Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are secreted by various tissues and cells under normal physiological or pathological conditions. Exercise-induced EVs may be involved in the adaptation of exercise-induced fatigue. The 1500-m freestyle is the longest pool-based swimming event in the Olympic Games, and there is a paucity of information regarding changes in the miRNA profiles of circulating EVs after a single session of fatiguing swimming. In this study, 13 male freestyle swimmers conducted a fatiguing 1500-m freestyle swimming session at the speed of their best previously recorded swimming performance. Fasting venous blood was collected before and after the swimming session for analysis. 70 miRNAs from the circulating EVs were found to be differentially expressed after the fatiguing 1500-m freestyle swimming session, among which 45 and 25 miRNAs were up-regulated and down-regulated, respectively. As for the target genes of five miRNAs (miR-144-3p, miR-145-3p, miR-509-5p, miR-891b, and miR-890) with the largest expression-fold variation, their functional enrichment analysis demonstrated that the target genes were involved in the regulation of long-term potentiation (LTP), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), glutathione metabolism pathway, dopaminergic synapse, signal transmission, and other biological processes. In summary, these findings reveal that a single session of fatiguing swimming modifies the miRNAs profiles of the circulating EVs, especially miR-144-3p, miR-145-3p, miR-509-5p, miR-891b, and miR-890, which clarifies new mechanisms for the adaptation to a single session of fatiguing exercise from the perspective of EV-miRNAs.

PESTICIDE BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2023; 191:105380.

Abstract
Apoptosis, as an important part of the immune response, is one of the core events in the host-virus interaction. Studies have shown that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in the process of cell apoptosis and pathophysiology. To investigate the apoptosis-related lncRNAs involved in Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) infecting silkworms, transcriptome sequencing was conducted based on silkworm cells infected with BmNPV before and after B. mori inhibitor of apoptosis (Bmiap) gene knockout. A total of 23 differentially expressed lncRNAs were identified as being associated with the mitochondrial apoptosis pathway. Moreover, we demonstrated that B. mori LINC5438 has the function of inhibiting apoptosis in silkworm cells. Overexpression of LINC5438 promoted the proliferation of BmNPV, while interference with LINC5438 inhibited its proliferation, indicating that LINC5438 plays an important role in BmNPV infection. Our results also showed that LINC5438 can regulate the expression of Bmiap, BmDronc, BmICE, and its predicted target gene BmAIF, suggesting that LINC5438 may function through the mitochondrial pathway. These findings provide important insights into the mechanisms of virus-host interaction and the applications of baculoviruses as biological insecticides.

Abstract
Proanthocyanidins (PC), a natural flavonoid compound, was reported to possess a variety of pharmacological activities such as anti-tumor and anti-viral effects. In this study, the anti-Enterovirus 71 (EV71) activities and mechanisms of PC were investigated both in vitro and in vivo. The results showed that PC possessed anti-EV71 activities in different cell lines with low toxicity. PC can block both the adsorption and entry processes of EV71 via directly binding to virus VP1 protein. PC may competitively interfere with the binding of VP1 to its receptor SCARB2. PC can also regulate three different MAPK signaling pathways to reduce EV71 infection and attenuate virus induced inflammatory responses. Importantly, intramuscular therapy of EV71-infected mice with PC markedly improved their survival and attenuated the severe clinical symptoms. Therefore, the natural compound PC has potential to be developed into a novel anti-EV71 agent targeting viral VP1 protein and MAPK pathways.

Abstract
Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) represent the largest and main transcriptome products and play various roles in the biological activity of cells and pathological processes. Accumulating evidence shows that microRNA (miRNA), long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), and circular RNA (circRNA) are important ncRNAs that play vital regulatory roles during viral infection. Hand-foot-mouth disease (HFMD) virus causes hand-foot-mouth disease, and is also associated with various serious complications and high mortality. However, there is currently no effective treatment. In this review, we focus on advances in the understanding of the modulatory role of ncRNAs during HFMD virus infection. Specifically, we discuss the generation, classification, and regulatory mechanisms of miRNA, lncRNA, and circRNA in the interaction between virus and host, with a particular focus on their influence with viral replication and infection. Analysis of these underlying mechanisms can help provide a foundation for the development of ncRNA-based antiviral therapies.

