or sham (n = 26) surgery. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging (n = 6) or single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/computed tomography (CT) (n = 15) studies targeting MPO activity were performed after intravenous injection of MPO sensors (bis-5-hydroxytryptamide-tetraazacyclododecane [HT]-diethyneletriaminepentaacetic acid [DTPA]-gadolinium or indium 111-bis-5-HT-DTPA, respectively). Immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry were used to identify myeloid cells and neuronal loss. Proinflammatory cytokines, keratinocyte chemoattractant (KC), and interleukin 6 (IL-6) were measured with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Statistical analyses were performed by using nonparametric tests and the Pearson correlation coefficient. P < .05 was considered to indicate a significant difference. Results Myeloid cells infiltrated into the injured cord at 6 and 24 hours after TAR. MR imaging confirmed the presence of ischemic lesions associated with mild MPO-mediated enhancement in the thoracolumbar spine at 24 hours compared with the sham procedure. SPECT/CT imaging of MPO activity showed marked MPO-sensor retention at 6 hours (P = .003) that continued to increase at 24 hours after TAR (P = .0001). The number of motor neurons decreased substantially at 24 hours after TAR (P < .01), which correlated inversely with in vivo inflammatory changes detected at molecular imaging (r = 0.64, P = .0099). MPO was primarily secreted by neutrophils, followed by lymphocyte antigen 6 complexhigh monocytes and/or macrophages. There were corresponding increased levels of proinflammatory cytokines KC (P = .0001) and IL-6 (P = .0001) that mirrored changes in MPO activity. Conclusion MPO is a suitable imaging biomarker for identifying and tracking inflammatory damage in the spinal cord after TAR in a mouse model. © RSNA, 2016 Online supplemental material is available for this article.
