Abstract
MiR-424-5p was found to be a potential regulator in the proliferation, migration, and invasion of various cancer cells. However, the effects and functional mechanism of miR-424-5p in the process of myogenesis are still unclear. Previously, using microRNA (miRNA) sequencing and expression analysis, we discovered that miR-424-5p was expressed differentially in the different skeletal muscle growth periods of Xuhuai goats. We hypothesized that miR-424-5p might play an important role in skeletal muscle myogenesis. Then, we found that the proliferation ability of the mouse myoblast cell (C2C12 myoblast cell line) was significantly augmented, whereas the C2C12 differentiation was repressed after increasing the expression of miR-424-5p. Mechanistically, HSP90AA1 presented a close interrelation with miR-424-5p, which was predicted as a target gene in the progression of skeletal muscle myogenesis, using transcriptome sequencing, dual luciferase reporter gene detection, and qRT-PCR. The silencing of HSP90AA1 obviously increased C2C12 proliferation and diminished differentiation, which is consistent with the ability of miR-424-5p in C2C12. Altogether, our findings indicated the role of miR-424-5p as a novel potential regulator via HSP90AA1 during muscle myogenesis progression.

The Mechanism of miR-155/miR-15b Axis Contributed to Apoptosis of CD34+ Cells by Upregulation of PD-L1 in Myelodysplastic Syndromes. Mediterr J Hematol Infect Dis 2023; 15:e2023040. [PMID: 37435035 PMCID: PMC10332351 DOI: 10.4084/mjhid.2023.040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2022] [Accepted: 06/17/2023] [Indexed: 07/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a group of heterogeneous myeloid clonal diseases that are characterized by ineffective bone marrow hematopoiesis. Since studies have confirmed the significance of miRNAs in ineffective hematopoiesis in MDS, the current report elucidated the mechanism mediated by miR-155-5p. The bone marrow of MDS patients was collected to detect miR-155-5p and to analyze the correlation between miR-155-5p and clinicopathological variables. Isolated bone marrow CD34+ cells were transfected with lentiviral plasmids that interfere with miR-155-5p, followed by apoptosis analysis. Finally, miR-155-5p-targeted regulation of RAC1 expression was identified, as well as the interaction between RAC1 and CREB, the co-localization of RAC1 and CREB, and the binding of CREB to miR-15b. As measured, miR-155-5p was upregulated in the bone marrow of MDS patients. Further cell experiments validated that miR-155-5p promoted CD34+ cell apoptosis. miR-155-5p could reduce the transcriptional activity of miR-15b by inhibiting RAC1, dissociating the interaction between RAC1 and CREB, and inhibiting the activation of CREB. Upregulating RAC1, CREB, or miR-15b could reduce miR-155-5p-mediated apoptosis promotion on CD34+ cells. Additionally, miR-155-5p could force PD-L1 expression, and this effect was impaired by elevating RAC1, CREB, or miR-15b. In conclusion, miR-155-5p mediates PD-L1-mediated apoptosis of CD34+ cells in MDS by RAC1/CREB/miR-15b axis, thereby inhibiting bone marrow hematopoiesis.

