Abstract
BACKGROUND Perioperative acute kidney injury (AKI) is common in surgical patients and is associated with high morbidity and mortality. There are currently few options for AKI prevention and treatment. Due to its complex pathophysiology, there is no efficient medication therapy to stop the onset of the injury or repair the damage already done. Certain anesthetics, however, have been demonstrated to affect the risk of perioperative AKI in some studies. The impact of anesthetics on renal function is particularly important as it is closely related to the prognosis of patients. Some anesthetics can induce anti-inflammatory, anti-necrotic, and anti-apoptotic effects. Propofol, sevoflurane, and dexmedetomidine are a few examples of anesthetics that have protective association with AKI in the perioperative period. SUMMARY In this study, we reviewed the clinical characteristics, risk factors, and pathogenesis of AKI. Subsequently, the protective effects of various anesthetic agents against perioperative AKI and the latest research are introduced. KEY MESSAGE This work demonstrates that a thorough understanding of the reciprocal effects of anesthetic drugs and AKI is crucial for safe perioperative care and prognosis of patients. However, more complete mechanisms and pathophysiological processes still need to be further studied.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a clinical syndrome where a rapid decrease in kidney function and/or urine output is observed, which may result in the imbalance of water, electrolytes and acid base. It is associated with poor prognosis and prolonged hospitalization. Therefore, an early diagnosis and treatment to avoid the severe AKI stage are important. While several biomarkers, such as urinary L-FABP and NGAL, can be clinically useful, there is still no gold standard for the early detection of AKI and there are limited therapeutic options against AKI. miRNAs are non-coding and single-stranded RNAs that silence their target genes in the post-transcriptional process and are involved in a wide range of biological processes. Recent accumulated evidence has revealed that miRNAs may be potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets for AKI. In this review article, we summarize the current knowledge about miRNAs as promising biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets for AKI, as well as the challenges in their clinical use.

Abstract
Sepsis is a potentially fatal complication of burns and trauma that can cause acute kidney injury (AKI) with substantial morbidity and mortality, but this disease is poorly understood. Despite medical advances, effective therapeutic regimens for septic AKI remain uncommon. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous non-coding RNAs that influence the translation of target messenger RNAs in a variety of biological processes. Emerging evidence has shown that miRNAs are intimately associated with septic AKI. The goal of this review was to summarize recent advances in the profound understanding of the functional role of miRNAs in septic AKI, as well as to provide new insights into miRNAs as feasible biomarkers and therapeutic targets for septic AKI.

Front Physiol 2022; 13:944864.

