Long Non-coding RNA H19 Regulates Porcine Satellite Cell Differentiation Through miR-140-5p/SOX4 and DBN1.

ABSTRACT: The H19 gene promotes skeletal muscle differentiation in mice, but the regulatory models and mechanisms of myogenesis regulated by H19 are largely unknown in pigs. Therefore, the regulatory modes of H19 in the differentiation of porcine skeletal muscle satellite cells (PSCs) need to be determined. We observed that H19 gene silencing could decrease the expressions of the myogenin (MYOG) gene, myogenic differentiation (MYOD), and myosin heavy chain (MYHC) in PSCs. Therefore, we constructed and sequenced 12 cDNA libraries of PSCs after knockdown of H19 at two differentiation time points to analyze the transcriptome differences. A total of 11,419 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified. Among these DEGs, we found through bioinformatics analysis and protein interaction experiment that SRY-box transcription factor 4 (SOX4) and Drebrin 1 (DBN1) were the key genes in H19-regulated PSC differentiation. Functional analysis shows that SOX4 and DBN1 promote PSC differentiation. Mechanistically, H19 regulates PSC differentiation through two different pathways. On the one hand, H19 functions as a molecular sponge of miR-140-5p, which inhibits the differentiation of PSCs, thereby modulating the derepression of SOX4. On the other hand, H19 regulates PSC differentiation through directly binding with DBN1. Furthermore, MYOD binds to the promoters of H19 and DBN1. The knockdown of MYOD inhibits the expression of H19 and DBN1. We determined the function of H19 and provided a molecular model to elucidate H19's role in regulating PSC differentiation.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Increasing evidence has revealed that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) exert critical roles in biological mineralization. As a critical process for dentin formation, odontoblastic differentiation is regulated by complex signaling networks. The present study aimed to investigate the biological role and regulatory mechanisms of lncRNA-H19 (H19) in regulating the odontoblastic differentiation of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs). METHODS:We performed lncRNA microarray assay to reveal the expression patterns of lncRNAs involved in odontoblastic differentiation. H19 was identified and verified as a critical factor by qRT-PCR. The gain- and loss-of-function studies were performed to investigate the biological role of H19 in regulating odontoblastic differentiation of hDPSCs in vitro and in vivo. Odontoblastic differentiation was evaluated through qRT-PCR, Western blot, and Alizarin Red S staining. Bioinformatics analysis identified that H19 could directly interact with miR-140-5p, which was further verified by luciferase reporter assay. After overexpression of miR-140-5p in hDPSCs, odontoblastic differentiation was determined. Moreover, the potential target genes of miR-140-5p were investigated and the biological functions of BMP-2 and FGF9 in hDPSCs were verified. Co-transfection experiments were conducted to validate miR-140-5p was involved in H19-mediated odontoblastic differentiation in hDPSCs. RESULTS:The expression of H19 was significantly upregulated in hDPSCs undergoing odontoblastic differentiation. Overexpression of H19 stimulated odontoblastic differentiation in vitro and in vivo, whereas downregulation of H19 revealed the opposite effect. H19 binds directly to miR-140-5p and overexpression of miR-140-5p inhibited odontoblastic differentiation of hDPSCs. H19 acted as a miR-140-5p sponge, resulting in regulated the expression of BMP-2 and FGF9. Overexpression of H19 abrogated the inhibitory effect of miR-140-5p on odontoblastic differentiation. CONCLUSION:Our data revealed that H19 plays a positive regulatory role in odontoblastic differentiation of hDPSCs through miR-140-5p/BMP-2/FGF9 axis, suggesting that H19 may be a stimulatory regulator of odontogenesis.
