Hsa-miR-494-3p attenuates gene HtrA3 transcription to increase inflammatory response in hypoxia/reoxygenation HK2 Cells.

ABSTRACT: The occurrence of cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) increases hospital stay and mortality. MicroRNAs has a crucial role in AKI. This objective of the current study is to explore the function of hsa-miR-494-3p in inflammatory response in human kidney tubular epithelial (HK2) cells with hypoxia/reoxygenation. According to KDIGO standard, patients after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass were divided into two groups: AKI (n?=?10) and non-AKI patients (n?=?8). HK2 were raised in the normal and hypoxia/reoxygenation circumstances and mainly treated by overexpression ofmiR-494-3p and HtrA3. The relationship between miR-494-3p and HtrA3 was determined by dual-luciferase reporter assay. Our result showed that Hsa-miR-494-3p was elevated in the serum of patients with CSA-AKI, and also induced in hypoxic reoxygenated HK2 cells. Hsa-miR-494-3p also increased a hypoxia-reoxygenation induced inflammatory response in HK2 cells. Moreover, as a target gene of miR-494-3p, overexpression of HtrA3 downregulated the hypoxia-reoxygenation induced inflammatory response in HK2 cells. Overexpression of hsa-miR-494-3p-induced inflammatory response was inhibited by overexpression of HtrA3. Collectively, we identified that hsa-miR-494-3p, a miRNA induced in both circulation of AKI patients and hypoxia-reoxygenation-treated HK2 cells, enhanced renal inflammation by targeting HtrA3, which may suggest a possible role as a new therapeutic target for CSA-AKI.

Project description:BackgroundThis study sought to explore the role and molecular mechanism of circ_0049271 in hypoxia-reoxygenation (H/R)-induced cardiomyocyte injury.MethodsSignificantly upregulated circular ribonucleic acids (circRNAs) in Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) data sets were identified using a Venn diagram. A H9c2 (rat cardiomyocytes) cell model of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) was induced by 1% H/R. Quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the expression levels of circ_0049271, miR-17-3p, and FZD4 in clinical blood samples and cells, and Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) was used to determine the proliferation rate of the cells in each group. Next, flow cytometry and Western blot were used to evaluate cell apoptosis. Biochemical tests and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) were then used to determine the activities/levels of the cell damage markers [i.e., creatine kinase (CK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)], oxidative stress substances [i.e., malondialdehyde (MDA), reactive oxygen species (ROS), and superoxide dismutase (SOD)], and inflammatory factors [i.e., interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and IL-8]. In addition, intermolecular interactions were verified using dual-luciferase reporter and RNA pull-down experiments.ResultsCirc_0049271 was significantly upregulated in both the blood of the AMI patients and the H/R-induced H9c2 cells. The knockdown of circ_0049271 increased the cell proliferation rate, decreased the apoptosis rate, inhibited oxidative stress (ROS and MDA were upregulated, and SOD was downregulated) and inflammatory responses (IL-1, IL-6, and IL-8 were downregulated), and relieved cell damage. However, the overexpression of circ_0049271 promoted H/R-induced H9c2 cell damage. Further experiments showed that miR-17-3p was a target of circ_0049271, and miR-17-3p was negatively correlated with circ_0049271 in the AMI blood samples. Additionally, miR-17-3p was found to target FZD4. A further exploration also revealed that miR-17-3p knockdown or FZD4 overexpression reversed the effects of si-circ_0049271 on the H/R-induced H9c2 cells; that is, miR-17-3p knockdown or FZD4 overexpression promoted H/R-induced injury in the H9c2 cells.ConclusionsCirc_0049271 promoted cellular function damage (e.g., proliferation inhibition, apoptosis, oxidative stress, and inflammation) in H/R-induced H9c2 cardiomyocytes via the miR-17-3p/FZD4 signaling axis.

Project description:The aim of the present study was to identify the differentially expressed microRNAs (DEMs) between Lynch syndrome (LS) and the normal colonic (N-C) control samples, predict the target genes (TGs) and analyze the potential functions of the DEMs and TGs. The miRNA expression dataset GSE30454, which included data of 13 LS and 20 N-C tissue samples, was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus. The classical t-test in Linear Models for Microarray Data package was used for DEM identification. TG prediction was performed using 5 databases. The regulatory network of the DEMs and their TGs was constructed using Cytoscape. Functional and pathway enrichment analysis was performed. The transcription factors (TFs), tumor-associated genes (TAG) and tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) were then identified. Three key DEMs hsa-miR-137, hsa-miR-520e, and hsa-miR-590-3p were identified. Hsa-miR-520e and hsa-miR-137 had 4 common TGs, including SNF related kinase, metal-regulatory transcription factor 1 (MTF1), round spermatid basic protein 1 and YTH N6-methyladenosine RNA binding protein 3; hsa-miR-590-3p and hsa-miR-137 had 14 common TGs, including NCK adaptor protein 1 (NCK1), EPH receptor A7, and stress-associated endoplasmic reticulum protein 1; hsa-miR-590-3p and hsa-miR-520e had 12 common TGs, including Krüppel-like factor (KLF) 13, twinfilin actin binding protein 1, and nuclear factor I B. Through the functional and pathway enrichments analysis, MTF1 was involved in regulation of gene expression and metabolic processes, and sequence-specific DNA binding TF activity. KLF13 was involved in regulation of gene expression and regulation of cellular metabolic processes. NCK1 was enriched in the axon guidance pathway. In addition, the functional and pathway enrichment analysis showed certain TGs, such as hypoxia-inducible factor 1α, AKT serine/threonine kinase 2, and rapamycin-insensitive companion of mammalian target of rapamycin, participated in the mTOR signaling pathway. The 3 key DEMs hsa-miR-137, hsa-miR-520e, and hsa-miR-590-3p may have important roles in the process of LS.
