MiR-1165-3p Suppresses Th2 Differentiation via Targeting IL-13 and PPM1A in a Mouse Model of Allergic Airway Inflammation.

ABSTRACT: PURPOSE:CD4?T cells are essential in the pathogenesis of allergic asthma. We have previously demonstrated that microRNA-1165-3p (miR-1165-3p) was significantly reduced in T-helper type (Th) 2 cells and that miR-1165-3p was a surrogate marker for atopic asthma. Little is known about the mechanisms of miR-1165-3p in the regulation of Th2-dominated allergic inflammation. We aimed to investigate the associations between Th2 differentiation and miR-1165b-3p in asthma as well as the possible mechanisms. METHODS:CD4? naïve T cells were differentiated into Th1 or Th2 cells in vitro. MiR-1165-3p was up-regulated or down-regulated using lentiviral systems during Th1/Th2 differentiation. In vivo, the lentiviral particles with the miR-1165-3p enhancer were administered by tail vein injection on the first day of a house dust mite -induced allergic airway inflammation model. Allergic inflammation and Th1/Th2 differentiation were routinely monitored. To investigate the potential targets of miR-1165-3p, biotin-microRNA pull-down products were sequenced, and the candidates were further verified with a dual-luciferase reporter assay. The roles of a target protein phosphatase, Mg2+/Mn2+-dependent 1A (PPM1A), in Th2 cell differentiation and allergic asthma were further explored. Plasma PPM1A was determined by ELISA in 18 subjects with asthma and 20 controls. RESULTS:The lentivirus encoding miR-1165-3p suppressed Th2-cell differentiation in vitro. In contrast, miR-1165-3p silencing promoted Th2-cell development. In the HDM-induced model of allergic airway inflammation, miR-1165-3p up-regulation was accompanied by reduced airway hyper-responsiveness, serum immunoglobulin E, airway inflammation and Th2-cell polarization. IL-13 and PPM1A were the direct targets of miR-1165-3p. The expression of IL-13 or PPM1A was inversely correlated with that of miR-1165-3p. PPM1A regulated the signal transducer and activator of transcription and AKT signaling pathways during Th2 differentiation. Moreover, plasma PPM1A was significantly increased in asthmatic patients. CONCLUSIONS:MiR-1165-3p negatively may regulate Th2-cell differentiation by targeting IL-13 and PPM1A in allergic airway inflammation.

Project description:BackgroundAsthma is an allergic airway inflammation-driven disease that affects more than 300 million people world-wide. Targeted therapies for asthma are largely lacking. Although asthma symptoms can be prevented from worsening, asthma development cannot be prevented. Cdc42 GTPase has been shown to regulate actin cytoskeleton, cell proliferation and survival.ObjectivesTo investigate the role and targeting of Cdc42 in Th2 cell differentiation and Th2-mediated allergic airway inflammation.MethodsPost-thymic Cdc42-deficient mice were generated by crossing Cdc42flox/flox mice with dLckicre transgenic mice in which Cre expression is driven by distal Lck promoter. Effects of post-thymic Cdc42 deletion and pharmacological targeting Cdc42 on Th2 cell differentiation were evaluated in vitro under Th2-polarized culture conditions. Effects of post-thymic Cdc42 deletion and pharmacological targeting Cdc42 on allergic airway inflammation were evaluated in ovalbumin- and/or house dust mite-induced mouse models of asthma.ResultsPost-thymic deletion of Cdc42 led to reduced peripheral CD8+ T cells and attenuated Th2 cell differentiation, with no effect on closely related Th1, Th17 and induced regulatory T (iTreg) cells. Post-thymic Cdc42 deficiency ameliorated allergic airway inflammation. The selective inhibition of Th2 cell differentiation by post-thymic deletion of Cdc42 was recapitulated by pharmacological targeting of Cdc42 with CASIN, a Cdc42 activity-specific chemical inhibitor. CASIN also alleviated allergic airway inflammation. CASIN-treated Cdc42-deficient mice showed comparable allergic airway inflammation to vehicle-treated Cdc42-deficient mice, indicative of negligible off-target effect of CASIN. CASIN had no effect on established allergic airway inflammation.Conclusion and clinical relevanceCdc42 is required for Th2 cell differentiation and allergic airway inflammation, and rational targeting Cdc42 may serve as a preventive but not therapeutic approach for asthma control.
