Abstract
BACKGROUND A chronic condition that significantly reduces a child's quality of life is allergic rhinitis (AR). The environment and allergens that the body is regularly exposed to can cause inflammatory and immunological reactions, which can change the expression of certain genes Epigenetic changes are closely linked to the onset and severity of allergy disorders according to mounting amounts of data. Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) are a group of RNA molecules that cannot be converted into polypeptides. The three main categories of ncRNAs include microRNAs (miRNAs), long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs). NcRNAs play a crucial role in controlling gene expression and contribute to the development of numerous human diseases. METHODS Articles are selected based on Pubmed's literature review and the author's personal knowledge. The largest and highest quality studies were included. The search selection is not standardized. RESULTS Recent findings indicate that various categories of ncRNAs play distinct yet interconnected roles and actively contribute to intricate gene regulatory networks. CONCLUSION This article demonstrates the significance and progress of ncRNAs in children's AR. The database covers three key areas: miRNAs, lncRNAs, and circRNAs. Additionally, potential avenues for future research to facilitate the practical application of ncRNAs as therapeutic targets and biomarkers will be explore.

Ishibashi O, Muljo SA, Islam Z. Regulation of Macrophage Polarization in Allergy by Noncoding RNAs. Noncoding RNA 2023; 9:75. [PMID: 38133209 PMCID: PMC10745746 DOI: 10.3390/ncrna9060075] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2023] [Revised: 11/29/2023] [Accepted: 12/04/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023] Open
Abstract
Allergy is a type 2 immune reaction triggered by antigens known as allergens, including food and environmental substances such as peanuts, plant pollen, fungal spores, and the feces and debris of mites and insects. Macrophages are myeloid immune cells with phagocytic abilities that process exogenous and endogenous antigens. Upon activation, they can produce effector molecules such as cytokines as well as anti-inflammatory molecules. The dysregulation of macrophage function can lead to excessive type 1 inflammation as well as type 2 inflammation, which includes allergic reactions. Thus, it is important to better understand how macrophages are regulated in the pathogenesis of allergies. Emerging evidence highlights the role of noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) in macrophage polarization, which in turn can modify the pathogenesis of various immune-mediated diseases, including allergies. This review summarizes the current knowledge regarding this topic and considers three classes of ncRNAs: microRNAs, long ncRNAs, and circular ncRNAs. Understanding the roles of these ncRNAs in macrophage polarization will provide new insights into the pathogenesis of allergies and identify potential novel therapeutic targets.

HDAC3-mediated lncRNA ZFAS1 inhibited IL-13-induced secretion of proinflammatory cytokines in nasal epithelial cells by regulating the miR-7-5p/SIRT1 pathway. Int J Immunogenet 2023; 50:281-290. [PMID: 37700429 DOI: 10.1111/iji.12627] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2023] [Revised: 06/13/2023] [Accepted: 07/02/2023] [Indexed: 09/14/2023]
Abstract
Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a disease that is difficult to cure and accompanies the patient's life. Proinflammatory cytokines (GM-CSF and eotaxin) and MUC5AC are key mediators promoting AR progression. Herein, the function of lncRNA ZFAS1 in AR was investigated. Nasal epithelial cells (NECs) were subjected to 50 ng/mL IL-13 for 24 h to construct an AR cell model. The mRNA and protein expressions were assessed using qRT-PCR and western blot. The levels of GM-CSF, eotaxin, IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α and MUC5AC in cell supernatant were examined by ELISA. The binding relationships between HDAC3, ZFAS1, miR-7-5p and SIRT1 were analysed using dual luciferase reporter or ChIP assays. Herein, our results displayed that ZFAS1 and SIRT1 were lowly expressed in AR, while miR-7-5p and HDAC3 were highly expressed. Functional experiments displayed that ZFAS1 overexpression suppressed IL-13-induced proinflammatory cytokines and mucin production in NECs. The highly expressed HDAC3 in AR inhibited ZFAS1 expression by binding with ZFAS1 promoter. In addition, our experiments revealed that ZFAS1 targeted miR-7-5p, and miR-7-5p targeted SIRT1. As expected, miR-7-5p overexpression or SIRT1 silencing abrogated ZFAS1 upregulation's repression on IL-13-induced proinflammatory cytokines and MUC5AC secretory levels in NECs. ZFAS1 suppressed proinflammatory cytokines, inflammatory cytokines, and MUC5AC secretory levels in AR by regulating the miR-7-5p/SIRT1 axis. Thus, our work suggested that ZFAS1 might serve as a novel target for AR treatment and prevention.

