Abstract
To explore the role of the miRNA-1297/phospholipase Cβ1 (PLCβ1) axis in intestinal barrier injury. Abnormally expressed miR-1297 and its target gene PLCβ1 as well as their transcriptome sequencing were confirmed by bioinformatics analysis. Next, the intestinal barrier injury was induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in the CCCHIE-2 cells. Subsequently, the impacts of miR-1297 and PLCβ1 on the transcriptome were estimated. QRT-PCR and Western blotting were conducted to detect the relative mRNA and protein expressions, respectively. The cell viability and permeability were analyzed by MTT assay and fluorescent yellow detection. miR-1297 was significantly upregulated in patients with human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and targeted PLCβ1. Moreover, overexpressed PLCβ1 was mainly enriched in the transforming growth factor-beta signaling pathway, while the knockdown of miR-1297 was focused on the arginine biosynthesis pathway. The overexpression of miR-1297 could reduce the PLCβ1 expression and inhibit the viability of CCCHIE-2 cells injured by LPS, while the effect of the downregulation of miR-1297 was on the opposite. Western blotting and cell fluorescence localization experiments revealed that the inhibition of miR-1297 increased the expressions of PLCβ1 and ZO-1. In addition, the upregulation of miR-1297 strengthened the permeability in cells injured by LPS, as did the knockdown of PLCβ1. miR-1297 could restrain the repair of intestinal barrier injury via negatively regulating PLCβ1 and its tight junction downstream protein ZO-1 in CCC-HIE-2 cells injured by LPS, which indicated that PLCβ1 and miR-1297 might be important targets for the repair of intestinal barrier injury.

MicroRNA Profiles in Monocyte-Derived Macrophages Generated by Interleukin-27 and Human Serum: Identification of a Novel HIV-Inhibiting and Autophagy-Inducing MicroRNA. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22031290. [PMID: 33525571 PMCID: PMC7865382 DOI: 10.3390/ijms22031290] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2020] [Revised: 01/25/2021] [Accepted: 01/26/2021] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
Interleukin-27 (IL-27) is a pleiotropic cytokine that influences the innate and adaptive immune systems. It inhibits viral infection and regulates the expression of microRNAs (miRNAs). We recently reported that macrophages differentiated from human primary monocytes in the presence of IL-27 and human AB serum resisted human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and showed significant autophagy induction. In the current study, the miRNA profiles in these cells were investigated, especially focusing on the identification of novel miRNAs regulated by IL-27-treatment. The miRNA sequencing analysis detected 38 novel miRNAs. Real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis confirmed that IL-27 differentially regulated the expression of 16 of the 38 miRNAs. Overexpression of the synthesized miRNA mimics by transfection revealed that miRAB40 had potent HIV-inhibiting and autophagy-inducing properties. B18R, an interferon (IFN)-neutralization protein, partially suppressed both activities, indicating that the two functions were induced via IFN-dependent and -independent pathways. Although the target mRNA(s) of miRAB40 involving in the induction of both functions was unable to identify in this study, the discovery of miRAB40, a potential HIV-inhibiting and autophagy inducing miRNA, may provide novel insights into the miRNA (small none-coding RNA)-mediated regulation of HIV inhibition and autophagy induction as an innate immune response.
