Ma Z, Niu H, Qi H, Li Y. Functional role of lncRNA MEG3 on pyroptosis through interacting with EZH2 and YTHDC1 in postoperative cognitive dysfunction. Brain Res Bull 2024; 217:111060. [PMID: 39236791 DOI: 10.1016/j.brainresbull.2024.111060] [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: 02/29/2024] [Revised: 08/15/2024] [Accepted: 08/26/2024] [Indexed: 09/07/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The molecular biology mechanisms underlying postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) remain unclear, resulting in a lack of specific therapeutic targets and limited clinical treatment options. The NLRP3 pyroptotic pathway, induced by neuroinflammation, is known to promote the development of POCD. Research has shown that lncRNA MEG3 exacerbates cell pyroptosis in various neurological injuries, though the precise mechanism remains to be investigated. METHODS In vitro and in vivo models of POCD were established through treatment with sevoflurane. Gene and protein expression were investigated using qRT-PCR, Western blot analysis, ELISA, and histological staining. Additionally, cell viability and injury were assessed through CCK-8 and LDH assays. Hippocampal-dependent memory and cognitive abilities were evaluated using the Morris Water Maze (MWM) test. Furthermore, the interactions between MEG3 and EZH2/YTHDC1 were validated through RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP). RESULTS Our findings reveal that sevoflurane significantly reduced MEG3 and pyroptosis-related proteins in mice. The overexpression of MEG3 protected mice against sevoflurane-induced cognitive dysfunction and reversed sevoflurane-induced pyroptosis in hippocampal neurons. MEG3 induced the downregulation of NLRP3 expression and reduced mRNA stability through its interaction with EZH2/YTHDC1. CONCLUSION In conclusion, our study elucidates that MEG3 inhibits the NLRP3 inflammasome and hippocampal neuron pyroptosis through the recruitment of EZH2/YTHDC1. These findings shed light on the underlying mechanism of MEG3 in the regulation of POCD and suggest that MEG3 could serve as a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of POCD.

Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2024; 736:150492. [PMID: 39116679 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2024.150492] [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: 06/10/2024] [Revised: 07/15/2024] [Accepted: 08/01/2024] [Indexed: 08/10/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The risk of developing dementia is higher in individuals who suffer from perioperative neurocognitive disorder (PND), including postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) and delirium. Recent studies have indicated correlations between anesthesia, surgery and PND. Acute metabolic changes induced by anesthesia and surgery may be related to cognitive impairments. Despite a paucity of research on acute metabolic changes in the hippocampus during surgery, there are conflicting about specific metabolites. METHODS We developed a mouse model of cognitive impairment induced by isoflurane anesthesia and unilateral nephrectomy. Cognition was evaluated by Y maze and fear conditioning test (FCT). The hippocampus was harvested after the surgery. LC-MS (liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry) was performed. The differential metabolites involved in lipid, amino acid, nucleotide, carbohydrate metabolism were analyzed. RESULTS Anesthesia and surgery exposure induced cognition decline. A total of 49 metabolites were significantly up-regulated and 122 down-regulated. The Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway of the metabolites identified purine, glutathione, nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism. Metabolites involved in lipid, amino acid, nucleotide, carbohydrate metabolism were identified including nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), 1-Methylnicotinamide, propionic acid, histidine, adenosine, and guanosine cyclic monophosphate. Some metabolites exhibited a consistent change trend in the hippocampus of aging mice. CONCLUSIONS The study indicates that anesthesia and surgery can induce acute alterations in hippocampal metabolomics, including metabolites involved in lipid, amino acid, nucleotide, and carbohydrate metabolism. These metabolites may play a role in modulating PND through the regulation of neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability.

Fish oil omega-3 Fatty Acids Alleviate Postoperative delirium-like Behavior in aged mice by Attenuating Neuroinflammation and Oxidative Stress. Neurochem Res 2024; 49:157-169.

