Long non-coding RNA ZFAS1 alleviates sepsis-induced myocardial injury via target miR-34b-5p/SIRT1.

ABSTRACT: Long non-coding RNA ZFAS1 is down-regulated in sepsis. However, whether ZFAS1 participates in sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy (SIC) remains largely unknown. LPS injection to rats was used to establish an in vivo sepsis model, while LPS stimulation with H9C2 cell was used to mimic an in vitro sepsis-induced myocardial injury model. Western blots and quantitative RT-PCR were performed to evaluate protein and mRNA levels, respectively. ELISA was conducted to determine cytokine levels in supernatant. Flow cytometry was used to test apoptosis. Dual-luciferase assay was performed to validate binding between ZFAS1 and miR-34b-5p, miR-34b-5p and SIRT1. Our data revealed that ZFAS1 and SIRT1 were down-regulated, while miR-34b-5p was up-regulated in LPS-induced H9C2 cells. Inhibition of miR-34b-5p or overexpression of ZFAS1 alleviated inflammatory response and cell apoptosis in LPS-stimulated H9C2 cells. A mechanism study revealed that ZFAS1 sponged miR-34b-5p and thus elevated expression of SIRT1, which was prohibited by miR-34b-5p. ZFAS1 alleviated inflammatory response and cell apoptosis in LPS-stimulated H9C2 cells via the miR-34b-5p/SIRT1 axis, providing novel potential therapeutic targets for SIC.

Inhibition of the long non-coding RNA ZFAS1 attenuates ferroptosis by sponging miR-150-5p and activates CCND2 against diabetic cardiomyopathy.

Project description:Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DbCM) is responsible for increased morbidity and mortality in patients with diabetes and heart failure. However, the pathogenesis of DbCM has not yet been identified. Here, we investigated the important role of lncRNA-ZFAS1 in the pathological process of DbCM, which is associated with ferroptosis. Microarray data analysis of DbCM in patients or mouse models from GEO revealed the significance of ZFAS1 and the significant downregulation of miR-150-5p and CCND2. Briefly, DbCM was established in high glucose (HG)-treated cardiomyocytes and db/db mice to form in vitro and in vivo models. Ad-ZFAS1, Ad-sh-ZFAS1, mimic miR-150-5p, Ad-CCND2 and Ad-sh-CCND2 were intracoronarily administered to the mouse model or transfected into HG-treated cardiomyocytes to determine whether ZFAS1 regulates miR-150-5p and CCND2 in ferroptosis. The effect of ZFAS1 on the left ventricular myocardial tissues of db/db mice and HG-treated cardiomyocytes, ferroptosis and apoptosis was determined by Masson staining, immunohistochemical staining, Western blotting, monobromobimane staining, immunofluorescence staining and JC-1 staining. The relationships among ZFAS1, miR-150-5p and CCND2 were evaluated using dual-luciferase reporter assays and RNA pull-down assays. Inhibition of ZFAS1 led to reduced collagen deposition, decreased cardiomyocyte apoptosis and ferroptosis, and attenuated DbCM progression. ZFAS1 sponges miR-150-5p to downregulate CCND2 expression. Ad-sh-ZFAS1, miR-150-5p mimic, and Ad-CCND2 transfection attenuated ferroptosis and DbCM development both in vitro and in vivo. However, transfection with Ad-ZFAS1 could reverse the positive effects of miR-150-5p mimic and Ad-CCND2 in vitro and in vivo. lncRNA-ZFAS1 acted as a ceRNA to sponge miR-150-5p and downregulate CCND2 to promote cardiomyocyte ferroptosis and DbCM development. Thus, ZFAS1 inhibition could be a promising therapeutic target for the treatment and prevention of DbCM.

LincRNA 1700020I14Rik alleviates cell proliferation and fibrosis in diabetic nephropathy via miR-34a-5p/Sirt1/HIF-1α signaling.