Abstract
Sepsis contributes to the high prevalence of acute kidney injury (AKI), which mainly occurs in hospitalized patients. The delay in AKI detection is a risk factor for death and chronicity; thus, early diagnosis is essential for initiating proper treatment strategies. Although serum creatinine is used as biomarker, it is increased in plasma serum creatinine only at late stages of AKI. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), a class of noncoding RNAs responsible for gene regulation, can be found in biological fluids within vesicles such as exosomes and may be promising tools for the early detection of AKI. We aimed to identify potential blood miRNAs that can be used as early biomarkers of sepsis-induced AKI in rats. Adult male Wistar rats received a single dose of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The earliest significant increase in serum creatinine was detected 4 h after LPS administration. To evaluate whether miRNAs could act as early biomarkers, blood samples were collected before and 2 h after LPS infusion. Serum NGAL levels were used as a comparative marker. Serum miRNAs were derived from exosomes, and their expression were evaluated by the PCR array. miR-181a-5p and miR-23b-3p showed higher expression in LPS-treated rats than in the control animals (p < 0.05). Bioinformatics analysis showed that both miRNAs target molecules associated with transcription factors that regulate genes related to proinflammatory cytokines. Considering that LPS activates transcription factors that lead to the production of proinflammatory cytokines, possible premature changes in the serum levels of miR-181a-5p and miR-23b-3p may be used to identify sepsis-induced AKI earlier.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression by degrading or repressing the translation of their target messenger RNAs. As miRNAs are critical regulators of cellular homeostasis, their dysregulation is a crucial component of cell and organ injury. A substantial body of evidence indicates that miRNAs are involved in the pathophysiology of acute kidney injury (AKI), chronic kidney disease and allograft damage. Different subsets of miRNAs are dysregulated during AKI, chronic kidney disease and allograft rejection, which could reflect differences in the physiopathology of these conditions. miRNAs that have been investigated in AKI include miR-21, which has an anti-apoptotic role, and miR-214 and miR-668, which regulate mitochondrial dynamics. Various miRNAs are downregulated in diabetic kidney disease, including the miR-30 family and miR-146a, which protect against inflammation and fibrosis. Other miRNAs such as miR-193 and miR-92a induce podocyte dedifferentiation in glomerulonephritis. In transplantation, miRNAs have been implicated in allograft rejection and injury. Further work is needed to identify and validate miRNAs as biomarkers of graft function and of kidney disease development and progression. Use of combinations of miRNAs together with other molecular markers could potentially improve diagnostic or predictive power and facilitate clinical translation. In addition, targeting specific miRNAs at different stages of disease could be a promising therapeutic strategy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiac dysfunction is the most common clinical complication of sepsis. Herein, the study explored the clinical importance of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) HOXA terminal transcript antisense RNA (HOTTIP) in the onset of sepsis and the development of cardiac dysfunction. METHODS 120 patients with sepsis were recruited and divided into cardiac dysfunction group and non-cardiac dysfunction group. Serum HOTTIP levels were measured via RT-qPCR. AC16 cells were treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) for cell experiments and detected for cell viability and apoptosis. RESULTS High serum HOTTIP levels were tested in sepsis patients, which was associated with procalcitonin (PCT) level. Serum HOTTIP can identify sepsis cases from healthy people with the AUC of 0.927. 72 cases developed into cardiac dysfunction, accompanied by elevated levels of HOTTIP. ROC curve displayed the predictive ability of serum HOTTIP in the development of cardiac dysfunction in patients with sepsis. After adjusting for other clinical parameters, HOTTIP can independently affect the development of cardiac dysfunction. In vitro, HOTTIP knockdown promoted the recovery of cell viability and reversed LPS-induced cell apoptosis and excessive interleukin-6 (IL-6) release. CONCLUSION LncRNA HOTTIP is closely related to the condition of patients with sepsis and the development of cardiac dysfunction, possibly owing to its function in LPS-induced myocardial apoptosis and inflammation.

Abstract
Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response caused by a severe infection that leads to multiple organ damage, including acute kidney injury (AKI). In intensive care units (ICU), the morbidity and mortality associated with sepsis-associated AKI (SA-AKI) are gradually increasing due to lack of effective and early detection, as well as proper treatment. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) exert a regulatory function in gene transcription, RNA processing, post-transcriptional translation, and epigenetic regulation of gene expression. Evidence indicated that miRNAs are involved in inflammation and programmed cell death during the development of sepsis-associated AKI (SA-AKI). Moreover, lncRNAs and circRNAs appear to be an essential regulatory mechanism in SA-AKI. In this review, we summarized the molecular mechanism of ncRNAs in SA-AKI and discussed their potential in clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a serious clinical syndrome, and one of the common comorbidities in the perioperative period. AKI can lead to complications in surgical patients and is receiving increasing attention in clinical workup. In recent years, the analysis of perioperative risk factors has become more in-depth and detailed. In this review, the definition, diagnosis, and pathophysiological characteristics of perioperative AKI are reviewed, and the main risk factors for perioperative AKI are analyzed, including advanced age, gender, certain underlying diseases, impaired clinical status such as preoperative creatinine levels, and drugs that may impair renal function such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NASIDs), ACEI/ARB, and some antibiotics. Injectable contrast agents, some anesthetic drugs, specific surgical interventions, anemia, blood transfusions, hyperglycemia, and malnutrition are also highlighted. We also propose potential preventive and curative measures, including the inclusion of renal risk confirmation in the preoperative assessment, minimization of intraoperative renal toxin exposure, intraoperative management and hemodynamic optimization, remote ischemic preadaptation, glycemic control, and nutritional support. Among the management measures, we emphasize the need for careful perioperative clinical examination, timely detection and management of AKI complications, administration of dexmedetomidine for renal protection, and renal replacement therapy. We aim that this review can further increase clinicians' attention to perioperative AKI, early assessment and intervention to try to reduce the risk of AKI.