Abstract
Macrophage polarization is a dynamic process determining the outcome of various physiological and pathological situations through inducing pro-inflammatory responses or resolving inflammation via exerting anti-inflammatory effects. The miRNAs are epigenetic regulators of different biologic pathways that target transcription factors and signaling molecules to promote macrophage phenotype transition and regulate immune responses. Modulating the macrophage activation, differentiation, and polarization by miRNAs is crucial for immune responses in response to microenvironmental signals and under various physiological and pathological conditions. In term of clinical significance, regulating macrophage polarization via miRNAs could be utilized for inflammation control. Also, understanding the role of miRNAs in macrophage polarization can provide insights into diagnostic strategies associated with dysregulated miRNAs and for developing macrophage-centered therapeutic methods. In this case, targeting miRNAs to further regulate of macrophage polarization may become an efficient strategy for treating immune-associated disorders. The current review investigated and categorized various miRNAs directly or indirectly involved in macrophage polarization by targeting different transcription factors and signaling pathways. In addition, prospects for regulating macrophage polarization via miRNA as a therapeutic choice that could be implicated in various pathological conditions, including cancer or inflammation-mediated injuries, were discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The identification of microRNA (miRNA)-related molecular mechanisms has advanced the development of new therapeutics for atherosclerosis (AS). The roles of miR-202-5p- in the pathogenic mechanisms of AS have not been explored. METHODS Macrophages were transfected with a series of miR-202-5p mimic/inhibitor, and then assessed for changes in viability, apoptosis, and secretion of inflammatory cytokines. The regulatory mechanism of miR-202-5p was explored through dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. A mouse model of AS was developed in ApoE-/- mice fed with high-fat diet to examine the in vivo effects of miR-202-5p on atherosclerotic plaque formation, collagen synthesis, and fiber cap thickness. RESULTS Elevated miR-202-5p was found in atherosclerotic plaque tissues of the mice. miR-202-5p was able to induce macrophage apoptosis and release of pro-inflammatory factors. Besides, miR-202-5p limited Bcl-2 expression and elevated the levels of Bax, cleaved caspase-3, and cleaved caspase-9. Bcl-2 was concluded as a target gene of miR-202-5p. The pro-apoptotic effect of miR-202-5p on macrophages was achieved via limiting Bcl-2. In the mouse AS model, restoration of miR-202-5p stimulated atherosclerotic plaque formation, but reduced collagen synthesis and fiber cap thickness. CONCLUSION These data collectively suggest a pro-apoptotic action of miR-202-5p in macrophages that contributes to atherosclerotic plaque formation.

Abstract
The pathophysiology of allergic rhinitis (AR), one of the most common diseases in the world, is still not sufficiently understood. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), which are secreted by host and bacteria cells and take part in near and distant intracellular communication, can provide information about AR. Recently, attention has been drawn to the potential use of EVs as biomarkers, vaccines, or transporters for drug delivery. In this review, we present an up-to-date literature overview on EVs in AR to reveal their potential clinical significance in this condition. A comprehensive and systematic literature search was conducted following PRISMA statement guidelines for original, completed articles, available in English concerning EVs and AR. For this purpose, PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane, were searched up until 10 Novenmber 2022. From 275 records, 18 articles were included for analysis. The risk of bias was assessed for all studies as low or moderate risk of overall bias using the Office and Health Assessment and Translation Risk of Bias Rating Tool for Human and Animal Studies. We presented the role of exosomes in the pathophysiology of AR and highlighted the possibility of using exosomes as biomarkers and treatment in this disease.

Abstract
Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a type I hypersensitivity reaction disease caused by inhaled allergens and immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated. Noncoding RNA (ncRNA) is an important regulator involved in gene expression and can be detected in the cytoplasm or extracellular fluid, which mainly includes microRNAs (miRNA, length 22-24 nucleotides), long noncoding RNAs (lncRNA, length >200 nucleotides), and circRNAs. LncRNA and miRNA both participate in the regulation of immune function. Some respiratory viral infections can aggravate allergic rhinitis, such as a respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and human metapneumovirus (hMPV). However, the interaction between viral infection and allergy is complex and the mechanism is still unclear. In this review, we summarized the interactions of noncoding RNAs and viruses in the occurrence and development of AR, along with the treatments focusing on the noncoding RNAs in the past five years.

