MicroRNA-429/Cxcl1 Axis Protective Against Oxygen Glucose Deprivation/Reoxygenation-Induced Injury in Brain Microvascular Endothelial Cells.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

The objective of the present work was to study the role of Cxcl1 in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury and to in-depth explore its pathogenesis.

Methods

The expression of Cxcl1 based on the public data was analyzed. Then, we constructed an oxygen glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) model in vitro using mice brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs) to simulate cerebral I/R in vivo.

Results

The results of quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction assay uncovered that Cxcl1 showed higher expression while miR-429 showed lower expression in BMECs damaged by OGD/R, whereas overexpression of Cxcl1 or inhibition of miR-429 expression can strengthen this effect. Hereafter, through dual luciferase reporter assay, we verified that miR-429 directly targets Cxcl1 and negatively regulates Cxcl1 expression. Furthermore, the results also revealed that overexpression of Cxcl1 can reverse the miR-429-mediated effects.

Conclusion

We concluded that miR-429 exerts protective effects against OGD/R-induce injury in vitro through modulation of Cxcl1 and nuclear factor kinase B pathway, hoping provide a new view on the pathogenesis of cerebral I/R injury and a feasible potential therapeutic target.

Project description:Cerebral ischemic stroke is a major cause of adult morbidity and mortality worldwide. Several long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been reported to participate in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI). However, to the best of our knowledge, the role of lncRNA AK139328 in cerebral ischemic stroke remains poorly understood. The present study aimed to determine the expression and function of lncRNA AK139328 in the progression of IRI. PC12 cells were injured by oxygen glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) to establish an in vitro ischemic stroke model. An MTT assay was performed to determine cell viability. Reverse transcription-quantitative PCR was used to analyze the expression levels of AK139328 and Netrin-1 in blood samples from patients who had suffered a cerebral ischemic stroke and healthy individuals or OGD/R PC12 cells. ELISAs were used to determine the levels of inflammatory cytokines. In addition, oxidative stress levels and the levels of cell apoptosis were evaluated by reactive oxygen species (ROS) kits, flow cytometry and western blotting. Immunofluorescence staining was used for the detection of cell neurite outgrowth. The results of the present study revealed that AK139328 expression levels were upregulated in patients who had suffered a cerebral ischemic stroke and in PC12 cells following stimulation with OGD/R. The knockdown of AK139328 alleviated OGD/R-induced decreases in cell viability, downregulation in Netrin-1 expression and increases in inflammatory cytokines levels, including TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6. Moreover, AK139328 silencing suppressed oxidative stress and cell apoptosis in OGD/R-treated PC12 cells. Furthermore, the expression levels of microtubule associated protein 2 and growth associated protein 43 in OGD/R-injured PC12 cells were upregulated following the knockdown of AK139328 expression. In conclusion, these findings suggested that the knockdown of AK139328 expression may protect PC12 cells against OGD/R injury by regulating inflammatory responses, oxidative stress and cell apoptosis. The data suggested a potential therapeutic target for the diagnosis and treatment of cerebral ischemic stroke.