[PMID: 35834877 DOI: 10.1016/j.molimm.2022.07.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/30/2021] [Revised: 07/06/2022] [Accepted: 07/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
Diarrhea of piglets caused by Clostridium perfringens type C (C. perfringens type C) infection is a global problem afflicting piglet production. Long noncoding RNA (LncRNA) and microRNA (miRNA) have emerged as critical regulators of this pathological process, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, we first observed the expression changes of ALDBSSCG0000000898 (ALDB-898) and ssc-miR-122-5p in infected ileum tissue of piglets with C. perfringens type C, and then used C. perfringens beta2 toxin (CPB2) to induce intestinal porcine epithelial cells (IPEC-J2) to construct an injury model. Cytometry kit 8 (CCK-8), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), Western blot, flow cytometry and fluorescein isothiocyanate-dextran 4 (FITC-Dextran 4) flux assays were performed to study the effect of ALDB-898 and ssc-miR-122-5p in apoptosis, inflammation and intestinal barrier damage and inflammatory in IPEC-J2 cells induced by CPB2. In addition, dual-luciferase reporter gene analysis was performed to confirm the relationship between ssc-miR-122-5p and ALDB-898 or ssc-miR-122-5p and occludin (OCLN), respectively. There were lower expression levels of ALDB-898 and OCLN and higher expression levels of ssc-miR-122-5p in diarrhea piglets caused by Clostridium perfringens type C. ALDB-898 and OCLN were significantly decreased and ssc-miR-122-5p was increased in IPEC-J2 after exposure to the CPB2 in a dose- and time-dependent manner. ALDB-898 overexpression mitigated CPB2-induced cell injury by promoting viability, restraining apoptosis, cytotoxicity, and inflammatory response, as well as weakening the destruction of the intestinal barrier. Further mechanisms disclosed that ALDB-898 functioned as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) via binding to ssc-miR-122-5p, and OCLN was a target of ssc-miR-122-5p. Importantly, the ssc-miR-122-5p mimic led to abolishing the protective function of ALDB-898 on CPB2-induced IPEC-J2 cell damage, and the addition of OCLN reversed the negative impact of ssc-miR-122-5p, thereby restoring the protection of ALDB-898. Our data showed that ALDB-898 could enhance the expression of OCLN through competitive binding ssc-miR-122-5p to suppress CPB2-induced damage. The ALDB-898/ssc-miR-122-5p/OCLN signaling may be a candidate therapeutic pathway for diarrhea of piglets.

Abstract
Enterovirus 71 (EV71) is the main pathogenic virus that causes hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD). Studies have reported that EV71-induced infections including aseptic meningitis, acute flaccid paralysis, and even neurogenic pulmonary edema, can progress to severe neurological complications in infants, young children, and the immunosuppressed population. However, the mechanisms through which EV71 causes neurological diseases have not been fully explored. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), are RNAs that do not code for proteins, play a key role in biological processes and disease development associated with EV71. In this review, we summarized recent advances concerning the impacts of ncRNAs on neurological diseases caused by interaction between EV71 and host, revealing the potential role of ncRNAs in pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of EV71-induced neurological complications.

Abstract
Hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) caused by Enterovirus type 71 (EV71) is a serious threat to children's health. However, the pathogenic mechanism of EV71 is still unclear. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), some of which bind to miRNA as competitive endogenous RNAs (ceRNA) and weaken the silencing effect on the mRNA of downstream target genes, play a key role in regulating the viral infection process. In this study, through experimental verification, we found miR-4443 to be downregulated in cells infected with EV71. Next, by predicting lncRNAs that potentially regulate miR-4443, we found that EV71 infection induced upregulation of lncRNA ENST00000469812 and then further downregulated miR-4443 expression by direct interaction. We also demonstrated that nuclear protein 1 (NUPR1) is one of the target genes of miR-4443 and is involved in the ENST00000469812/miR-4443/NUPR1 regulatory axis. Finally, the ENST00000469812/miR-4443/NUPR1 regulatory axis exhibited a positive effect on EV71 replication. Here, we lay a foundation for exploring the pathogenic mechanism of EV71 and identify potential targets for HFMD treatment.