Project description:Long intergenic noncoding RNAs (lincRNAs) have been gradually identified to be functional in a variety of different mechanisms associating with development and epigenetic regulation of cellular homeostasis. However, the study of lincRNAs in diabetic nephropathy (DN) is still in its infancy. Here, we have found dysexpressed long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in renal tissues of db/db DN mice compared with db/m mice by RNA sequencing. In this study, 5 lincRNAs were confirmed to express in a consistent trend among these DN-related lncRNAs both in vivo and in vitro. Particularly, 1700020I14Rik was the downregulated one. Moreover, our data showed overexpression or knockdown of 1700020I14Rik could regulate cell proliferation and fibrosis in mouse mesangial cells (MCs). Furthermore, 1700020I14Rik was found to interact with miR-34a-5p via both the directly targeting way by bioinformatic investigation and luciferase assay and the Ago2-dependent manner by RIP assay. Results also displayed that overexpression of 1700020I14Rik inhibited cell proliferation and expressions of renal fibrosis markers through miR-34a-5p/Sirt1/HIF-1α pathway in MCs under high glucose condition, while knockdown of 1700020I14Rik could increase cell proliferation and expressions of renal fibrosis markers. In conclusion, these results provide new insights into the regulation between 1700020I14Rik and miR-34a-5p/Sirt1/HIF-1α signaling pathway during the progression of DN.

MiR-34b-5p Mediates the Proliferation and Differentiation of Myoblasts by Targeting IGFBP2.

Project description:As key post-transcriptional regulators, microRNAs (miRNAs) play an indispensable role in skeletal muscle development. Our previous study suggested that miR-34b-5p and IGFBP2 could have a potential role in skeletal muscle growth. Our goal in this study is to explore the function and regulatory mechanism of miR-34b-5p and IGFBP2 in myogenesis. In this study, the dual-luciferase reporter assay and Western blot analysis showed that IGFBP2 is a direct target of miR-34b-5p. Flow cytometric analysis and EdU assay showed that miR-34b-5p could repress the cell cycle progression of myoblasts, and miR-34b-5p could promote the formation of myotubes by promoting the expression of MyHC. On the contrary, the overexpression of IGFBP2 significantly facilitated the proliferation of myoblasts and hampered the formation of myotubes. Together, our results indicate that miR-34b-5p could mediate the proliferation and differentiation of myoblasts by targeting IGFBP2.

Antisense Oligonucleotide-Based Therapy on miR-181a-5p Alleviates Cartilage Degradation of Temporomandibular Joint Osteoarthritis <i>via</i> Promoting SIRT1.

Project description:Temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA) condylar cartilage degeneration and abnormal subchondral bone pathological remodeling induce pain and joint dysfunction, and cartilage degeneration is considered irreversible. Very few therapeutic approaches are administrated in practice. Nucleotides have demonstrated considerable potential as a next-generation medication, and they have been applied in several models of osteoarthritis. There is a need to establish an effective protocol for TMJOA gene therapy. In the current study unilateral anterior crossbite (UAC) surgery was used to simulate mechanical stress-induced TMJOA in mice. Degeneration of condylar cartilage and destruction of subchondral bone were observed in damaged joints, and miR-181a-5p was elevated in chondrocytes. Intra-articular injection of miR-181a-5p antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) could reduce the cartilage damage and alleviate UAC-induced TMJOA progression, but it did not restore injured subchondral bone. Mechanically, miR-181a-5p evidently targeted the 3' untranslated region of Sirt1 directly, resulting in inhibition of silent information regulator 1 expression and promoting apoptosis by elevating p53-dependent signaling, indicating that miR181a-5p ASO promoted chondrocyte survival. The present study suggests that ASO-based gene therapy may be an effective TMJOA treatment.

MiR-96-5p alleviates inflammatory responses by targeting NAMPT and regulating the NF-κB pathway in neonatal sepsis.

Project description:Neonatal septicemia is a serious infectious disease in the neonatal period. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been reported to participate in the inflammatory responses in neonatal sepsis. The aim of the present study was to explore the effects and molecular mechanism of miR-96-5p on regulating the inflammatory responses in neonatal sepsis. MiR-96-5p was low expressed while nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) was high expressed in the serum of neonatal septicemia patients. The expression of miR-96-5p was decreased in LPS-induced inflammatory responses. Besides, miR-95-5p relieved LPS-induced inflammatory responses in RAW264.7 cells. NAMPT was demonstrated as a potential target of miR-96-5p, and knockdown of NAMPT reduced inflammatory in RAW264.7 cells stimulated with LPS. Moreover, overexpression of NAMPT reversed the effects of miR-96-5p on LPS-induced inflammatory responses. In addition, miR-96-5p inhibited nuclear factor (NF)-κB signaling pathway in RAW264.7 cells stimulated with LPS. MiR-96-5p alleviated inflammatory responses via targeting NAMPT and inhibiting NF-κB pathway in neonatal sepsis.

lncRNA ZFAS1 Positively Facilitates Endothelial Ferroptosis via miR-7-5p/ACSL4 Axis in Diabetic Retinopathy.

