Extracellular miR-574-5p Induces Osteoclast Differentiation via TLR 7/8 in Rheumatoid Arthritis.

ABSTRACT: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by synovial inflammation and joint destruction. Cell-derived small extracellular vesicles (sEV) mediate cell-to-cell communication in the synovial microenvironment by carrying microRNAs (miRs), a class of small non-coding RNAs. Herein, we report that sEV from synovial fluid promote osteoclast differentiation which is attributed to high levels of extracellular miR-574-5p. Moreover, we demonstrate for the first time that enhanced osteoclast maturation is mediated by Toll-like receptor (TLR) 7/8 signaling which is activated by miR-574-5p binding. This is a novel mechanism by which sEV and miRs contribute to RA pathogenesis and indicate that pharmacological inhibition of extracellular miR-574-5p might offer new therapeutic strategies to protect osteoclast-mediated bone destruction in RA.

Project description:BackgroundCircular RNAs (circRNAs) are important regulators on the onset and progression of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Our purpose is to explore the role and underpin mechanism of circ_0000396 in RA progression.MethodsRA patients (n = 39) and healthy volunteers (n = 33) were recruited from the Affiliated Hospital of Shaanxi University of Chinese Medicine for the present work. Circ_0000396, microRNA-574-5p (miR-574-5p) and R-spondin 1 (RSPO1) RNA levels were analyzed by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Cell proliferation was analyzed by 3-(4,5-dimethyl-thiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, colony formation assay, and 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EDU) assay. Cell apoptosis was assessed by flow cytometry. Protein expression levels of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), Cyclin D1, Cyclin E1, BCL2-associated × protein (Bax), B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl2), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and RSPO1 were detected by western blot assay. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was conducted to analyze the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines including IL-1β and TNF-α. The interaction between miR-574-5p and circ_0000396 or RSPO1 was confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter assay and RNA-pull down assay.ResultsCirc_0000396 expression was notably down-regulated in RA patients compared with healthy controls. Circ_0000396 overexpression suppressed the proliferation and inflammatory response and triggered the apoptosis of RA synovial fibroblasts (RASFs), accompanied by decreases in PCNA, Cyclin D1, Cyclin E1, Bcl2, IL-1β and TNF-α protein expression and an increase in Bax protein expression. Circ_0000396 acted as a molecular sponge for miR-574-5p, and circ_0000396 overexpression-mediated protective effects on RASFs dysfunction were largely reversed by the introduction of miR-574-5p mimics. miR-574-5p interacted with the 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) of RSPO1, and miR-574-5p negatively regulated RSPO1 expression in RASFs. Circ_0000396 could up-regulate the expression of RSPO1 by sponging miR-574-5p in RASFs. RSPO1 interference largely overturned circ_0000396 overexpression-mediated effects in RASFs.ConclusionCirc_0000396 restrained the proliferation and inflammation and induced the apoptosis of RASFs by mediating miR-574-5p/RSPO1 axis, which provided novel potential targets for RA treatment.
