Abstract
Objective Long non-coding RNA plays an important role in osteogenic differentiation. Nuclear enriched abundant transcript 1 (NEAT1) has been revealed to promote osteogenic differentiation in human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs), but the underlying regulatory mechanism remains unknown in acute suppurative osteomyelitis of children. Methods Osteogenic medium (OM) was used to induce osteogenic differentiation. Quantitative real-time PCR and Western blotting were used to evaluate gene expression. The effects of NEAT1, microRNA 339-5p (miR-339-5p), and salmonella pathogenicity island 1 (SPI1) on osteogenic differentiation were assessed in vitro using alizarin red S staining assays and alkaline phosphatase activity. Interactions between NEAT1, miR-339-5p, and SPI1 were identified using immunoprecipitation, luciferase reporter assays, and chromatin immunoprecipitation. Results During osteogenic differentiation, expression of NEAT1 was up-regulated in hBMSCs, and miR-339-5p level was down during osteogenic differentiation. Knockdown of NEAT1 reduced the osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs, and down-regulation of miR-339-5p may counteract the effect of NEAT1 silencing. SPI1 was a target of miR-339-5p by luciferase reporter assay and was also a transcription factor of NEAT1 by chromatin immunoprecipitation. A positive NEAT1-miR-339-5p-SPI1 feedback loop was found to be present during osteogenic differentiation in hBMSCs. Conclusion It was the first study to reveal that the NEAT1-miR-339-5p-SPI1 feedback loop can promote osteogenic differentiation in hBMSCs and shed a new light on the role of NEAT1 during osteogenic differentiation.

Liu L, Yu Z, Ma Q, Yu J, Gong Z, Deng G, Wu X. LncRNA NR_003508 Suppresses Mycobacterium tuberculosis-Induced Programmed Necrosis via Sponging miR-346-3p to Regulate RIPK1. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24098016. [PMID: 37175724 PMCID: PMC10179217 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24098016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2023] [Revised: 04/25/2023] [Accepted: 04/26/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Emerging evidence suggests that long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) are involved in Mtb-induced programmed necrosis. Among these LncRNAs, LncRNA NR_003508 is associated with LPS-induced acute respiratory distress syndrome. However, whether LncRNA NR_003508 contributes to Mtb-induced programmed necrosis remains undocumented. Firstly, the expression of LncRNA NR_003508 was determined using RT-qPCR and FISH. The protein expression of RIPK1, p-RIPK1, RIPK3, p-RIPK3, MLKL, and p-MLKL was measured by Western blot in RAW264.7 and mouse lung tissues. Furthermore, luciferase reporter assays and bioinformatics were used to predict specific miRNA (miR-346-3p) and mRNA (RIPK1) regulated by LncRNA NR_003508. In addition, RT-qPCR was used to detect the RIPK1 expression in TB patients and healthy peripheral blood. The flow cytometry assay was performed to detect cell necrosis rates. Here we show that BCG infection-induced cell necrosis and increased LncRNA NR_003508 expression. si-NR_003508 inhibited BCG/H37Rv-induced programmed necrosis in vitro or in vivo. Functionally, LncRNA NR_003508 has been verified as a ceRNA for absorbing miR-346-3p, which targets RIPK1. Moreover, RIPK1 expression was elevated in the peripheral blood of TB patients compared with healthy people. Knockdown of LncRNA NR_003508 or miR-346-3p overexpression suppresses cell necrosis rate and ROS accumulation in RAW264.7 cells. In conclusion, LncRNA NR_003508 functions as a positive regulator of Mtb-induced programmed necrosis via sponging miR-346-3p to regulate RIPK1. Our findings may provide a promising therapeutic target for tuberculosis.

Abstract
Pyroptosis is a novel form of programmed cell death (PCD), which is characterized by DNA fragmentation, chromatin condensation, cell swelling and leakage of cell contents. The process of pyroptosis is performed by certain inflammasome and executor gasdermin family member. Previous researches have manifested that pyroptosis is closely related to human diseases (such as inflammatory diseases) and malignant tumors, while the regulation mechanism of pyroptosis is not yet clear. Non-coding RNA (ncRNA) such as microRNA (miRNA), long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) and circular RNA (circRNA) have been widely identified in the genome of eukaryotes and played a paramount role in the development of cell function and fate after transcription. Accumulating evidences support the importance of ncRNA biology in the hallmarks of pyroptosis. However, the associations between ncRNA and pyroptosis are rarely reviewed. In this review, we are trying to summarize the regulation and function of ncRNA in cell pyroptosis, which provides a new research direction and ideas for the study of pyroptosis in different diseases.

lncRNA FGD5-AS1 Regulates Bone Marrow Stem Cell Proliferation and Apoptosis by Affecting miR-296-5p/STAT3 Axis in Steroid-Induced Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head. JOURNAL OF HEALTHCARE ENGINEERING 2022; 2022:9364467. [PMID: 35190765 PMCID: PMC8858055 DOI: 10.1155/2022/9364467] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/24/2021] [Revised: 01/12/2022] [Accepted: 01/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
Background Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a common hip joint disease, which is more harmful and seriously affects the lives of patients. This study aims to clarify the regulatory mechanism of lncRNA FGD5-AS1 in ONFH. Methods The expression of the protein and mRNA was detected by RT-qPCR and Western blot assay. The regulatory mechanism of lncRNA FGD5-AS1 was detected by the dual-luciferase reporter assay, CCK-8 assay, and flow cytometry assay. Results Dex can inhibit cell proliferation and differentiation and induce apoptosis in hBMSCs in a dose-dependent manner. Overexpression of lncRNA FGD5-AS1 promoted cell proliferation and restrained apoptosis in Dex-treated hBMSCs. In addition, lncRNA FGD5-AS1 acts as a sponge for miR-296-5p. Also, miR-296-5p directly targets STAT3. More importantly, miR-296-5p and STAT3 can affect the function of lncRNA FGD5-AS1 in Dex-treated hBMSCs. Conclusion lncRNA FGD5-AS1 promotes cell proliferation and inhibits apoptosis in steroid-induced ONFH through acting as a sponge for miR-296-5p and upregulation of STAT3.
