Abstract
Our previous research indicated that Sodium houttuyfonate (SH) can effectively ameliorate dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis exacerbated by Candida albicans. However, the underlying protective mechanism of SH remains unclear. Therefore, in this study, a mice colitis model was infected with C. albicans, and the total colonic miRNAs were assessed. Furthermore, the differentially expressed miRNAs were enriched, clustered, and analyzed. Moreover, based on the dual luciferase analysis of NFKBIZ modulation by miR-32-5p, the in vitro and in vivo therapeutic effects of SH on inflammatory response, fungal burden, oxidative stress, and apoptosis were assessed at transcriptional and translational levels in the presence of agonist and antagonist. A total of 1157 miRNAs were identified, 84 of which were differentially expressed. Furthermore, qRT-PCR validated that SH treatment improved 17 differentially expressed miRNAs with > fourfold upregulation or > sixfold downregulation. Similar to most differentially altered miRNA, C. albicans significantly increased Dectin-1, NF-κB, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-17A, and decreased miR-32-5p which negatively targeted NFKBIZ. In addition, SH treatment reduced inflammatory response and fungal burden in a colitis model with C. albicans infection. Further analyses indicated that in C. albicans infected Caco2 cells, SH inhibited fungal growth, oxidative stress, and apoptosis by increasing Dectin-1, NF-κB, NFKBIZ, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-17A, and decreasing miR-32-5p. Therefore, SH can ameliorate the severity of colitis aggravated by C. albicans via the Dectin-1/NF-κB/miR-32-5p/NFKBIZ axis.

Vet Parasitol 2024; 329:110200. [PMID: 38744230 DOI: 10.1016/j.vetpar.2024.110200] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2024] [Revised: 05/05/2024] [Accepted: 05/08/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024]
Abstract
Histomonas meleagridis, an anaerobic intercellular parasite, is known to infect gallinaceous birds, particularly turkeys and chickens. The resurgence of histomonosis in recent times has resulted in significant financial setbacks due to the prohibition of drugs used for disease treatment. Currently, research on about H. meleagridis primarily concentrate on the examination of its virulence, gene expression analysis, and the innate immunity response of the host organism. However, there is a lack of research on differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMs) related to liver infection induced by H. meleagridis. In this study, the weight gain and pathological changes at various post-infection time points were evaluated through animal experiments to determine the peak and early stages of infection. Next, High-throughput sequencing was used to examine the expression profile of liver miRNA at 10 and 15 days post-infection (DPI) in chickens infected with the Chinese JSYZ-F strain of H. meleagridis. A comparison with uninfected controls revealed the presence of 120 and 118 DEMs in the liver of infected chickens at 10 DPI and 15 DPI, respectively, with 74 DEMs being shared between the two time points. Differentially expressed microRNAs (DEMs) were categorized into three groups based on the time post-infection. The first group (L1) includes 45 miRNAs that were differentially expressed only at 10 DPI and were predicted to target 1646 genes. The second group (L2) includes 43 miRNAs that were differentially expressed only at 15 DPI and were predicted to target 2257 genes. The third group (L3) includes 75 miRNAs that were differentially expressed at both 10 DPI and 15 DPI and were predicted to target 1623 genes. At L1, L2, and L3, there were 89, 87, and 41 significantly enriched Gene Ontology (GO) terms, respectively (p<0.05). The analysis of differentially expressed miRNA target genes using KEGG pathways revealed significant enrichment at L1, L2, and L3, with 3, 4, and 5 pathways identified, respectively (p<0.05). This article suggests that the expression of liver miRNA undergoes dynamic alterations due to H. meleagridis and the host. It showed that the expression pattern of L1 class DEMs was more conducive to regulating the development of the inflammatory response, while the L2 class DEMs were more conducive to augmenting the inflammatory response. The observed patterns of miRNA expression associated with inflammation were in line with the liver's inflammatory process following infection. The results of this study provide a basis for conducting a comprehensive analysis of the pathogenic mechanism of H. meleagridis from the perspective of host miRNAs.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori is a kind of Gram-negative bacteria that parasitizes on human gastric mucosa. Helicobacter pylori infection is very common in human beings, which often causes gastrointestinal diseases, including chronic gastritis, duodenal ulcer and gastric cancer. MicroRNAs are a group of endogenous non-coding single stranded RNAs, which play an important role in cell proliferation, differentiation, autophagy, apoptosis and inflammation. In recent years, relevant studies have found that the expression of microRNA is changed after Helicobacter pylori infection, and then regulate the biological process of host cells. This paper reviews the regulation role of microRNAs on cell biological behavior through different signal pathways after Helicobacter pylori infection.