Abstract
Postoperative delirium (POD) is a common and serious neuropsychiatric syndrome among older patients, and lacks effective therapies. Omega-3 fatty acids, possessing anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, have shown potent neuroprotective effects in several diseases. The present study investigated whether omega-3 fatty acids could exert a neuroprotective role against POD in aged mice. A mouse model of POD was established to explore the role of omega-3 fatty acids in laparotomy-induced delirium-like behavior by evaluating systemic inflammatory changes, neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and behavior at different time points in aged mice. Oral gavage with omega-3 fatty acids (300 mg/kg) for 3 weeks before surgery significantly attenuated anesthesia/surgery-induced POD-like behavior and the accumulation of proinflammatory cytokines from the peripheral blood in aged mice. Moreover, it also remarkably mitigated neuroinflammation and the oxidative stress response (malondialdehyde [MDA] and superoxide dismutase [SOD]) in the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus of surgical mice. Our findings provided evidence that pretreatment with omega-3 fatty acids may play a vital role in the treatment of POD through mechanisms involving its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, which may be a promising prevention strategy for POD in aged patients.

Abstract
The proportion of advanced age patients undergoing surgical procedures is on the rise owing to advancements in surgical and anesthesia technologies as well as an overall aging population. As a complication of anesthesia and surgery, older patients frequently suffer from postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD), which may persist for weeks, months or even longer. POCD is a complex pathological process involving multiple pathogenic factors, and its mechanism is yet unclear. Potential theories include inflammation, deposition of pathogenic proteins, imbalance of neurotransmitters, and chronic stress. The identification, prevention, and treatment of POCD are still in the exploratory stages owing to the absence of standardized diagnostic criteria. Undoubtedly, comprehending the development of POCD remains crucial in overcoming the illness. Neuroinflammation is the leading hypothesis and a crucial component of the pathological network of POCD and may have complex interactions with other mechanisms. In this review, we discuss the possible ways in which surgery and anesthesia cause neuroinflammation and investigate the connection between neuroinflammation and the development of POCD. Understanding these mechanisms may likely ensure that future treatment options of POCD are more effective.

Abstract
Background Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a common complication after anesthesia surgery, especially in older people, that can persist weeks or months after surgery as a short-term impairment of cognitive abilities, or even for a prolonged duration over years, potentially progressing into permanent cognitive dysfunction. However, the pathogenesis of POCD is not fully understood, and therefore an optimal solution for preventing POCD has yet to be established. Some studies have shown that intraoperative ketamine/esketamine reduces the incidence of POCD, but this remains controversial. Objectives We evaluated the effect of intraoperative subanesthetic doses of ketamine/esketamine versus no intervention in adults undergoing general anesthesia surgery on the incidence of POCD. Data Sources We followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines and searched the PubMed, Embase, Ovid, Cochrane, Scopus, and Web of Science databases for the MeSH terms 'ketamine', 'esketamine', and 'Postoperative Cognitive Complications' from database inception to 25 June 2023. Results We found no statistically significant difference in the incidence of POCD within 7 days for intraoperative subanesthetic dose of ketamine/esketamine compared with the control group [relative risk (RR) = 0.57, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.32, 1.01], and the results from the subgroup analysis based on age (>60 years) also revealed that the difference was not statistically significant (RR = 0.49, 95% CI: 0.23, 1.04). Conclusion Compared with controls, intraoperative subanesthetic dose of ketamine/esketamine has no advantage in preventing POCD in patients, or in elderly patients. This study provides reference data for POCD research and clinical drug intervention strategies. Registration Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO; registration number CRD42023401159).

Integration of ATAC-Seq and RNA-Seq identifies key genes and pathways involved in the neuroprotection of S-adenosylmethionine against perioperative neurocognitive disorder. Comput Struct Biotechnol J 2023; 21:1942-1954.