Project description:BackgroundDeep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) is a technique used during the surgical treatment of aneurysms of the thoracic aorta in adult patients, and complex congenital heart disease in neonates. And brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs) are essential components of the cerebrovascular network and participate in maintaining the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and brain function. In our previous study, we found that oxygen-glucose deprivation and reoxygenation (OGD/R) activated Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) signaling in BMECs, and induced pyroptosis and inflammation. In this study, we further investigated the potential mechanism of ethyl(6R)-6-[N-(2-Chloro-4-fluorophenyl) sulfamoyl] cyclohex-1-ene-1-carboxylate (TAK-242) on BMECs under OGD/R, as in patients with sepsis, the TAK-242 was tested in clinical trials.MethodsTo confirm the function of TAK-242 on BMECs under OGD/R, cell viability, inflammatory factors, inflammation-associated pyroptosis, and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling were determined using Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and western blotting, respectively. To investigate the lncRNAs associated with TLR4 during OGD/R, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and messenger RNAs (mRNAs) expression patterns were profiled with RNA deep sequencing. Moreover, to confirm whether lncRNA-encoded short peptides, liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was used.ResultsRelative control group, OGD/R inhibited the cell viability, increased the section of inflammatory factors secretion, including IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α, and promoted the pathways of TLR4/NLRP3/Caspase-1 and TLR4/NF-κB. However, TAK-242 + OGD/R group promoted OGD/R cell viability, decreased OGD/R-induced inflammatory factors secretion, and inhibited the pathways of TLR4/NLRP3/Caspase-1 and TLR4/NF-κB. In addition, AABR07000411.1, AABR070006957.1, and AABR070008256.1 were decreased in OGD/R cells compared with controls, but TAK-242 restored their expression under OGD/R condition. AABR07000473.1, AC130862.4, and LOC10254972.6 were induced by OGD/R, but were suppressed in TAK-242 + OGD/R cells compared with OGD/R. Moreover, AABR07049961.1, AC127076.2, AABR07066020.1, and AABR07025303.1-encoded short peptides were dysregulated in OGD/R cells, and TAK-242 attenuated the dysregulation of AABR07049961.1, AC127076.2, and AABR07066020.1-encoded short peptides.ConclusionsTAK-242 alters the expression pattern of lncRNAs in OGD/R cells, and differently expressed lncRNAs may exert a protective effect against OGD/R injury through a mechanism of competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) and encoding short peptides. These findings maybe provide a new theory basis for the treatment of DHCA.

Project description:Shuxuetong injection composed of leech (Hirudo nipponica Whitman) and earthworm (Pheretima aspergillum) has been used for the clinical treatment of acute stroke for many years in China. However, the precise neuroprotective mechanism of Shuxuetong injection remains poorly understood. Here, cerebral microvascular endothelial cells (bEnd.3) were incubated in glucose-free Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium containing 95% N2/5% CO2 for 6 hours, followed by high-glucose medium containing 95% O2 and 5% CO2 for 18 hours to establish an oxygen-glucose deprivation/reperfusion model. This in vitro cell model was administered Shuxuetong injection at 1/32, 1/64, and 1/128 concentrations (diluted 32-, 64-, and 128-times). Cell Counting Kit-8 assay was used to evaluate cell viability. A fluorescence method was used to measure lactate dehydrogenase, and a fluorescence microplate reader used to detect intracellular reactive oxygen species. A fluorescent probe was also used to measure mitochondrial superoxide production. A cell resistance meter was used to measure transepithelial resistance and examine integrity of monolayer cells. The fluorescein isothiocyanate-dextran test was performed to examine blood-brain barrier permeability. Real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction was performed to analyze mRNA expression levels of tumor necrosis factor alpha, interleukin-1β, interleukin-6, and inducible nitric oxide synthase. Western blot assay was performed to analyze expression of caspase-3, intercellular adhesion molecule 1, vascular cell adhesion molecule 1, occludin, vascular endothelial growth factor, cleaved caspase-3, B-cell lymphoma 2, phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase, extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase, nuclear factor-κB p65, I kappa B alpha, phosphorylated I kappa B alpha, I kappa B kinase, phosphorylated I kappa B kinase, claudin-5, and zonula occludens-1. Our results show that Shuxuetong injection increases bEnd.3 cell viability and B-cell lymphoma 2 expression, reduces cleaved caspase-3 expression, inhibits production of reactive oxygen species and mitochondrial superoxide, suppresses expression of tumor necrosis factor alpha, interleukin-1β, interleukin-6, inducible nitric oxide synthase mRNA, intercellular adhesion molecule-1, and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, markedly increases transepithelial resistance, decreases blood-brain barrier permeability, upregulates claudin-5, occludin, and zonula occludens-1 expression, reduces nuclear factor-κB p65 and vascular endothelial growth factor expression, and reduces I kappa B alpha, extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase 1/2, and I kappa B kinase phosphorylation levels. Overall, these findings suggest that Shuxuetong injection has protective effects on brain microvascular endothelial cells after oxygen-glucose deprivation/reperfusion. Moreover, its protective effect is associated with reduction of mitochondrial superoxide production, inhibition of the inflammatory response, and inhibition of vascular endothelial growth factor, extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase 1/2, and the nuclear factor-κB p65 signaling pathway.