Abstract
Sepsis is one of the diseases that can cause serious mortality. In E. coli, an inner membrane protein YgiM encoded by gene ygiM can target the eukaryotic peroxisome. Peroxisome is a membrane-enclosed organelle associated with the ROS metabolism and was reported to play the key role in immune responses and inflammation during the development of sepsis. Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) is one of the important pathogens causing sepsis. However, the function of gene vk055_4013 which is highly homologous to ygiM of E. coli has not been demonstrated in K. pneumoniae. In this study, we prepared ΔygiM of K. pneumoniae ATCC43816, and found that the deletion of ygiM did not affect bacterial growth and mouse mortality in the mouse infection model. Interestingly, ΔygiM not only resulted in reduced bacterial resistance to macrophages, but also attenuated pathological manifestations in mouse organs. Furthermore, based on the data of Gene Expression Omnibus, the expression profiles of micro RNAs (miRNAs) and messenger RNAs (mRNAs) in the serum of 44 sepsis patients caused by K. pneumoniae infection were analyzed, and 11 differently expressed miRNAs and 8 DEmRNAs associated with the membrane function were found. Finally, the membrane-associated competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) network was constructed. In this ceRNAs network, DEmiRNAs (hsa-miR-7108-5p, hsa-miR-6780a-5p, hsa-miR-6756-5p, hsa-miR-4433b-3p, hsa-miR-3652, hsa-miR-342-3p, hsa-miR-32-5p) and their potential downstream target DEmRNAs (VNN1, CEACAM8, PGLYRP1) were verified in the cell model infected by wild type and ΔygiM of K. pneumoniae, respectively. Taken together, YgiM may trigger the sepsis caused by K. pneumoniae via membrane-associated ceRNAs. This study provided new insights into the role of YgiM in the process of K. pneumoniae induced sepsis.

Abstract
Nowadays, the relationship between Helicobacter pylori infection (HPI) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) remains controversial. Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between HPI and IBS through a systematic review and meta-analysis based on the current evidence. Methods: We performed a systematic literature search in electronic databases (PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane library) by computer to identify all reports published before 8 August 2021. The odds ratio (OR) and confidence interval (CI) were calculated to evaluate the association between HPI and IBS. Subgroup analyses were conducted for further assessment and exploration of heterogeneity sources. In addition, we assessed publication bias through funnel plots, Egger’s test, and Begg’s test. Finally, we conducted a sensitivity analysis to evaluate the robustness of the results. Results: Thirteen studies with 13,173 participants were included in the meta-analysis. The pooled OR of the association between HPI and IBS was 1.03 (95% CI [0.80,1.31]; p = 0.84). The adjusted OR of the association between HPI and IBS after excluding the studies with confounding factors defined by our team was 1.29 (95% CI [1.03,1.62]; p = 0.03). We found a positive association between HPI and IBS-D (diarrhea subtype) (OR: 1.54; 95% CI [1.22,1.95]; p = 0.0003). The OR of the relationship between cytotoxin-associated gene A (Cag A) positive HPI and IBS was 4.3 (95% CI [0.51,36.17]; p = 0.18). Conclusions: The likelihood of HPI in IBS patients is relatively higher than that of non-IBS participants but not statistically significant, implying that HPI is not significantly associated with IBS, albeit we may underestimate this association. Moreover, we found a positive association between HPI and IBS-D. We also observed an increased likelihood of Cag-A positive HPI in IBS patients than that of non-IBS participants but not statistically significant.