Abstract
The gene-regulatory landscape is highly dynamic in healthy and diseased brains. DNA methylation is a well-known epigenetic modification that regulates gene expression, and our previous study demonstrated that S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), a methylome modulator, was a neuroprotectant against perioperative neurocognitive disorder (PND). However, the underlying mechanism remains to be elucidated. Here, we integrated an assay for transposase-accessible chromatin by sequencing (ATAC-seq) and RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) to identify the key genes and pathways involved in the neuroprotection of SAM against PND. Our RNA-seq data demonstrated that genes involved in biological processes such as Wnt signaling, inflammatory response, transcription and long-term potentiation likely mediate the neuroprotection of SAM. Our ATAC-seq data provided comprehensive maps of chromatin accessibility changes induced by laparotomy and laparotomy + SAM treatment, and functional annotation of the regions with high variations in chromatin accessibility highlighted the role of the Wnt signaling pathway in PND pathogenesis and SAM treatment. Further motif analysis identified key transcription factors (e.g., CTCF, TFDP1, TCFL5, KLF15, ZBTB14, TFAP2E) that may participate in the neuroprotection of SAM. In conclusion, the current study provides an epigenomic perspective to understand the pathogenesis of PND and its treatment by SAM.

Abstract
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is an important barrier separating the central nervous system from the periphery. The composition includes endothelial cells, pericytes, astrocytes, synapses and tight junction proteins. During the perioperative period, anesthesia and surgical operations are also a kind of stress to the body, which may be accompanied by blood-brain barrier damage and brain metabolism dysfunction. Perioperative blood-brain barrier destruction is closely associated with cognitive impairment and may increase the risk of postoperative mortality, which is not conducive to enhanced recovery after surgery. However, the potential pathophysiological process and specific mechanism of blood-brain barrier damage during the perioperative period have not been fully elucidated. Changes in blood-brain barrier permeability, inflammation and neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, ferroptosis, and intestinal dysbiosis may be involved in blood-brain barrier damage. We aim to review the research progress of perioperative blood-brain barrier damage and its potential adverse effects and potential molecular mechanisms, and provide ideas for the study of homeostasis maintenance of brain function and precision anesthesia.

Abstract
Lumbar spinal stenosis is a common orthopedic disease in clinical practice at present. Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) refers to the phenomenon of impaired memory. However, whether long noncoding RNA (LncRNA) GAS5 contributes to the mechanism of cognitive function in undergoing lumbar spinal canal decompression remains unknown. Thus, the present study investigated the precise details of LncRNA GAS5 involvement in Postoperative cognitive dysfunction of patients undergoing lumbar spinal canal decompression. Patients undergoing lumbar spinal canal decompression with cognitive function and Normal healthy volunteers were obtained. C57BL/6 mice were maintained with a 2% concentration of sevoflurane in 100% oxygen at a flow rate of 2 L minute-1 for 4 hours. LncRNA GAS5 gene expression were up-regulated in patients undergoing lumbar spinal canal decompression. In mice model, LncRNA GAS5 gene expression also increased. LncRNA GAS5 promoted neuroinflammation in vitro model. LncRNA GAS5 raised cognitive impairment and increased neuroinflammation in mice model. LncRNA GAS5 suppressed miR-137 in vitro model. MiR-137 reduced neuroinflammation in vitro model. MiR-137 suppressed TCF4 protein expression in vitro model. Transcription factor TCF4 activates the expression of bHLH. Taking together, this experiment provide the first experimental and clinical evidence that LncRNA GAS5/miR-137 promoted anesthesia-induced cognitive function to increase inflammatory bodies in patients undergoing lumbar spinal canal decompression, suggesting it may be a biomarker of POCD and a potential therapeutic target for POCD.

Abstract
Postoperative delirium (POD) is a common postoperative complication in elderly patients and seriously affects postoperative recovery. The exact mechanism of POD is still unclear. Therefore, it is necessary to explore the mechanism of POD in transcriptional regulation. At present, circRNAs have been proven to play an important role in a variety of mental health and cognitive disorders, such as Alzheimer’s disease, depression and schizophrenia. To reveal the effect of circRNA on POD, we used microarray to analyze the differential expression profiles of circRNAs in the hippocampus of 12-month-old mice between the tibial fracture and control groups. A total of 1,4236 circRNAs were identified. Compared with the control group, there were 500 circRNAs with increased expression and 187 with decreased expression. The accuracy of the microarray data was further verified by qRT–PCR. Finally, GO enrichment and KEGG pathway analyses indicated that changes in axon orientation, ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis, glutamate synapses, the estrogen signaling pathway, the RAS signaling pathway and other systems may be important potential pathological mechanisms in the progression of POD. In particular, we found that the HOMER1 gene and its transcript mmu_circRNA_26701 are specifically expressed in the glutamate synapse, which may provide new clues and intervention targets for the progression of this refractory disease.

