MicroRNA-181b-2 and MicroRNA-21-1 Negatively Regulate NF-κB and IRF3-Mediated Innate Immune Responses via Targeting TRIF in Teleost.

ABSTRACT: Upon recognition of bacterial or viral components by Toll-like receptors (TLRs), cells could be activated to induce a series of reactions to produce inflammatory cytokines, type I interferon (IFN), and IFN stimulating genes (ISG). MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are an important regulatory molecules that are widely involved in the regulatory networks of mammalian inflammation and immune responses; however, in lower vertebrates, the regulatory network of miRNA-mediated immune responses is poorly understood. Here, we report two miRNAs form Miichthys miiuy, namely, miR-181b-2 and miR-21-1, that play a negative role in host antiviral and antibacterial immunity. We found that miR-181b-2 and miR-21-1 are abundantly expressed in gram-negative bacteria, as well as RNA rhabdovirus infection. Inducible miR-181b-2 and miR-21-1 suppress the production of inflammatory cytokines and type I IFN by targeting TRIF, thereby avoiding excessive inflammation. We further revealed that miR-181b-2 and miR-21-1 modulate antibacterial and antiviral immunity through the TRIF-mediated NF-κB and IRF3 signaling pathways. The overall results indicate that miR-181b-2 and miR-21-1 act as negative feedback regulators and participate in host antibacterial and antiviral immune responses; this finding could provide information for a deeper understanding of the resistance of lower vertebrates to the invasion of pathogens and to avoidance of excessive immunity.

MicroRNA-2187 Modulates the NF-κB and IRF3 Pathway in Teleost Fish by Targeting TRAF6.

Project description:The innate immune organs and cells detect the invasion of pathogenic microorganisms, which trigger the innate immune response. A proper immune response can protect the organisms from pathogen invasion. However, excessive immunity can destroy immune homeostasis, leading to uncontrolled inflammation or pathogen transmission. Evidence shows that the miRNA-mediated immune regulatory network in mammals has had a significant impact, but the antibacterial and antiviral responses involved in miRNAs need to be further studied in lower vertebrates. Here, we report that miR-2187 as a negative regulator playing a critical role in the antiviral and antibacterial response of miiuy croaker. We find that pathogens such as Vibrio anguillarum and Siniperca chuatsi rhabdovirus (SCRV) can up-regulate the expression of miR-2187. Elevated miR-2187 is capable of reducing the production of inflammatory factors and antiviral genes by targeting TRAF6, thereby avoiding excessive inflammatory response. Furthermore, we proved that miR-2187 modulates innate immunity through TRAF6-mediated NF-κB and IRF3 signaling pathways. The above results indicate that miR-2187 acts as an immune inhibitor involved in host antibacterial and antiviral responses, thus enriching the immune regulatory network of the interaction between host and pathogen in lower vertebrates.

microRNA-210 and microRNA-3570 Negatively Regulate NF-κB-Mediated Inflammatory Responses by Targeting RIPK2 in Teleost Fish.

Project description:Pathogen infection can cause the production of inflammatory cytokines, which are key mediators that cause the host's innate immune response. Therefore, proper regulation of immune genes associated with inflammation is essential for immune response. Among them, microRNAs (miRNAs) as gene regulator have been widely reported to be involved in the innate immune response of mammals. However, the regulatory network in which miRNAs are involved in the development of inflammation is largely unknown in lower vertebrates. Here, we identified two miRNAs from miiuy croaker (Miichthys miiuy), miR-210 and miR-3570, which play a negative regulatory role in host antibacterial immunity. We found that the expressions of miR-210 and miR-3570 were significantly upregulated under the stimulation of Gram-negative bacterium vibrio harveyi and LPS (lipopolysaccharide). Induced miR-210 and miR-3570 inhibit inflammatory cytokine production by targeting RIPK2, thereby avoiding excessive inflammation. In particular, we found that miR-210 and miR-3570 negatively regulate antimicrobial immunity by regulating the RIPK2-mediated NF-κB signaling pathway. The collective results indicated that both miRNAs are used as negative feedback regulators to regulate RIPK2-mediated NF-κB signaling pathway and thus play a regulatory role in bacteria-induced inflammatory response.

IRF3 and IRF8 Regulate NF-κB Signaling by Targeting MyD88 in Teleost Fish.

Project description:MyD88 is a conserved intracellular adaptor, which plays an important role in the innate immune system. MyD88 transmits signals for downstream of toll-like and IL-1 receptors to activate NF-κB signaling pathway, which is tightly controlled in the immune response to maintain immune intensity and immune homeostasis at different stages. NF-κB signaling pathway has been extensively studied in mammals, but regulatory molecular mechanism is still unclear in teleost fish. We determined that IRF3 and IRF8 can regulate MyD88-mediated NF-κB signaling pathway in fish. Interestingly, MyD88 is precisely regulated by IRF3 and IRF8 through the same mechanism but in completely opposite ways. IRF3 promotes MyD88-mediated NF-κB signaling pathway, whereas IRF8 inhibits the signaling pathway. MyD88 is regulated via ubiquitin-proteasome degradation, whereas IRF3 or IRF8 inhibited or promoted MyD88 degradation in this pathway. Specifically, in the early stage of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation or Vibrio infection, up-regulation of IRF3 and down-regulation of IRF8 eventually increased MyD88 expression to activate the NF-κB signaling pathway to trigger immune response. In the late stage of stimulation, down-regulated IRF3 and up-regulated IRF8 synergistically regulate the expression of MyD88 to a normal level, thus maintaining the immune balance of homeostasis and preventing serious damage from persistent over-immunization. This study presents information on Myd88-NF-κB signaling pathway in teleost fish and provides new insights into its regulatory mechanism in fish immune system.