Abstract
Allergic rhinitis and asthma are common airway allergic diseases, the incidence of which has increased annually in recent years. The human body is frequently exposed to allergens and environmental irritants that trigger immune and inflammatory responses, resulting in altered gene expression. Mounting evidence suggested that epigenetic alterations were strongly associated with the progression and severity of allergic diseases. Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) are a class of transcribed RNA molecules that cannot be translated into polypeptides and consist of three major categories, microRNAs (miRNAs), long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs). Previous studies showed that ncRNAs were involved in the physiopathological mechanisms of airway allergic diseases and contributed to their occurrence and development. This article reviews the current state of understanding of the role of noncoding RNAs in airway allergic diseases, highlights the limitations of recent studies, and outlines the prospects for further research to facilitate the clinical translation of noncoding RNAs as therapeutic targets and biomarkers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the esophagus marked by eosinophilic infiltration. Cumulative evidence indicates that the risk of EoE involves the complex interplay of both genetic and environmental factors. Because only a few genetic loci have been identified in EoE, the genetic underpinning of EoE remains largely elusive. OBJECTIVE We sought to identify genetic loci associated with EoE. METHODS Four EoE cohorts were genotyped using the Illumina single nucleotide polymorphism array platform, totaling 1,930 cases and 13,634 controls of European ancestry. Genotype imputation was performed with the Michigan Imputation Server using the Trans-Omics for Precision Medicine reference panel including whole-genome sequencing data from more than 100,000 individuals. Meta-analysis was conducted to identify potential novel genetic loci associated with EoE. RESULTS Our study identified 11 new genome-wide significant loci, of which 6 are common variant loci, including 5q31.1 (rs2106984, P = 4.16 × 10-8; odds ratio [OR], 1.26, RAD50), 15q22.2 (rs2279293, P = 1.23 × 10-10; OR, 0.69, RORA), and 15q23 (rs56062135, P = 2.91 × 10-11; OR, 1.29, SMAD3), which have been previously associated with allergic conditions. Interestingly, a low-frequency synonymous mutation within the MATN2 gene was identified as the most significant single nucleotide polymorphism at the 8q22.1 locus. We also identified 5 sex-specific loci in the EoE cases, including an inflammatory bowel disease-associated locus at 9p24.1 (rs62541556, P = 4.4 × 10-8; OR, 1.11, JAK2). CONCLUSIONS Our findings demonstrate shared genetic underpinnings between EoE and other immune-mediated diseases and provide novel candidate genes for therapeutic target identification and prioritization.

Abstract
Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the nasal mucosa. M2 macrophage polarization can reduce inflammation and repair tissue injury during AR development. Studies have substantiated the involvement of miRNAs in AR pathogenesis. Herein, the molecular mechanism of miR-214-3p in AR development was explored. To mimic the AR environment, ovalbumin (OVA) was used to treat macrophages. MiR-214-3p and glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta (GSK3B) expression in nasal mucus tissues and macrophages was assessed by RT-qPCR. The M2 phenotypic signature of CD206 in macrophages was assessed by flow cytometry. The protein expression of GSK3B and M2 macrophage markers (ARG-1 and IL-10) was evaluated by western blotting. The correlation between miR-214-3p and GSK3B was validated by a luciferase reporter assay. We found that miR-214-3p was overexpressed in macrophages and nasal mucus tissues from AR patients. MiR-214-3p facilitated M2 polarization of macrophages upon OVA stimulation. Mechanistically, miR-214-3p targeted the GSK3B 3' untranslated region in macrophages. In addition, GSK3B was downregulated in macrophages and nasal mucus tissues from AR patients. In rescue assays, GSK3B downregulation reversed the inhibitory effects of miR-214-3p silencing on M2 polarization of macrophages treated with OVA. Overall, miR-214-3p facilitates M2 macrophage polarization by targeting GSK3B.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Allergic rhinitis (AR) is one of the most common noninfectious respiratory diseases caused by immunoglobulin E (IgE) response. OBJECTIVE The study sought to explore the relationship between lncRNA MIAT and miR-10b-5p and their interaction in the regulation of allergic phenotypes in allergic rhinitis (AR) mice. METHODS A mice model of AR was constructed using ovalbumin (OVA) sensitization. AR mice were treated with miR-10b-5p agomiR and LNA mediated lncRNA MIAT. The targeting relationship between MIAT and miR-10b-5p was analyzed by the ENCORI website and dual-luciferase reporter assay. The numbers of rubbing and sneezing of mice were counted. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining visualized the eosinophils infiltration in nasal mucosa tissues of mice. The percentage of Th17 cells was quantitated by flow cytometry analysis. ELISA was used to detect the levels of serum OVA-specific IgE, the Th12 cytokine IL-4, and inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-17). RESULTS MIAT was up-regulated in the nasal mucosa of AR mice, while miR-10b-5p was down-regulated. MIAT directly suppressed miR-10b-5p expression in AR mice. The numbers of rubbing and sneezing, the percentage of Th17 cells, and the levels of OVA-specific IgE, IL-4, IL-6, and IL-17 in AR mice were decreased by miR-10b-5p overexpression, which was reversed by MIAT overexpression. The eosinophils infiltration in AR mice was inhibited by miR-10b-5p overexpression, which was also reversed by MIAT overexpression. CONCLUSION The present study demonstrates that MIAT overexpression Promotes allergic inflammation and symptoms by activating Th17 immune response via miR-10b-5p inhibition.