[PMID: 34783294 PMCID: PMC8810152 DOI: 10.1080/21655979.2021.2005927] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2021] [Revised: 11/08/2021] [Accepted: 11/09/2021] [Indexed: 10/27/2022] Open
Abstract
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a normal condition that develops after surgery with anesthesia, leading to deterioration of cognitive functions. However, the mechanism of POCD still remains unknown. To elucidate the POCD molecular mechanism, sevoflurane was employed in the present study to generate neuroinflammation mice model. Sevoflurane treatment caused inflammatory markers IL6, IL-10 and TNF-α high expression in primary hippocampal neurons and blood samples. Long non-coding RNA Gm5106 was found to be increased after being stimulated with sevoflurane. Silencing Gm5106 inhibited neuron inflammation. In the meanwhile, Gm5106 was identified as a direct target of miR-27b-3p that was inhibited by sevoflurane and related to inflammation suppression. In addition, transcription factor (TF) Hoxa5 was validated to activate Gm5106 through two binding motifs in the promoter region after sevoflurane exposure. Furthermore, miR-27b-3p also directly targeted Hoxa5 3'UTR, which affected nuclear Hoxa5 protein served as TF. Hoxa5 protein instead of 3'UTR reduced miR-27b-3p, in which Gm5106 knocking down abrogated this effect. In conclusion, sevoflurane induces neuroinflammation through increasing long non-coding RNA Gm5106, which is transcriptionally activated by Hoxa5 and directly targeted by miR-27-3p. Apart from that, Hoxa5, Gm5106, and miR-27b-3p form a positive feedback loop in sevoflurane stimulation.

Abstract
The central dogma of molecular genetics is defined as encoded genetic information within DNA, transcribed into messenger RNA, which contain the instructions for protein synthesis, thus imparting cellular functionality and ultimately life. This molecular genetic theory has given birth to the field of neuroepigenetics, and it is now well established that epigenetic regulation of gene transcription is critical to the learning and memory process. In this review, we address a potential role for a relatively new player in the field of epigenetic crosstalk - long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs). First, we briefly summarize epigenetic mechanisms in memory formation and examine what little is known about the emerging role of lncRNAs during this process. We then focus discussions on how lncRNAs interact with epigenetic mechanisms to control transcriptional programs under various conditions in the brain, and how this may be applied to regulation of gene expression necessary for memory formation. Next, we explore how epigenetic crosstalk in turn serves to regulate expression of various individual lncRNAs themselves. To highlight the importance of further exploring the role of lncRNA in epigenetic regulation of gene expression, we consider the significant relationship between lncRNA dysregulation and declining memory reserve with aging, Alzheimer's disease, and epilepsy, as well as the promise of novel therapeutic interventions. Finally, we conclude with a discussion of the critical questions that remain to be answered regarding a role for lncRNA in memory.