The Inducible microRNA-21 Negatively Modulates the Inflammatory Response in Teleost Fish via Targeting IRAK4.

Project description:Eradication of bacterial infection requires timely and appropriate immune and inflammatory responses, but excessive induction of inflammatory cytokines can cause acute or chronic inflammatory disorders. Thus, various layers of negative regulators and mechanisms are needed to ensure maintenance of the homeostasis for the immune system. miRNAs are a family of small non-coding RNAs that emerged as significant and versatile regulators involved in regulation of immune responses. Recently, the molecular mechanisms of miRNA in host-pathogen interaction networks have been extensively studied in mammals, whereas the underlying regulatory mechanisms in fish are still poorly understood. In this study, we identify miR-21 as a negative regulator of the teleost inflammatory response. We found that lipopolysaccharide and Vibrio anguillarum significantly upregulated the expression of fish miR-21. Upregulated miR-21 suppresses LPS-induced inflammatory cytokine expression by targeting IL-1 receptor-associated kinase 4 (IRAK4), thereby avoiding excessive inflammatory responses. Furthermore, we demonstrated that miR-21 regulates inflammatory responses through NF-κB signaling pathways. The collective findings indicate that miR-21 plays a regulatory role in host-pathogen interactions through IRAK4-mediated NF-κB signaling pathway.

MicroRNA-181b regulates NF-?B-mediated vascular inflammation.

Project description:EC activation and dysfunction have been linked to a variety of vascular inflammatory disease states. The function of microRNAs (miRNAs) in vascular EC activation and inflammation remains poorly understood. Herein, we report that microRNA-181b (miR-181b) serves as a potent regulator of downstream NF-?B signaling in the vascular endothelium by targeting importin-?3, a protein that is required for nuclear translocation of NF-?B. Overexpression of miR-181b inhibited importin-?3 expression and an enriched set of NF-?B-responsive genes such as adhesion molecules VCAM-1 and E-selectin in ECs in vitro and in vivo. In addition, treatment of mice with proinflammatory stimuli reduced miR-181b expression. Rescue of miR-181b levels by systemic administration of miR-181b "mimics" reduced downstream NF-?B signaling and leukocyte influx in the vascular endothelium and decreased lung injury and mortality in endotoxemic mice. In contrast, miR-181b inhibition exacerbated endotoxin-induced NF-?B activity, leukocyte influx, and lung injury. Finally, we observed that critically ill patients with sepsis had reduced levels of miR-181b compared with control intensive care unit (ICU) subjects. Collectively, these findings demonstrate that miR-181b regulates NF-?B-mediated EC activation and vascular inflammation in response to proinflammatory stimuli and that rescue of miR-181b expression could provide a new target for antiinflammatory therapy and critical illness.

IRF4b and IRF8 Negatively Regulate RLR-Mediated NF-κB Signaling by Targeting MITA for Degradation in Teleost Fish.

Project description:Mediator of IRF3 activation (MITA) is a significant signal adaptor in the retinoic acid-inducible gene-I like receptor (RLR) signaling pathway and plays an important role in the innate immune system. As a transcription factor, nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) can be available in many signaling pathways including the RLR signaling pathway and relative to biological processes like immune responses. In this study, it is determined that IRF4b and IRF8 can have a negative effect on NF-κB signaling pathway mediated by MITA in fish. Firstly, it is found that IRF4b and IRF8 have an inhibitory function on MITA-mediated NF-κB signaling pathway. It is interesting that IRF4b and IRF8 have similar functions to achieve precise downregulated and the degradation of MITA through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. IRF is taken as the core domain of IRF4b or IRF8 for the downregulation to MITA. This study provides data on MITA-mediated NF-κB signaling pathway in teleost fish and provides new insights into the regulatory mechanism in fish immune system.

<i>Cyprinus carpio</i> TRIF Participates in the Innate Immune Response by Inducing NF-κB and IFN Activation and Promoting Apoptosis.