Abstract
Sepsis is resulted from a systemic inflammatory response to bacterial, viral, or fungal agents. The induced inflammatory response by these microorganisms can lead to multiple organ system failure with devastating consequences. Recent studies have shown altered expressions of several non-coding RNAs such as long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), microRNAs (miRNAs) and circular RNAs (circRNAs) during sepsis. These transcripts have also been found to participate in the pathogenesis of multiple organ system failure through different mechanisms. NEAT1, MALAT1, THRIL, XIST, MIAT and TUG1 are among lncRNAs that participate in the pathoetiology of sepsis-related complications. miR-21, miR-155, miR-15a-5p, miR-494-3p, miR-218, miR-122, miR-208a-5p, miR-328 and miR-218 are examples of miRNAs participating in these complications. Finally, tens of circRNAs such as circC3P1, hsa_circRNA_104484, hsa_circRNA_104670 and circVMA21 and circ-PRKCI have been found to affect pathogenesis of sepsis. In the current review, we describe the role of these three classes of noncoding RNAs in the pathoetiology of sepsis-related complications.

Abstract
Anesthetics have been widely used in surgery and found to suppress inflammatory injury and affect the outcomes of the surgery and diseases. In contrast, anesthetics are also found to induce neuronal injury and inflammation. However, the immune-modulation mechanism of anesthetics is still not clear. Recent studies have shown that the immune-modulation of anesthetics is associated with the regulation of toll-like receptor (TLR)-mediated signaling. Moreover, the regulation of anesthetics in TLR signaling is related to modulations of non-coding RNAs (nc RNAs). Consistently, nc RNAs are mainly divided into micro RNAs (miRs) and long non-coding RNAs (lnc RNAs), which have been found to exert regulatory effects on the immune system. In this review, we summarize the immunomodulatory functions of the widely used anesthetic agents, which are associated with regulation of TLR signaling. In addition, we also focus on the roles of nc RNAs induced by anesthetics in regulations of TLR signaling.

Abstract
Propofol (PPF) is reported to play a protective role in ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, including cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury (CIRI). This study aims to investigate the mechanism by which PPF ameliorates CIRI. Kunming mice were used to establish the middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO)/reperfusion mouse model in vivo. PPF pre-treatment was performed before CIRI. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and creatine phosphokinase (CPK) levels were detected to evaluate the tissue injury. PC12 cells were exposed to hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) to construct the in vitro CIRI model, and PC12 cells were pre-treated with PPF before H/R. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was employed to detect the expression of lncRNA MALAT1 and miR-182-5p. Flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis of PC12 cells. Bioinformatics analysis, qRT-PCR, dual-luciferase reporter gene experiments, and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) experiments were performed to predict and validate the targeting relationship between MALAT1 and miR-182-5p. Western blot was used to detect Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) expression at protein level. PPF pre-treatment remarkably inhibited LDH and CPK levels in the serum of the mice with CIRI, and reduced the apoptosis of PC12 cells exposed to H/R. Besides, PPF pre-treatment markedly suppressed MALAT1 expression in both in vivo and in vitro models and upregulated miR-182-5p expression. MiR-182-5p was validated to be a downstream target gene of MALAT1, and MALAT1 could increase the expression of TLR4 by suppressing miR-182-5p. The effects of PPF on the injury of the mice brain and PC12 cells were partly counteracted by the restoration of MALAT1. PPF protects the brain against I/R-induced injury by regulating MALAT1/miR-182-5p/TLR4 axis.

Abstract
Fibrosis of lung tissue can induce the occurrence and development of numerous types of lung disease. The expression levels of the long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) HOXA distal transcript antisense RNA (HOTTIP) have been reported to be upregulated during the development of fibrosis in liver tissues, which subsequently activated hepatic stellate cells. However, whether the lncRNA HOTTIP participates in the occurrence and development of lung fibrosis remains unknown. The present study aimed to investigate the role of lncRNA HOTTIP in lung fibrosis and its potential mechanism. In the present study, A549 cells were stimulated with TGF-β1 to induce lung fibrosis in vitro. A549 was transfected with short hairpin RNA-HOTTP, overexpression-polypyrimidine tract binding protein 1 (PTBP1), microRNA (miR)-744-5p mimic or miR-744-5p to regulate gene expression. Cell proliferation and migration were determined using 5′-ethynl-2′-deoxyuridine and wound healing assays, respectively. The expression levels of α-smooth muscle actin, collagen I, collagen III and fibronectin 1 were analyzed using western blotting. starBase was used to identify molecules that may interact with the lncRNA HOTTIP and dual luciferase reporter assays were used to validate the findings. Moreover, an in vivo lung fibrosis model was established by bleomycin induction in mice. Histological injury was observed using hematoxylin and eosin and masson staining. The results of the present study revealed that the proliferation and migration of A549 cells were both suppressed following the knockdown of HOTTIP. The lncRNA HOTTIP was found to target and downregulate the expression levels of miR-744-5p. The overexpression of miR-744-5p inhibited the proliferation and migration of A549 cells. Furthermore, miR-744-5p targeted and downregulated the expression levels of PTBP1. It was subsequently demonstrated that the overexpression of PTBP1 rescued miR-744-5p-induced suppression of the proliferation and migration of A549 cells. The knockdown of lncRNA HOTTIP expression also relieved the fibrosis of the lung tissues of mice. In conclusion, the results of the present study suggested that the lncRNA HOTTIP may promote the fibrosis of lung tissues by downregulating the expression levels of miR-744-5p and upregulating the expression levels of PTBP1.