Project description:Accumulating evidence has suggested the significant role of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNA) in regulating ferroptosis, while its regulatory mechanism in diabetic retinopathy (DR) remains unelucidated. In this work, we first demonstrated that lncRNA zinc finger antisense 1 (ZFAS1) is upregulated in high glucose-cultured human retinal endothelial cells (hRECs) and ZFAS1 inhibition attenuated high glucose- (HG-) induced ferroptosis, which was evidenced by cell viability, total iron and ferrous iron levels, reactive oxygen species (ROS) level, and Glutathione Peroxidase 4 (GPX4) expression detection. Mechanistically, we validated that ZFAS1 may act as a competing endogenous RNA by competitively binding with microRNA-7-5p (miR-7-5p) and modulating the expression of its downstream molecule acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4 (ACSL4), which is now identified as a classic driver gene of ferroptosis process. In conclusion, our results demonstrate that HG-induced ZFAS1 elevation activates ferroptosis in hRECs and the ZFAS1/miR-7-5p/ACSL4 axis may serve as a therapeutic target for endothelial dysfunction in DR.

Reciprocal Changes of Circulating Long Non-Coding RNAs ZFAS1 and CDR1AS Predict Acute Myocardial Infarction.

Project description:This study sought to evaluate the potential of circulating long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) as biomarkers for acute myocardial infarction (AMI). We measured the circulating levels of 15 individual lncRNAs, known to be relevant to cardiovascular disease, using the whole blood samples collected from 103 AMI patients, 149 non-AMI subjects, and 95 healthy volunteers. We found that only two of them, Zinc finger antisense 1 (ZFAS1) and Cdr1 antisense (CDR1AS), showed significant differential expression between AMI patients and control subjects. Circulating level of ZFAS1 was significantly lower in AMI (0.74 ± 0.07) than in non-AMI subjects (1.0 ± 0.05, P < 0.0001), whereas CDR1AS showed the opposite changes with its blood level markedly higher in AMI (2.18 ± 0.24) than in non-AMI subjects (1.0 ± 0.05, P < 0.0001). When comparison was made between AMI and non-AMI, the area under ROC curve was 0.664 for ZFAS1 alone or 0.671 for CDR1AS alone, and 0.691 for ZFAS1 and CDR1AS combination. Univariate and multivariate analyses identified these two lncRNAs as independent predictors for AMI. Similar changes of circulating ZFAS1 and CDR1AS were consistently observed in an AMI mouse model. Reciprocal changes of circulating ZFAS1 and CDR1AS independently predict AMI and may be considered novel biomarkers of AMI.

Interferon-β alleviates sepsis by SIRT1-mediated blockage of endothelial glycocalyx shedding.

Project description:Sepsis is a life-threatening multi-organ dysfunction with high mortality caused by the body's improper response to microbial infection. No new effective therapy has emerged that can adequately treat patients with sepsis. We previously demonstrated that interferon-β (IFN-β) protects against sepsis via sirtuin 1-(SIRT1)-mediated immunosuppression. Another study also reported its significant protective effect against acute respiratory distress syndrome, a complication of severe sepsis, in human patients. However, the IFN-β effect cannot solely be explained by SIRT1-mediated immunosuppression, since sepsis induces immunosuppression in patients. Here, we show that IFN-β, in combination with nicotinamide riboside (NR), alleviates sepsis by blocking endothelial damage via SIRT1 activation. IFN-β plus NR protected against cecal ligation puncture-(CLP)-induced sepsis in wild-type mice, but not in endothelial cell-specific Sirt1 knockout (EC-Sirt1 KO) mice. IFN-β upregulated SIRT1 protein expression in endothelial cells in a protein synthesisindependent manner. IFN-β plus NR reduced the CLP-induced increase in in vivo endothelial permeability in wild-type, but not EC-Sirt1 KO mice. IFN-β plus NR suppressed lipopolysaccharide-induced up-regulation of heparinase 1, but the effect was abolished by Sirt1 knockdown in endothelial cells. Our results suggest that IFN-β plus NR protects against endothelial damage during sepsis via activation of the SIRT1/heparinase 1 pathway. [BMB Reports 2023; 56(5): 314-319].
