MiR-145 antagonist effect in house dust mite model of asthma
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Purpose: Identify whole lung gene expression patterns modified by nanoparticle delivery of an antisense LNA/DNA oligonucleotide targeting mmu-miR145a-5p and nontargeting oligonucleotides Methods: Lung gene expression profiles of 10 week old BALB/c female mice were generated by polyA RNA-seq with Illumina HiSeq v4. Sequence reads that passed quality filters after timming were analyzed at the gene level with RNA STAR, featureCounts and Deseq2 . qRT–PCR validation was performed using TaqMan and SYBR Green methods. Results: 10-15 million sequence reads per sample were mapped to the mouse genome (build mm10). Pathway analysis of differentially expressed genes identified upregulation of gene sets for human asthma, mouse lung allergic inflammation, Muc5ac regulated genes and smooth muscle genes after allergic sensitization. Gene level exppression in each asthma-related pathway was reduced by the miR-145 antagonist. The miR-145 antagonist and several nontargeting oligos also upregulated interferon signaling pathways suggesting a general antiinflammatory effect of LNA/DNA oligos in the lung. Conclusions: Lung-directed delivery of LNA/DNA oligonucleotides with cationic lipid nanoparticles is an efffective means to prevent inflammatory gene expression in a house dust mite model of asthma