[PMID: 34081253 DOI: 10.1007/s10753-021-01485-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2021] [Revised: 05/11/2021] [Accepted: 05/23/2021] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
Surgery for colorectal cancer (CRC) can cause damage to the intestinal mucosal barrier and lead to bacterial invasion. This study mainly analyzed whether propofol (PPF) could protect the intestinal mucosal barrier damage caused by CRC surgery, and explored its molecular mechanism. A mouse CRC model was constructed using azomethane and dextran sulfate sodium. During anesthesia, continuous intravenous injection of PPF was used for intervention. The influences of PPF on intestinal mucosal permeability and bacterial invasion were detected. The levels of microRNA (miR)-155, Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)/NF-κB in the intestinal mucosa, and the location of miR-155 were detected by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Mouse macrophages were used to analyze the regulation of miR-155 on the secretion of inflammatory cytokines through the TLR4/NF-κB pathway. PPF treatment promoted the expression of tight junction protein in the intestinal mucosa, protected the intestinal barrier, inhibited the translocation of intestinal bacteria, and increased the level of the beneficial bacterium Lactobacillus on the mucosal surface. In addition, PPF treatment could inhibit the expression of miR-155, TLR4/NF-KB, and reverse inflammatory response. miR-155 was expressed in macrophages of intestinal mucosa tissue. Overexpression of miR-155 promoted the nuclear translocation of NF-κB and the expression of inflammatory cytokines in macrophages. The use of VIPER to inhibit TLR4 reversed the pro-inflammatory effects of miR-155. PPF might inhibit the activation of the NF-κB pathway by downregulating miR-155 expression, thereby reducing the secretion of inflammatory cytokines. This might be the mechanism by which PPF protected the intestinal barrier of CRC surgical model mice.

Long non-coding RNA NEAT1 promotes lipopolysaccharide-induced injury in human tubule epithelial cells by regulating miR-93-5p/TXNIP axis. Med Microbiol Immunol 2021; 210:121-132. [PMID: 33885954 DOI: 10.1007/s00430-021-00705-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2020] [Accepted: 04/03/2021] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Many long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been found to play crucial roles in sepsis-induced acute kidney injury (AKI), including lncRNA nuclear-enriched abundant transcript 1 (NEAT1). We aimed to further elucidate the functions and molecular mechanism of NEAT1 in sepsis-induced AKI. Sepsis-induced AKI cell model was established by treatment with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in human tubule epithelial (HK2) cells. Cell viability and apoptosis were determined by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and flow cytometry, respectively. Western blot assay was performed to measure all protein levels. The concentrations of inflammatory factors were evaluated using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The expression levels of inflammatory factors, NEAT1, microRNA-93-5p (miR-93-5p), and thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP) were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The oxidative stress factors were detected using corresponding kits. The interaction between miR-93-5p and NEAT1 or TXNIP was predicted by bioinformatics analysis and verified by dual-luciferase reporter and RNA Immunoprecipitation (RIP) assays. NEAT1 was upregulated in serum of sepsis patients and LPS-induced HK2 cells. NEAT1 silence alleviated LPS-induced HK2 cell injury by inhibiting apoptosis, inflammation and oxidative stress. Moreover, miR-93-5p was a direct target of NEAT1, and suppression of NEAT1 weakened LPS-induced injury by upregulating miR-93-5p in HK2 cells. Furthermore, TXNIP was a downstream target of miR-93-5p, and miR-93-5p attenuated LPS-induced HK2 cell injury by downregulating TXNIP. In addition, NEAT1 regulated TXNIP expression by acting as a sponge of miR-93-5p. NEAT1 might aggravate LPS-induced injury in HK2 cells by regulating miR-93-5p/TXNIP axis, providing a potential therapeutic strategy for sepsis-associated AKI.