[PMID: 34455059 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbi.2021.08.230] [Citation(s) in RCA: 37] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2021] [Revised: 08/01/2021] [Accepted: 08/21/2021] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cognitive impairment is a common neurological disease of which NLRP3-related neuroinflammation has been demonstrated to be an essential mediator. Previous studies have indicated that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are critical for the development of neurological disorders. However, the roles and functions of lncRNA 4344 in neuroinflammation during cognitive impairment are unknown and need to be further elucidated. METHODS Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced rat cognitive impairment and rat microglia (RM) cell inflammation models were established in vitro and in vivo. The Morris water maze test was used to evaluate the cognitive behavior of the rats. Gene expression was assessed using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and protein levels using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, or western blot analysis. The targeting relationship between lncRNA 4344, miR-138-5p, and NLRP3 was identified using bioinformatics analysis and a dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. Hematoxylin-Eosin and Nissl stainings, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling, or immunofluorescence staining assays were performed to detect pathological changes, neuronal apoptosis, or positive cells in hippocampal tissues, respectively. RESULTS The expression levels of lncRNA 4344 and NLRP3 were upregulated in the hippocampal tissues of LPS-treated rats and RM cells, and showed a strong positive correlation between each other. LncRNA 4344 overexpression further enhanced the expression of NLRP3 and its downstream genes (caspase-1, IL-1β, and IL-18), as well as neuronal apoptosis in LPS-stimulated RM cells, whereas lncRNA 4344 silencing attenuated the inflammatory injuries. Moreover, miR-138-5p was the direct target of lncRNA 4344 and was downregulated in the RM cell inflammation model. We also found that miR-138-5p directly reduced the expression of NLRP3 and its downstream genes. Subsequently, the results of the animal experiments showed that the lncRNA 4344/miR-138-5p/NLRP3 axis plays an essential role in regulating the cognitive behavior, pathological changes and apoptosis of hippocampal neurons, expression of inflammation-related factors (NLRP3, caspase-1, IL-1β, and IL-18), and microglial activation in LPS-induced cognitive impairment rats. CONCLUSION Our results demonstrated for the first time that lncRNA 4344 regulates NLRP3-related neuroinflammation and cognitive impairment by targeting miR-138-5p, providing a possible target for the treatment of diseases characterized by a cognitive deficit.

Abstract
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a common complication in elderly patients. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) may contribute to neurodegenerative diseases. However, the role of circRNAs in POCD in aged mice has not yet been reported. This study aimed to explore the potential circRNAs in a POCD model. First, a circRNA microarray was used to analyze the expression profiles. Differentially expressed circRNAs were validated using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. A bioinformatics analysis was then used to construct a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network. The database for annotation, visualization, and integrated discovery was used to perform Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis of circRNA-related genes. Moreover, protein-protein interactions were analyzed to predict the circRNA-regulated hub genes using the STRING and molecular complex detection plug-in of Cytoscape. Microarray screen 124 predicted circRNAs in the POCD of aged mice. We found that the up/downregulated circRNAs were involved in multiple signaling pathways. Hub genes, including Egfr and Prkacb, were identified and may be regulated by ceRNA networks. These results suggest that circRNAs are dysexpressed in the hippocampus and may contribute to POCD in aged mice.

Abstract
Preclinical investigations in animal models have consistently demonstrated neurobiological changes and life-long cognitive deficits following exposure to widely used anesthetics early in life. However, the mechanisms by which these exposures affect brain function remain poorly understood, therefore, limiting the efficacy of current diagnostic and therapeutic options in human studies. The human brain exhibits an abundant expression of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs). These biologically active transcripts play critical roles in a diverse array of functions, including epigenetic regulation. Changes in lncRNA expression have been linked with brain development, normal CNS processes, brain injuries, and the development of neurodegenerative diseases, and many lncRNAs are known to have brain-specific expression. Aberrant lncRNA expression has also been implicated in areas of growing importance in anesthesia-related research, including anesthetic-induced developmental neurotoxicity (AIDN), a condition defined by neurological changes occurring in patients repeatedly exposed to anesthesia, and the related condition of perioperative neurocognitive disorder (PND). In this review, we detail recent advances in PND and AIDN research and summarize the evidence supporting roles for lncRNAs in the brain under both normal and pathologic conditions. We also discuss lncRNAs that have been linked with PND and AIDN, and conclude with a discussion of the clinical potential for lncRNAs to serve as diagnostic and therapeutic targets for the prevention of these neurocognitive disorders and the challenges facing the identification and characterization of associated lncRNAs.

