Protective effect of miR-138-5p inhibition modified human mesenchymal stem cell on ovalbumin-induced allergic rhinitis and asthma syndrome.

ABSTRACT: The objective of the study is to evaluate the protective effects of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) modified with miR-138-5p inhibitor against the allergic rhinitis and asthma syndrome (ARAS). MiR-138-5p or negative control was transfected into hMSCs, and fluorescence-activated cell sorting was used to evaluate hMSC surface markers. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to evaluate miR-138-5p, SIRT1, caspase-3, IL-6, IL-1β and TNF-α levels after TNF-α and IL-6 stimulations. hMSCs with or without miR-138-5p inhibition was intranasally administered into ARAS mice (n = 10 each group), followed by monitoring sneezing and nasal rubbing events to evaluate the allergic symptoms. Histamine, ovalbumin-specific IgE, IgG2a, IgG1 and LTC4 release were monitored in the serum and nasal lavage fluid using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Expression of SIRT1 and HMGB1/TLR4 pathway in nasal mucosa was assessed. After miR-138-5p inhibitor transfection, the hMSC lineage was preserved. Binding between SIRT1 and miR-138-4p was observed, and miR-138-5p inhibition led to upregulation of SIRT1. Inhibition of miR-138-5p led to attenuated inflammatory responses of hMSCs upon TNF-α and IL-6 stimulation, and allergic symptoms in mice, as well as histamine and ovalbumin-specific IgG release. hMSCs with miR-138-5p inhibition showed characteristics of activated SIRT1 and inhibited HMGB1/TLR4 pathway. Inhibition of miR-138-5p in hMSCs enhanced its effects in attenuating inflammatory responses and allergic reaction in the ARAS model, which is presumably regulated by SIRT1 and the HMGB1/TLR4 pathway.

Project description:ObjectiveAllergic asthma is a growing burden on national public health services due to its high prevalence. The aim of this experiment was to investigate whether miR-26a-5p affects cellular fibrosis and thus airway remodeling in asthmatic mice through the regulation of target genes.MethodsScreening for differentially expressed miRNAs in asthma model mice was carried out by constructing a mouse model of allergic asthma. qRT-PCR was performed to determine candidate miRNAs in each group of bronchial tissues. Western blot detection of the expression levels of predicted candidate target genes in each group of bronchial tissues was conducted. A dual luciferase assay was performed to validate the binding of miR-26a-5p to target genes. Fibronectin, a marker of cellular fibrosis, was detected via flow cytometry. CCK8 and BrdU staining were used to detect the proliferation ability of each group of cells.ResultsmiR-26a-5p is able to target and bind to ABL2 3'-UTR, MMP16 3'-UTR and PDE7A 3'-UTR sequences. After interference with miR-26a-5p, improved bronchial histopathology and reduced peribronchial collagen deposition were found. Compared with the model group, interference with miR-26a-5p reduced lung fibrosis, decreased fibroblasts and increased apoptosis in mouse bronchial tissues; overexpression of miR-26a-5p decreased apoptosis in mouse bronchial tissues. Compared with the model group, the serum levels of IL-4, IL-5, IL-13 and I IFN-γ were decreased in the miR-26a-5p inhibitor group and increased in the miR-26a-5p mimic group. The immunohistochemical results showed that the expression of ABL2, MMP16 and PDE7A was significantly reduced after intervention with miR-26a-5p. Compared with the model group, the apoptosis rate of cells in the miR-26a-5p inhibitor group of the allergic asthma model was upregulated, the levels of IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, IFN-γ and ROS were decreased, the expression of the miRNA and proteins of ABL2, MMP16 and PDE7A was decreased, the expression of LC3A and P62 was significantly increased and the expression of LC3B, Beclin1, Atg5 and fibrosis markers collagen I and α-SMA was decreased.ConclusionmiR-26a-5p affects cellular fibrosis and thus airway remodeling in asthmatic mice by regulating target genes.