MiR-22-3p suppresses sepsis-induced acute kidney injury by targeting PTEN. Biosci Rep 2021; 40:224157. [PMID: 32412059 PMCID: PMC7268257 DOI: 10.1042/bsr20200527] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2020] [Revised: 05/09/2020] [Accepted: 05/11/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Septic acute kidney injury is considered as a severe and frequent complication that occurs during sepsis. The present study was performed to understand the role of miR-22-3p and its underlying mechanism in sepsis-induced acute kidney injury. Methods: Rats were injected with adenovirus carrying miR-22-3p or miR-NC in the caudal vein before cecal ligation. Meanwhile, HK-2 cells were transfected with the above adenovirus following LPS stimulation. We measured the markers of renal injury (blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine (SCR)). Histological changes in kidney tissues were examined by hematoxylin and eosin (H&E), Masson staining, periodic acid Schiff staining and TUNEL staining. The levels of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α and NO were determined by ELISA assay. Using TargetScan prediction and luciferase reporter assay, we predicted and validated the association between PTEN and miR-22-3p. Results: Our data showed that miR-22-3p was significantly down-regulated in a rat model of sepsis-induced acute kidney injury, in vivo and LPS-induced sepsis model in HK-2 cells, in vitro. Overexpression of miR-22-3p remarkably suppressed the inflammatory response and apoptosis via down-regulating HMGB1, p-p65, TLR4 and pro-inflammatory factors (IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α and NO), both in vivo and in vitro. Moreover, PTEN was identified as a target of miR-22-3p. Furthermore, PTEN knockdown augmented, while overexpression reversed the suppressive role of miR-22-3p in LPS-induced inflammatory response. Conclusions: Our results showed that miR-22-3p induced protective role in sepsis-induced acute kidney injury may rely on the repression of PTEN.

Abstract
Background microRNAs (miRNAs) are single-stranded and noncoding RNA molecules that control post-transcriptional gene regulation. miRNAs can be tumor suppressors or oncogenes through various mechanism including cancer cell biology, cell-to-cell communication, and anti-cancer immunity. Main Body Anesthetics can affect cell biology through miRNA-mediated regulation of messenger RNA (mRNA). Indeed, sevoflurane was reported to upregulate miR-203 and suppresses breast cancer cell proliferation. Propofol reduces matrix metalloproteinase expression through its impact on miRNAs, leading to anti-cancer microenvironmental changes. Propofol also modifies miRNA expression profile in circulating extracellular vesicles with their subsequent anti-cancer effects via modulating cell-to-cell communication. Conclusion Inhalational and intravenous anesthetics can alter cancer cell biology through various cellular signaling pathways induced by miRNAs’ modification. However, this area of research is insufficient and further study is needed to figure out optimal anesthesia regimens for cancer patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Propofol, a kind of intravenous sedative drug, is certified that exerts anti-inflammation and antitumor functions. However, the influence of propofol in cerebral injury and the corresponding mechanism remains unexplained, that our article focuses on. METHODS PC12 cells were treated with propofol and exposed in glutamic acid (Glu) solutions. Cell viability, apoptotic potential, apoptosis-related and autophagy-linked proteins were tested via CCK-8, flow cytometry, and western blot assays. Reverse transcription-quantitative real-time PCR was utilized to test miR-19a expression in Glu-stimulated cells. Next, miR-19a mimic transfection was used to assess the effects of miR-19a on cell apoptosis and autophagy in Glu or propofol treated cells. Finally, western blot was performed to test AMPK and mTOR pathways. RESULTS Glu exposure promoted cell apoptosis and autophagy of PC12 cells, while propofol attenuated cell apoptosis and autophagy triggered by Glu. Additionally, propofol decreased the miR-19a expression in Glu-stimulated PC12 cells. Meanwhile, over-expression of miR-19a reversed the effects of propofol on Glu-induced cell apoptosis and autophagy. Moreover, propofol potentiated AMPK and mTOR pathways in Glu-stimulated PC12 cells via impeding miR-19a expression. CONCLUSIONS These finding revealed that propofol relieved Glu-triggered apoptosis and autophagy of PC12, and activated AMPK and mTOR pathways by suppressing miR-19a expression.