Abstract
Chlamydia trachomatis persistent infection is the leading cause of male prostatitis and female genital tract diseases. Inhibition of host cell apoptosis is the key to maintaining Chlamydia survival in vivo, and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in its developmental cycle and pathogenesis. However, it is not clear how lncRNAs regulate persistent Chlamydia infection. Here, using a microarray method, we identified 1718 lncRNAs and 1741 mRNAs differentially expressed in IFN-γ-induced persistent C. trachomatis infection. Subsequently, 10 upregulated and 5 downregulated differentially expressed lncRNAs were verified by qRT-PCR to confirm the reliability of the chip data. The GO and KEGG analyses revealed that differentially regulated transcripts were predominantly involved in various signalling pathways related to host immunity and apoptosis response. Targeted silencing of three lncRNAs (MIAT, ZEB1-AS1 and IRF1) resulted in increased apoptosis rates. Furthermore, interference with lncRNA MIAT caused not only an obvious downregulation of the Bcl-2/Bax ratio but also a marked release of cytochrome c, resulting in a significantly elevated level of caspase-3 activation. Meanwhile, MIAT was involved in the regulation of chlamydial development during the persistent infection. Collectively, these observations shed light on the enormous complex lncRNA regulatory networks involved in mitochondria-mediated host cell apoptosis and the growth and development of C. trachomatis.

Abstract
Background With the advancement of sequencing technologies, a plethora of noncoding RNA (ncRNA) species have been widely discovered, including microRNAs (miRNAs), circular RNAs (circRNAs), and long ncRNAs (lncRNAs). However, the mechanism of these non-coding RNAs in diseases caused by enterovirus d68 (EV-D68) remains unclear. The goal of this research was to identify significantly altered circRNAs, lncRNAs, miRNAs, and mRNAs pathways in RD cells infected with EV-D68, analyze their target relationships, demonstrate the competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) regulatory network, and evaluate their biological functions. Methods The total RNAs were sequenced by high-throughput sequencing technology, and differentially expressed genes between control and infection groups were screened using bioinformatics method. We discovered the targeting relationship between three ncRNAs and mRNA using bioinformatics methods, and then built a ceRNA regulatory network centered on miRNA. The biological functions of differentially expressed mRNAs (DEmRNAs) were discovered through GO and KEGG enrichment analysis. Create a protein interaction network (PPI) to seek for hub mRNAs and learn more about protein–protein interactions. The relative expression was verified using RT-qPCR. The effects of Fos and ARRDC3 on virus replication were confirmed using RT-qPCR, virus titer (TCID50/ml), Western blotting. Results 375 lncRNAs (154 upregulated and 221 downregulated), 33 circRNAs (32 upregulated and 1 downregulated), 96 miRNAs (49 upregulated and 47 downregulated), and 239 mRNAs (135 upregulated and 104 downregulated) were identified as differently in infected group compare to no-infected group. A single lncRNA or circRNA can be connected with numerous miRNAs, which subsequently coregulate additional mRNAs, according to the ceRNA regulatory network. The majority of DEmRNAs were shown to be connected to DNA binding, transcription regulation by RNA polymerase II, transcription factor, MAPK signaling pathways, Hippo signal pathway, and apoptosis pathway, according to GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis. The hub mRNAs with EGR1, Fos and Jun as the core were screened through PPI interaction network. We preliminarily demonstrated that the Fos and ARRDC3 genes can suppress EV-D68 viral replication in order to further verify the results of full transcriptome sequencing. Conclusion The results of whole transcriptome analysis after EV-D68 infection of RD cells were first reported in this study, and for the first time, a ceRNA regulation network containing miRNA at its center was established for the first time. The Fos and ARRDC3 genes were found to hinder viral in RD cells. This study establishes a novel insight host response during EV-D68 infection and further investigated potential drug targets.