Abstract
Postoperative neurocognitive disorder (PND) is one of the most common postoperative neurological complications in aged patients, characterized by mental disorder, anxiety, personality changes, and impaired memory. At present, the molecular mechanism of PND remains largely unclear, and the ideal biomarker for clinical diagnosis and prognosis are lacking. Circular RNA (circRNA) and microRNA (miRNA), as unique non-coding RNAs, affecting the regulation of miRNAs on genes and further intervening in the progression of diseases through the sponge action between the two. Besides, it could be served as novel biomarkers in various diseases. In order to detect the differential expression profiles of genes caused by PND, a total of 26 18-month-old male C57BL/6 mice were randomly assigned to control group and PND group. Behavioral tests showed that mice in the PND group had impaired cognitive function compared with the control group. Three mice in each group were randomly selected to harvest the brain for analysis the expressions of circRNAs, miRNAs, and mRNAs in the prefrontal cortex by next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology. Differentially expressed genes, including 1192 circRNAs, 27 miRNAs, and 266 mRNAs were identified, and its accuracy was further confirmed by qRT-PCR. Bioinformatics analysis results suggested that neuroinflammation was the main pathological mechanism of PND. The construction of competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) networks and the identification of hub genes provided possible therapeutic targets for PND. Cinnarizine and Clemastine were predicted to have the potential therapeutic effects on PND. This is the first study to explore the differential expression profiles of genes and their regulation mechanisms in PND, our results provided new clues and targets for the treatment of this refractory disease.

Abstract
Postoperative recovery for patients (particularly elderly) will be commonly encountered for postoperative neurocognitive disorders. Although effort has been undertaken to better understand and prevent these disorders, little improvement has been observed, due to largely unknown mechanisms. Emerging evidence indicates that noncoding RNAs including microRNA(s), long noncoding RNA(s), and circular RNA(s) are promising biomarkers for diagnosis, prognosis, and novel pathways to reveal mechanisms of postoperative neurocognitive disorders. However, there has been little crosstalk between noncoding RNA biology and development of postoperative neurocognitive disorders. We discuss the major noncoding RNAs in mechanisms, diagnosis, risk-stratification, prognosis, and treatment in postoperative neurocognitive disorders in a novel approach.

Abstract
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a neurological complication of surgery especially common in elderly patients. In this study, we investigated the role of NONMMUT055714 in POCD via regulation of miR-7684-5p. In a POCD mouse model, we induced overexpression of NONMUTT055714 via transfection of lentivrus into the hippocampus, and used the Morris water maze for assessment of cognitive function. Silencing of NONMUTT055714 and miR-7684-5p was induced in primary hippocampal neurons to observe the effects of these regulatory RNAs on cellular processes. Bioinformatics analysis and a double luciferase reporter experiment were performed to further explore the relationship between NONMMUT055714, miR-7684-5p, and SORLA. Cell and animal rescue experiments were performed to verify the ability of miR-7684-5p to reverse the protective effects of NONMMUT055714 overexpression in POCD. We observed that NONMMUT055714 has decreased expression in the POCD mouse model. Overexpression of NONMMUT055714 protected against cognitive impairment of the POCD mouse model in vivo. We identified miR-7684-5p as a NONMMUT055714-related miRNA and in turn as an upstream regulator of SORLA. We found that NONMMUT055714 downregulation is associated with decreased SORLA, increased Aβ and p-tau expression, increased inflammatory biomarkers, increased markers of oxidative stress, and increased neuronal apoptosis in vitro. The effects of NONMMUT055714 downregulation were reversed by silencing miR-7684-5p in vitro and in vivo. Taken together, our findings suggest that NONMMUT055714 is protective against the development of POCD via its function as a ceRNA (or miRNA sponge) in the regulation of miR-7684-5p and SORLA. We therefore propose NONMMUT055714 as a novel target for the investigation and prevention of POCD.