Abstract
Background Hypoxia-induced oxidative stress is one of the main mechanisms of myocardial injury, which frequently results in cardiomyocyte death and precipitates life-threatening heart failure. Propofol (2,6-diisopropylphenol), which is used to sedate patients during surgery, was shown to strongly affect the regulation of physiological processes, including hypoxia-induced oxidative stress. However, the exact mechanism is still unclear. Methods Expression of LRPPRC, SLIRP, and Bcl-2 after propofol treatment was measured by RT-qPCR and western blot analyses. The effects of propofol under hypoxia were determine by assessing mitochondrial homeostasis and mitochondrial function, including the ATP level and mitochondrial mass. Autophagy/mitophagy was measured by detecting the presence of LC3B, and autophagosomes were observed by transmission microscopy Results Propofol treatment inhibited cleaved caspase-9 and caspase-3, indicating its inhibitory roles in mitochondrial-related apoptosis. Propofol treatment also transcriptionally activated LRPPRC, a mitochondrial-associated protein that exerts multiple functions by maintaining mitochondrial homeostasis, in a manner dependent on the presence of hypoxia-induced factor (HIF)-1α transcriptional activity in H9C2 and primary rat cardiomyocytes. LRPPRC induced by propofol maintained the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and promoted mitochondrial function, including ATP synthesis and transcriptional activity. Furthermore, LRPPRC induced by propofol contributes, at least partially, to the inhibition of apoptotic cell death induced by hypoxia. Conclusion Taken together, our results indicate that LRPPRC may have a protective antioxidant effect by maintaining mitochondrial homoeostasis induced by propofol and provide new insight into the protective mechanism of propofol against oxidative stress.

Abstract
Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) refers to a sudden loss of renal function. This study was performed to identify the key RNAs acting in the mechanism of sepsis-induced AKI. Methods: Microarray dataset GSE94717 (including six sepsis-induced AKI samples and three control samples) was downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus database. Differentially expressed miRNAs (DE-miRNAs) were identified. The miRNA targets were predicted and enrichment analysis was performed. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) and competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) regulatory networks were constructed. Mouse podocytes were treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS), following by cell viability and PCR analysis. Cellular apoptosis and the ceRNA network were validated. Results: Thirty-one common DE-miRNAs (two up-regulated and 29 down-regulated) by AKI versus control and male AKI versus control were identified. We found the targets of miR-15a-5p, miR-15b-5p, and miR-16-5p were involved in mTOR signaling pathway, and those of miR-29b-3p and miR-16-5p were enriched in PI3K-Akt signaling pathway. RNAs including miR-15b-5p, miR-15a-5p, miR-107, XIST, miR-16-5p, and cullin 3 gene (CUL3) were included in the ceRNA regulatory network. The downregulation of miR-15a-5p and miR-15b-5p and the upregulation of lncRNA XIST and CUL3 gene were validated using qPCR. The miR-15a-5p-XIST-CUL3 regulatory axis was identified and was validated. We confirmed that LPS inhibited the growth of mouse podocytes and seven of the ten miRNAs, but upregulated XIST and CUL3. Transfection analysis showed XIST siRNA enhanced LPS-induced MPC5 cell apoptosis and miR-15a-5p inhibitor reserved it, so did as CUL3 overexpression for miR-15a-5p mimics. Conclusion: The miR-15a-5p-XIST-CUL3 regulatory axis was related to the pathogenesis of sepsis-induced AKI.Highlights Totally, 31 miRNAs were dysregulated between disease and control groups. MiR-15a-5p, miR-15b-5p, and miR-16-5p were involved in mTOR signaling pathway. MiR-16-5p and miR-29b-3p were implicated in PI3K-Akt signaling pathway. The miR-15a-5p-XIST-CUL3 axis was critical for sepsis-induced AKI.