Abstract
Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a familiar respiratory allergic inflammatory disease with higher incidence. The pathogenesis of AR is particularly complex. Therefore, a lot of work is acquired to excavate deep mechanisms, thereby providing effective strategies for AR diagnose and treatment. AR mice model was induced by recombinant murine IL-33 (0.05 µg/µl) on days 1, 3, and 5. The lentiviral vectors carrying si-circ_0067835, miR-155 mimic, si-NC or miR-NC were injected into AR mice. Thus, mice were divided into control, AR, AR + si-NC, AR + si-circ_0067835, AR + si-circ_0067835 + miR-NC, and AR + si-circ_0067835 + miR-155 mimic groups. qRT-PCR experiment was used to measure the expression of circ_0067835 and miR-155. Behavioral test result was quantified to assess AR mice model. Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining was performed to analyze histopathological changes. Helper T cell 2 (Th2) cytokines (IL-4, IL-5, IL-9 and IL-13) and percentage of type-2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) in nasal mucosa tissues in AR mice model were evaluated needing western blot, ELISA, and flow cytometry. Besides, the targeting relationship between circ_0067835 and miR-155, or between miR-155 and GATA3, was investigated via luciferase report assay. Circ_0067835 expression levels were raised in the nasal mucosa tissues of AR mice. Inhibiting circ_0067835 could reduce Type2 cytokines and ILC2s levels in AR mice model. Furthermore, circ_0067835 targeted and positively regulated miR-155 expression, and GATA3 was a downstream target of miR-155 and adjusted by circ_0067835/miR-155 axis. In addition, silencing circ_0067835 inhibited cytokines and ILC2s levels by down-regulating miR-155. Circ_0067835 effectively inhibited AR response in ILC2s through participation of miR-155/GATA3 axis.

Yu X, Wang M, Zhao H, Cao Z. Targeting a novel hsa_circ_0000520/miR-556-5p/NLRP3 pathway-mediated cell pyroptosis and inflammation attenuates ovalbumin (OVA)-induced allergic rhinitis (AR) in mice models. Inflamm Res 2021; 70:719-729. [PMID: 34028600 DOI: 10.1007/s00011-021-01472-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2021] [Revised: 05/09/2021] [Accepted: 05/11/2021] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The circRNAs-miRNAs-mRNAs competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) networks involve in regulating the development of various inflammation-associated diseases, including allergic rhinitis (AR), and the present study aimed to identify novel AR-associated ceRNA networks. METHODS The mRNA and protein levels of the associated genes were, respectively, examined by real-time qPCR and western blot analysis. The targeting sites in miR-556-5p and NLRP3 were validated by performing dual-luciferase reporter gene system assay. ELISA was used to measure inflammatory cytokines secretion, and CCK-8 assay was conducted to determine cell proliferation. RESULTS Here, we first identified a hsa_circ_0000520/miR-556-5p/NLRP3 signaling cascade triggered epithelium pyroptosis and inflammation to regulate the development of AR in cellular and mice models. Specifically, the pyroptosis-associated biomarkers (NLRP3, ASC, IL-1β and IL-18) and pro-inflammatory cytokines (OVA-specific IgE, TNF-α, IL-4 and IL-5) were upregulated in the nasal subjects collected from AR patients and ovalbumin (OVA)-induced AR mice models, compared to their normal counterparts. Next, using the ceRNA networks analysis software, we screened out a hsa_circ_0000520/miR-556-5p axis that potentially regulated NLRP3 in the human nasal epithelial cell line. Mechanistically, miR-556-5p targeted both hsa_circ_0000520 and 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) of NLRP3, and knock-down of hsa_circ_0000520 inactivated NLRP3-mediated epithelium pyroptosis through miR-556-5p in a ceRNA-dependent manner. Furthermore, we proved that both hsa_circ_0000520 ablation and miR-556-5p overexpression suppressed NLRP3-mediated cell pyroptosis to attenuate AR in mice models. CONCLUSIONS Taken together, we evidenced that targeting the hsa_circ_0000520/miR-556-5p/NLRP3 signaling pathway was a novel AQ1strategy to ameliorate AR progression; however, future clinical data are still required to validate our preliminary results.