Project description:TRIF, an important adaptor downstream of Toll-like receptor signaling, plays a critical role in the innate immune response. In this study, the full-length coding sequence of TRIF from common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) was cloned and characterized. Bioinformatics analysis showed that common carp TRIF exhibited a conserved TIR domain and had the closest relationship with grass carp TRIF. Expression analysis revealed that TRIF was constitutively expressed in the examined tissues of common carp, with the highest expression in the spleen and the lowest expression in the head kidney, and could be upregulated under Aeromonas hydrophila and poly(I:C) stimulation in vivo and under poly(I:C), LPS, PGN, flagellin, and Pam3CSK4 stimulation in vitro. Laser confocal microscopy showed that common carp TRIF colocalized with the Golgi apparatus. A luciferase reporter assay showed that carp TRIF elicited the activity of ifn-1 and nf-κb through the C-terminal domain. Additionally, crystal violet staining and qPCR assays revealed that carp TRIF inhibited the replication of SVCV in epithelioma papulosum cyprini (EPC) cells. Then, the signaling downstream of carp TRIF was investigated. Coimmunoprecipitation and Western blotting analysis demonstrated that carp TRIF interacted with TBK1 and augmented the expression of TRAF6 and phosphorylation of TBK1. Overexpression of carp TRIF significantly enhanced the expression of interferon-stimulated genes and inflammatory cytokines. Furthermore, flow cytometric (FCM) analysis suggested that carp TRIF induced apoptosis through the activation of caspase-8. In summary, our study indicated that TRIF plays an essential role in the innate immune responses of common carp against bacterial and viral infection.

MicroRNA-21 maintains hematopoietic stem cell homeostasis through sustaining the NF-κB signaling pathway in mice.

Project description:Long-term hematopoietic output is dependent on hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) homeostasis which is maintained by a complex molecular network. Among these, microRNAs play crucial roles, while the underlying molecular basis has not been fully elucidated. Here, we show that miR-21 is enriched in murine HSCs, and mice with conditional knockout of miR-21 exhibit an obvious perturbation in normal hematopoiesis. Moreover, significant loss of HSC quiescence and long-term reconstituting ability are observed in the absence of miR-21. Further studies reveal that miR-21 deficiency markedly decreases the NF-κB pathway, accompanied by increased expression of PDCD4, a direct target of miR-21, in HSCs. Interestingly, overexpression of PDCD4 in wild-type HSCs generates similar phenotypes as those of miR-21-deficient HSCs. More importantly, knockdown of PDCD4 can significantly rescue the attenuation of NF-κB activity, thereby improving the defects in miR-21-null HSCs. On the other hand, we find that miR-21 is capable of preventing HSCs from ionizing radiation-induced DNA damage via activation of the NF-κB pathway. Collectively, our data demonstrate that miR-21 is involved in maintaining HSC homeostasis and function, at least in part, by regulating the PDCD4-mediated NF-κB pathway and provide a new insight into the radioprotection of HSCs.

Circular RNA circDtx1 regulates IRF3-mediated antiviral immune responses through suppression of miR-15a-5p-dependent TRIF downregulation in teleost fish.

Project description:Circular RNAs (circRNAs) represent a class of widespread and diverse covalently closed circular endogenous RNAs that exert crucial functions in regulating gene expression in mammals. However, the function and regulation mechanism of circRNAs in lower vertebrates are still unknown. Here, we discovered a novel circRNA derived from Deltex E3 ubiquitin ligase 1 (Dtx1) gene, namely, circDtx1, which was related to the antiviral responses in teleost fish. Results indicated that circDtx1 played essential roles in host antiviral immunity and inhibition of SCRV replication. Our study also found a microRNA miR-15a-5p, which could inhibit antiviral immune response and promote viral replication by targeting TRIF. Moreover, we also found that the antiviral effect inhibited by miR-15a-5p could be reversed with the circDtx1. In mechanism, our data revealed that circDtx1 was a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) of TRIF by sponging miR-15a-5p, leading to activation of the NF-κB/IRF3 pathway, and then enhancing the innate antiviral responses. Our results indicated that circRNAs played a regulatory role in immune responses in teleost fish.

The Tumor Suppressor, p53, Negatively Regulates Non-Canonical NF-κB Signaling through miRNAInduced Silencing of NF-κB-Inducing Kinase.

Project description:NF-κB signaling through both canonical and non-canonical pathways plays a central role in immune responses and inflammation. NF-κB-inducing kinase (NIK) stabilization is a key step in activation of the non-canonical pathway and its dysregulation implicated in various hematologic malignancies. The tumor suppressor, p53, is an established cellular gatekeeper of proliferation. Abnormalities of the TP53 gene have been detected in more than half of all human cancers. While the non-canonical NF-κB and p53 pathways have been explored for several decades, no studies to date have documented potential cross-talk between these two cancer-related mechanisms. Here, we demonstrate that p53 negatively regulates NIK in an miRNA-dependent manner. Overexpression of p53 decreased the levels of NIK, leading to inhibition of the non-canonical NF-κB pathway. Conversely, its knockdown led to increased levels of NIK, IKKα phosphorylation, and p100 processing. Additionally, miR-34b induced by nutlin-3 directly targeted the coding sequences (CDS) of NIK. Treatment with anti-miR-34b-5p augmented NIK levels and subsequent non-canonical NF-κB signaling. Our collective findings support a novel cross-talk mechanism between non-canonical NF-κB and p53.