Abstract
This work aims to investigate the function and mechanism of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) cytoskeleton regulator RNA (CYTOR) in myocardial injury induced by sepsis. The sepsis-induced myocardial injury model in mice was established by intraperitoneal injection of LPS (10 mg/kg) in vivo, and cardiomyocyte H9c2 was treated with LPS to mimic sepsis in vitro. CYTOR expression and miR-24 expression were detected by qRT-PCR. After up-regulation or down-regulation of CYTOR and miR-24 expression in the H9c2 cells, and the viability of the cells was detected via MTT assay, and cell apoptosis was detected by TUNEL assay. Western blot was applied to determine the expression level of caspase 3, Bax and X-chromosome-linked inhibitor of apoptosis (XIAP). Interaction between CYTOR and miR-24 was determined by bioinformatics analysis, RT-PCR and dual luciferase reporter assay. Interaction between miR-24 and XIAP was determined through bioinformatics analysis, RT-PCR, western blot and dual luciferase reporter assay. CYTOR was markedly down-regulated. CYTOR interacted with miR-24, and negatively regulated its expression level. Over-expression of CYTOR or transfection of miR-24 inhibitors significantly promoted viability and inhibited apoptosis of H9c2 cells, while the knockdown of CYTOR and transfection of miR-24 mimics had opposite effects. CYTOR suppressed the expression level of apoptosis-related proteins, but miR-24 increased them. miR-24 directly targeted the 3'UTR of XIAP, and suppressed it, and XIAP was modulated indirectly by CYTOR. Down-regulation of CYTOR aggravates sepsis-induced cardiac injury via regulating miR-24 and XIAP.

Int Immunopharmacol 2019; 77:105974.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Propofol has been reported to be protective against liver injury due to its anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative and anti-apoptotic activities. The purpose of this study was to examine the protective effects of propofol on d-galactosamine/lipopolysaccharide (d-GalN/LPS) induced acute liver injury. METHODS Mice were given an intraperitoneal injection of propofol before d-GalN/LPS treatment. Liver injury was confirmed by serum biochemical analysis and liver histopathological analysis. Relevant molecular events were determined by ELISA, western blot, and test kits. Cell apoptosis were evaluated by TUNEL assay. RESULTS The results showed that propofol significantly prevented d-GalN/LPS-induced liver damage by preventing associated increases of serum alanine transaminase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST) and restoring liver histopathological changes. Propofol markedly inhibited the production of inflammatory cytokines and oxidative stress-related factors. Propofol markedly reduced hepatocyte apoptosis, decreased Bax, Bad, cleaved caspase-3 and increased Bcl-2 expression. Besides, NLRP3 inflammasome and TLR4/NF-κB pathway were inactivated under the treatment of propofol according to the expression of pathways-related proteins. CONCLUSION Taken together, propofol contributed to liver protection against d-GalN/LPS-induced liver injury in mice by inhibiting inflammation, oxidative stress and hepatocyte apoptosis through regulating TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 pathway.

Abstract
The cardioprotective effects of volatile anesthetics versus total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) are controversial, especially in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery. Using current generation high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn), we aimed to evaluate the effect of anesthetics on the occurrence of myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery (MINS). From February 2010 to December 2016, 3555 patients without preoperative hs-cTn elevation underwent non-cardiac surgery under general anesthesia. Patients were grouped according to anesthetic agent; 659 patients were classified into a propofol-remifentanil total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) group, and 2896 patients were classified into a volatile group. To balance the use of remifentanil between groups, a balanced group (n = 1622) was generated with patients who received remifentanil infusion in the volatile group, and two separate comparisons were performed (TIVA vs. volatile and TIVA vs. balanced). The primary outcome was occurrence of MINS, defined as rise of hs-cTn I ≥ 0.04 ng/mL within postoperative 48 hours. The secondary outcomes were 30-day mortality, postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI), and adverse events during hospital stay (mortality, type I myocardial infarction (MI), and new-onset arrhythmia). In propensity-matched analyses, the occurrence of MINS was lower in the TIVA group compared to the volatile group (OR 0.642; 95% CI 0.450–0.914; p = 0.014). However, after balancing the use of remifentanil, there was no difference between groups in the risk of MINS (OR 0.832; 95% CI 0.554–1.251; p-value = 0.377). There were no significant associations between the two groups in type 1 MI, new-onset atrial fibrillation, in-hospital and 30-day mortality before and after balancing the use of remifentanil. However, the incidence of postoperative AKI was lower in the TIVA group (OR 0.362; 95% CI 0.194–0.675; p-value = 0.001). After balancing the use of remifentanil, volatile anesthesia and TIVA showed comparable effects on MINS in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery without preoperative myocardial injury. Further studies are needed on the benefit of remifentanil infusion.