Abstract
Allergic rhinitis (AR) is one of the most common chronic diseases. This study examined whether microRNA (miR)-182-5p plays a role in AR by regulating toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). First, data demonstrated that TLR4 was a target of miR-182-5p. Subsequently, AR mouse model was established to explore the role of miR-182-5p and TLR4 in AR in vivo. Initially, quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis indicated that miR-182-5p was downregulated, while TLR4 expression was upregulated in AR mice. Then we found that miR-182-5p mimic reduced the frequency of sneezing and nose rubbing of the AR mice. In addition, miR-182-5p mimic significantly increased ovalbumin (OVA)-specific IgE and leukotriene C4 expression levels in nasal lavage fluid (NLF) and serum of AR mice. miR-182-5p mimic decreased the number of inflammatory cells in NLF of AR mice. It also reduced the levels of inflammatory factors in the serum of AR mice, such as interleukin (IL)-4, IL-5, IL-13, IL-17 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, while increasing the release of IFN-γ and IL-2. Finally, miR-182-5p mimic inhibited NF-κB signaling pathway activation in AR mice. However, all effects of miR-182-5p mimic on AR mice were reversed by TLR4-plasmid. In conclusion, miR-182-5p/TLR4 axis may represent a novel therapeutic target for AR.

Abstract
RNA transcripts that not undergo translation into polypeptides recently came into focus of research. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), microRNAs (miRNAs) and circular RNAs (circRNAs) comprise the most important groups of these transcripts. LncRNAs have a length over 200 nucleotides and like mRNAs, have regulated transcription in a tissue specific manner. Biogenesis and function of lncRNAs is related to cell differentiation, response to stimuli and regulation of immune responses. LncRNAs can interact with both miRNAs and mRNAs. MiRNAs are characterized by a length of 22-24 nucleotides. MiRNAs regulate expression of genes at the post-transcriptional level. LncRNAs together with miRNAs are considered as regulators of the immune system. Alterations in their biogenesis is an important mechanism in the development immune related disorders. CircRNAs are products of aberrant maturation of protein-coding transcripts in a process of back-splicing, in which a single strand RNA molecule attains a closed circle shape. Despite a low expression, some circRNA were found to titrate miRNAs and interfere with maturation of legitimate protein-coding transcripts. We summarize the current knowledge on the role of non-coding transcripts in allergic disorders: asthma, atopic dermatitis, allergic rhinitis and urticaria. The reviewed data suggest lncRNA and miRNAs as therapeutic targets and biomarkers of allergic disorders.

Abstract
The tumor microenvironment (TME) is the primary arena where tumor cells and the host immune system interact. Bidirectional communication between tumor cells and the associated stromal cell types within the TME influences disease initiation and progression, as well as tumor immunity. Macrophages and natural killer (NK) cells are crucial components of the stromal compartment and display either pro- or anti-tumor properties, depending on the expression of key regulators. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are emerging as such regulators. They affect several immune cell functions closely related to tumor evasion of the immune system. This review discusses the role of miRNAs in the differentiation, maturation, and activation of immune cells as well as tumor immunity, focusing particularly on macrophages and NK cells.