Abstract
Enteroviruses (EVs) are common RNA viruses that can cause various types of human diseases and conditions such as hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD), myocarditis, meningitis, sepsis, and respiratory disorders. Although EV infections in most patients are generally mild and self-limiting, a small number of young children can develop serious complications such as encephalitis, acute flaccid paralysis, myocarditis, and cardiorespiratory failure, resulting in fatalities. Established evidence has suggested that certain non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) such as microRNAs (miRNAs), long ncRNAs (lncRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs) are involved in the occurrence and progression of many human diseases. Recently, the involvement of ncRNAs in the course of EV infection has been reported. Herein, the authors focus on recent advances in the understanding of ncRNAs in EV infection from basic viral pathogenesis to clinical prospects, providing a reference basis and new ideas for disease prevention and research directions.

Abstract
MicroRNA-derived structures play impressive roles in various biological processes. So dysregulation of miRNAs can lead to different human diseases. Recent studies have extended our comprehension of the control of miRNA function and features. Here, we overview some remarkable miRNA properties that have potential implications for the miRNA functions, including different variants of a miRNA called isomiRs, miRNA arm selection/arm switching, and the effect of these factors on miRNA target selection. Besides, we review some aspects of miRNA interactions such as the interaction between epigenetics and miRNA (different miRNAs and their related processing enzymes are epigenetically regulated by multiple DNA methylation enzymes. moreover, DNA methylation could be controlled by diverse mechanisms related to miRNAs), direct and indirect crosstalk between miRNA and lnc (Long Non-Coding) RNAs as a further approach to conduct intercellular regulation called "competing endogenous RNA" (ceRNA) that is involved in the pathogenesis of different diseases, and the interaction of miRNA activities and some Xeno-infectious (virus/bacteria/parasite) factors, which result in modulation of the pathogenesis of infections. This review provides some related studies to a better understanding of miRNA involvement mechanisms and overcoming the complexity of related diseases that may be applicable and useful to prognostic, diagnostic, therapeutic purposes and personalized medicine in the future.

Identification and analysis of long non-coding RNAs that are involved in inflammatory process in response to transmissible gastroenteritis virus infection. BMC Genomics 2019; 20:806. [PMID: 31684870 PMCID: PMC6829948 DOI: 10.1186/s12864-019-6156-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2019] [Accepted: 10/09/2019] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) infection can cause acute inflammation. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in a number of biological process including inflammation response. However, whether lncRNAs participate in TGEV-induced inflammation in porcine intestinal epithelial cells (IPECs) is largely unknown. Results In this study, the next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology was used to analyze the profiles of lncRNAs in Mock and TGEV-infected porcine intestinal epithelial cell-jejunum 2 (IPEC-J2) cell line. A total of 106 lncRNAs were differentially expressed. Many differentially expressed lncRNAs act as elements to competitively attach microRNAs (miRNAs) which target to messenger RNA (mRNAs) to mediate expression of genes that related to toll-like receptors (TLRs), NOD-like receptors (NLRs), tumor necrosis factor (TNF), and RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs) pathways. Functional analysis of the binding proteins and the up/down-stream genes of the differentially expressed lncRNAs revealed that lncRNAs were principally related to inflammatory response. Meanwhile, we found that the differentially expressed lncRNA TCONS_00058367 might lead to a reduction of phosphorylation of transcription factor p65 (p-p65) in TGEV-infected IPEC-J2 cells by negatively regulating its antisense gene promyelocytic leukemia (PML). Conclusions The data showed that differentially expressed lncRNAs might be involved in inflammatory response induced by TGEV through acting as miRNA sponges, regulating their up/down-stream genes, or directly binding proteins.