Abstract
BACKGROUND MicroRNA molecules, among them the intensely studied miRNA-155 (miR-155), are regarded as potential biomarkers of chronic gastric inflammation and premalignant lesion progression. However, literature data are scarce in terms of pediatric studies and in the evaluation of the predictive role of miRNA in early gastric inflammation. This study aims to assess the differential expression of miR-155 in relation to pediatric gastritis. METHODS The present research was conducted on 192 patients with chronic dyspeptic symptoms who underwent upper digestive endoscopy. Bioptic samples were harvested for histopathological analysis and tissue miR-155 depiction. MiR-155 expression analysis was carried out through quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The study population was divided into two groups: controls (93 patients) and study group (99 patients) with inflammatory modifications. RESULTS MiR-155 expression was augmented in patients with gastritis but did not differ significantly from controls (p = 0.16). An increase in miR-155 expression was noted in relation to chronic gastritis, H. pylori infection, or increase in gastritis severity, but these variations were not important (p = 0.30, p = 0.44, and p = 0.45, respectively). CONCLUSIONS According to our study, pediatric gastritis increases, but does not greatly influence, miR-155 expression. Dynamic evaluation of miR-155 might enlighten its prognostic role in pediatric gastritis.

Wang P, Ke L, Cai C, Dong F. LINC01578 affects the radiation resistance of lung cancer cells through regulating microRNA-216b-5p/TBL1XR1 axis. Bioengineered 2022; 13:10721-10733. [PMID: 35475502 PMCID: PMC9208508 DOI: 10.1080/21655979.2022.2051881] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/18/2021] [Revised: 02/28/2022] [Accepted: 03/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Radiation resistance largely limits the survival of patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). To understand the mechanism underlying radiation resistance, we explored the influence of LINC01578 in radiation-resistant NSCLC cells. LINC01578, miR-216b-5p and Transducin (beta)-like 1 X-linked receptor 1 (TBL1XR1) expression was evaluated in patients with NSCLC, and their correlation with patients' prognosis was examined. Radiation-resistant NSCLC cell line (A549-RR) was induced and treated with oligonucleotide or plasmid transfection, and cell biological functions were captured. The interplay between LINC01578, miR-216b-5p and TBL1XR1 was clarified. NSCLC patients showed high LINC01578 and TBL1XR1 expression, and low miR-216b-5p expression, which was correlated to shorter patients' prognosis, respectively. LINC01578 or TBL1XR1 deficiency or miR-216b-5p elevation suppressed the functional activities of A549-RR cells. LINC01578 suppression elevated miR-216b-5p expression, consequently leading to the down-regulation of TBL1XR1. miR-216b-5p silencing or TBL1XR1 overexpression compromised LINC01578 knockdown's effects on radiation resistance of A549-RR cells. In brief, LINC01578 suppresses miR-216b-5p and enhances TBL1XR1 expression, thus to promote biological functions of radiation-resistant NSCLC cells.

Săsăran MO, Meliț LE, Dobru ED. MicroRNA Modulation of Host Immune Response and Inflammation Triggered by Helicobacter pylori. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22031406. [PMID: 33573346 PMCID: PMC7866828 DOI: 10.3390/ijms22031406] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2021] [Revised: 01/26/2021] [Accepted: 01/26/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) remains the most-researched etiological factor for gastric inflammation and malignancies. Its evolution towards gastric complications is dependent upon host immune response. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) recognize surface and molecular patterns of the bacterium, especially the lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and act upon pathways, which will finally lead to activation of the nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kB), a transcription factor that stimulates release of inflammatory cytokines. MicroRNAs (MiRNAs) finely modulate TLR signaling, but their expression is also modulated by activation of NF-kB-dependent pathways. This review aims to focus upon several of the most researched miRNAs on this subject, with known implications in host immune responses caused by H. pylori, including let-7 family, miRNA-155, miRNA-146, miRNA-125, miRNA-21, and miRNA-221. TLR-LPS interactions and their afferent pathways are regulated by these miRNAs, which can be considered as a bridge, which connects gastric inflammation to pre-neoplastic and malignant lesions. Therefore, they could serve as potential non-invasive biomarkers, capable of discriminating H. pylori infection, as well as its associated complications. Given that data on this matter is limited in children, as well as for as significant number of miRNAs, future research has yet to clarify the exact involvement of these entities in the progression of H. pylori-associated gastric conditions.