Abstract
Sevoflurane could stimulate neurotoxicity and result in postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD). Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been implicated in the regulation of nervous system disease. This study was performed to investigate role and mechanism of lncRNA Rian (RNA imprinted and accumulated in nucleus) in sevoflurane anesthesia-induced cognitive dysfunction. Mice post-sevoflurane anesthesia showed cognitive impairments and neuronal damage and apoptosis. However, intracerebroventricularly injection with Adenovirus (Ad) for the over-expression of Rian ameliorated sevoflurane-induced neuronal damage and apoptosis. Cognitive impairments induced by sevoflurane were attenuated by injection with Ad-Rian. Moreover, transfection with Ad-Rian also protected isolated primary hippocampal neurons against sevoflurane-induced decrease of cell viability and increase of lactic acid dehydrogenase (LDH) and apoptosis. Mechanistically, Rian bind to miR-143-3p, and decreased expression of LIMK1 (Lim kinase 1) through negative regulation of miR-143-3p. Knockdown of LIMK1 aggravated sevoflurane-induced decrease of cell viability and increase of LDH and apoptosis in neurons, while over-expression attenuated LIMK1 silence-induced neuronal damage post-sevoflurane anesthesia. In conclusion, Rian demonstrated neuroprotective effects against sevoflurane anesthesia-induced cognitive dysfunction through regulation of miR-143-3p/LIMK1 axis, providing promising target for sevoflurane anesthesia-induced cognitive dysfunction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cognitive impairment is a common neurocognitive disorder that affects millions of worldwide people's health,related tofolate deficiency. OBJECTIVE The present study aimed to investigate the lncRNA-mRNA functional networks associated with cognitive impairment in folate-deficient mice and elucidate their possible molecular mechanisms. METHODS We downloaded the gene expression profile (GSE148126) of lncRNAs and mRNAs from NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Four groups of mouse hippocampi were analyzed, including 4 months (4mo) and 18 months (18mo) of folic acid (FA) deficiency/supplementation. The differentially expressed lncRNAs (DElncRNAs) and mRNAs (DEmRNAs) were identified using gplots and heatmap packages. The functions of the DEmRNAs were evaluated using Gene Ontology (GO) and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses. The hub genes wereidentified by CytoHubba plugins of Cytoscape, and protein-protein interaction (PPI) network of deregulated mRNAs was performed using STRING database. Finally, lncRNA-mRNA co-expression and competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network analyses were constructed. RESULTS In total, we screened 67 lncRNAs with 211 mRNAs, and 89 lncRNAs with 229 mRNAs were differentially expressed in 4mo_FAand 18mo_FA deficient mice, respectively. GO analyses indicated that DEmRNAs were highly related to terms involved in binding and biological regulation. KEGG pathway analyses demonstrated that these genes were significantly enriched for Renin secretion, Pancreatic secretion and AMPK signaling pathways in 18mo_FA deficiency group. Subsequently, the top 5 hub genes werescreened from the PPI network, which may be key genes with the progression of folate deficiency. Upon the lncRNA-mRNA co-expression network analysis, we identified the top 10 lncRNAs having the maximum number of connections with related mRNAs. Finally, a ceRNA network was constructed for DE lncRNAs and DEmRNAs, and several pivotal miRNAs were predicted. CONCLUSIONS This study identified the lncRNA-mRNA expression profiles and functional networks associated with cognitive impairment in folate-deficient mice, which provided support for the possible mechanisms and therapy for this disease.

[PMID: 32913509 PMCID: PMC7476152] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2019] [Accepted: 07/21/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
AIMS The present study investigated the function and mechanism of lncRNA Gm43050 in sevoflurane-induced abnormal cognition. METHODS Primary hippocampal neurons were used to establish the model of abnormal cognitive disorder. Overexpression and knockdown experiments were performed to analyze cell death rates, proliferation, apoptosis and the inflammatory response. The dual-luciferase reporter assay was used to analyze the potential binding targets of lncRNA Gm43050. Rescue experiments were used to assess the downstream targets of Gm43050. RESULTS We found that lncRNA Gm43050 was in the cytoplasm. Overexpression of lncRNA Gm43050 had no impact on proliferation but significantly reduced the cell death rates and apoptosis. The inflammation markers IL-6, IL-1β, IL-8 and TNF-α were manifestly downregulated in the overexpression group. Opposite effects were detected in the lncRNA Gm43050 knockdown group. Bioinformatics analysis showed that miR-640 may be the potential target of Gm43050. Additionally, we found that ZFP91 was the downstream target of miR-640. CONCLUSION We provided comprehensive data of the function and mechanism of lncRNA Gm43050 in abnormal cognition. Our study showed that lncRNA Gm43050 exerted its important role via the regulation of miR-640 and ZFP91.