TSG-6 inhibits IL-1β-induced inflammatory responses and extracellular matrix degradation in nucleus pulposus cells by activating the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. J Orthop Surg Res 2022; 17:572. [PMID: 36578051 PMCID: PMC9798563 DOI: 10.1186/s13018-022-03468-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2022] [Accepted: 12/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-stimulated gene-6 (TSG-6), a secreted protein associated with inflammation, is believed to possess momentous and multiple anti-inflammatory and tissue-protective properties. However, the role and potential mechanism of TSG-6 in cervical disk degeneration (CDD) are still not clear. Hence, we aimed to explore the effect of TSG-6 on CDD. METHODS Quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was applied to detect the expression level of TSG-6 and IL-1β in normal and degenerated nucleus pulposus (NP) tissues. Then, qRT-PCR and western blot were adopted to test the TSG-6 protein expression after IL-1β treatment (10 ng/mL) in human NP cells (HNPCs). After over-expressing TSG-6, qRT-PCR was also utilized to evaluate the expression of TNF-α, IL-8, and IL-6 and the synthesis of sulfated glycosaminoglycans (sGAGs), western blot to check the expression of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins [collagen II, aggrecan, and matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3)], pain-related molecules (CGRP, calcitonin gene-related peptide; NGF, nerve growth factor; SP, substance P), and PI3K/Akt signaling pathway-related proteins. RESULTS Briefly speaking, TSG-6 and IL-1β expression levels were significantly increased in CDD patient tissues; and IL-1β treatment could significantly increase TSG-6 expression in HNPCs. Further research revealed that, in addition to greatly promoting sGAGs synthesis, TSG-6 over-expression also inhibited TNF-α, IL-8, and IL-6 expression and ECM degradation in IL-1β-induced HNPCs. (The collagen II and aggrecan expression was up-regulated and MMP-3 expression was down-regulated.) Furthermore, over-expression of TSG-6 could decrease the levels of CGRP, NGF, and SP protein expression and activate the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway in IL-1β-treated HNPCs. CONCLUSION TSG-6 inhibits inflammatory responses, ECM degradation, and expression of pain-related molecules in IL-1β-induced HNPCs by activating the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.

Role of Caspase Family in Intervertebral Disc Degeneration and Its Therapeutic Prospects. Biomolecules 2022; 12:biom12081074. [PMID: 36008968 PMCID: PMC9406018 DOI: 10.3390/biom12081074] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2022] [Revised: 07/31/2022] [Accepted: 08/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) is a common musculoskeletal degenerative disease worldwide, of which the main clinical manifestation is low back pain (LBP); approximately, 80% of people suffer from it in their lifetime. Currently, the pathogenesis of IVDD is unclear, and modern treatments can only alleviate its symptoms but cannot inhibit or reverse its progression. However, in recent years, targeted therapy has led to new therapeutic strategies. Cysteine-containing aspartate proteolytic enzymes (caspases) are a family of proteases present in the cytoplasm. They are evolutionarily conserved and are involved in cell growth, differentiation, and apoptotic death of eukaryotic cells. In recent years, it has been confirmed to be involved in the pathogenesis of various diseases, mainly by regulating cell apoptosis and inflammatory response. With continuous research on the pathogenesis and pathological process of IVDD, an increasing number of studies have shown that caspases are closely related to the IVDD process, especially in the intervertebral disc (IVD) cell apoptosis and inflammatory response. Therefore, herein we study the role of caspases in IVDD with respect to the structure of caspases and the related signaling pathways involved. This would help explore the strategy of regulating the activity of the caspases involved and develop caspase inhibitors to prevent and treat IVDD. The aim of this review was to identify the caspases involved in IVDD which could be potential targets for the treatment of IVDD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The combined restoration of tumor-suppressive microRNAs (miRs) has been identified as a promising approach for inhibiting breast cancer development. This study investigated the effect of the combined restoration of miR-424-5p and miR-142-3p on MCF-7 cells and compared the efficacy of the combined therapy with the monotherapies with miR-424-5p and miR-142-3p. METHODS After transfection of miR-424-5p and miR-142-3p mimics into MCF-7 cells in the combined and separated manner, the proliferation of tumoral cells was assessed by the MTT assay. Also, the apoptosis, autophagy, and cell cycle of the cells were analyzed by flow cytometry. Western blot and qRT-PCR were used to study the expression levels of c-Myc, Bcl-2, Bax, STAT-3, Oct-3, and Beclin-1. RESULTS Our results have demonstrated that the combined restoration of miR-424-5p and miR-142-3p is more effective in inhibiting tumor proliferation via upregulating Bax and Beclin-1 and downregulating Bcl-2 and c-Myc. Besides, the combined therapy has arrested the cell cycle in the sub-G1 and G2 phases and has suppressed the clonogenicity via downregulating STAT-3 and Oct-3, respectively. CONCLUSION The combined restoration of miR-424-5p and miR-142-3p is more effective in inhibiting MCF-7 breast cancer development than monotherapies with miR-424-5p and miR-142-3p.