RNA-seq analysis of the key long noncoding RNAs and mRNAs related to cognitive impairment after cardiac arrest and cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Aging (Albany NY) 2020; 12:14490-14505. [PMID: 32693388 PMCID: PMC7425488 DOI: 10.18632/aging.103495] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2019] [Accepted: 05/27/2020] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
Cardiac arrest (CA) is the leading cause of death around the world. Survivors after CA and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) develop moderate to severe cognitive impairment up to 60% at 3 months. Accumulating evidence demonstrated that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) played a pivotal role in ischemic brain injury. This study aimed to identify potential key lncRNAs associated with early cognitive deficits after CA/CPR. LncRNA and mRNA expression profiles of the hippocampus in CA/CPR or sham group were analyzed via high-throughput RNA sequencing, which exhibited 1920 lncRNAs and 1162 mRNAs were differentially expressed. These differentially expressed genes were confirmed to be primarily associated with inflammatory or apoptotic signaling pathways through GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis and coding-noncoding co-expression network analysis. Among which, five key pairs of lncRNA-mRNA were further analyzed by qRT-PCR and western blot. We found that the lncRNANONMMUT113601.1 and mRNA Shc1, an inflammation and apoptosis-associated gene, exhibited the most significant changes in hippocampus of CA/CPR mice. Furthermore, we found that the correlations between this lncRNA and mRNA mainly happened in neurons of hippocampus by in situ hybridization. These results suggested that the critical pairs of lncRNA-mRNA may act as essential regulators in early cognitive deficits after resuscitation.

Identification of the Potential Key Circular RNAs in Elderly Patients With Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction. Front Aging Neurosci 2020; 12:165. [PMID: 32655392 PMCID: PMC7324535 DOI: 10.3389/fnagi.2020.00165] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/18/2019] [Accepted: 05/13/2020] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is one of the severe complications after surgery, inducing low life quality and high mortality, especially in elderly patients. However, the underlying molecular mechanism of POCD remains largely unknown, and the ideal biomarker for clinical diagnosis and prognosis is lacking. Circular RNAs (circRNAs), as a unique class of non-coding RNAs, were characterized by its stability and conservativeness, serving as novel biomarkers in various diseases. Nevertheless, the role of circRNAs in the occurrence of POCD remains elusive. Methods To investigate the differentially expressed circRNAs in the serum of POCD patients and its potential role in the development of POCD, we performed a circRNA microarray to screen the differentially expressed circRNAs in the serum samples from three patients of the POCD group and three paired patients of the non-POCD group. Subsequently, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis (qRT-PCR) was utilized to verify the microarray data with the serum samples from 10 paired patients. Cytoscape software was used to construct the circRNA–miRNA–mRNA network for circRNAs with different expression levels as well as the target genes. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses showed the biological functions of the differentially expressed circRNAs target genes. Results In total, we have analyzed 10,198 circRNAs through the microarray. Compared with the non-POCD patient group, there were 210 differentially expressed circRNAs with 133 upregulated and 77 downregulated in the POCD group (≥2-fold differential expression, P ≤ 0.05). The qRT-PCR confirmed 10 circRNAs with different expressed levels, and the results were consistent with the microarray findings. Among them, hsa_circRNA_001145, hsa_circRNA_101138, and hsa_circRNA_061570 had the highest magnitude of change. The GO analysis showed that the differentially expressed circRNAs were associated with the regulation of the developmental process, cell-to-cell adhesion, and nervous system development. The KEGG analysis showed that the target genes of circRNAs were enriched in the MAPK signaling pathway and RAS signaling pathway. According to the targetscan7.1 and mirdbV5 databases, the circRNA–miRNA–mRNA network was constructed, and these results provided a vital landscape of circRNA expression profile in POCD. Conclusions Our study provides an essential perspective for the differential expression of circRNAs in POCD patients. Further studies need to be performed to explore their potential therapeutic roles in the development of POCD.
