Shin JJ, Park J, Shin HS, Arab I, Suk K, Lee WH. Roles of lncRNAs in NF-κB-Mediated Macrophage Inflammation and Their Implications in the Pathogenesis of Human Diseases. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:2670. [PMID: 38473915 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25052670] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2024] [Revised: 02/20/2024] [Accepted: 02/22/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Over the past century, molecular biology's focus has transitioned from proteins to DNA, and now to RNA. Once considered merely a genetic information carrier, RNA is now recognized as both a vital element in early cellular life and a regulator in complex organisms. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), which are over 200 bases long but do not code for proteins, play roles in gene expression regulation and signal transduction by inducing epigenetic changes or interacting with various proteins and RNAs. These interactions exhibit a range of functions in various cell types, including macrophages. Notably, some macrophage lncRNAs influence the activation of NF-κB, a crucial transcription factor governing immune and inflammatory responses. Macrophage NF-κB is instrumental in the progression of various pathological conditions including sepsis, atherosclerosis, cancer, autoimmune disorders, and hypersensitivity. It orchestrates gene expression related to immune responses, inflammation, cell survival, and proliferation. Consequently, its malfunction is a key contributor to the onset and development of these diseases. This review aims to summarize the function of lncRNAs in regulating NF-κB activity in macrophage activation and inflammation, with a particular emphasis on their relevance to human diseases and their potential as therapeutic targets. The insights gained from studies on macrophage lncRNAs, as discussed in this review, could provide valuable knowledge for the development of treatments for various pathological conditions involving macrophages.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis and numerous other cardiovascular diseases develop in an age-dependent manner. The endothelial cells that line the vessel walls play an important role in the development of atherosclerosis. Non-coding RNA like microRNAs and long non-coding RNAs are known to play an important role in endothelial function and are implicated in the disease progression. Here, we summarize several microRNAs and long non-coding RNAs that are known to have an altered expression with endothelial aging and discuss their role in endothelial cell function and senescence. These processes contribute to aging-induced atherosclerosis development and by targeting the non-coding RNAs controlling endothelial cell function and senescence, atherosclerosis can potentially be attenuated.

Abstract
In recent years, breakthroughs in bioinformatics have been made with the discovery of many functionally significant non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs). The discovery of these ncRNAs has further demonstrated the multi-level characteristics of intracellular gene expression regulation, which plays an important role in assisting diagnosis, guiding clinical drug use and determining prognosis in the treatment process of various diseases. microRNAs (miRNAs), long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs) are the three major types of ncRNAs that interact with each other. Studies have shown that lncRNAs and circRNAs can sponge miRNAs, thereby influencing normal physiological processes and regulating mRNA expression and, thus, the physiological state of cells. This paper summarizes the mechanism of action and research progress of the three ncRNA and seven types of modalities. This summary is intended to provide new ideas for diagnosing and treating diseases and researching and developing new drugs.

Abstract
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA methylation, as a reversible epigenetic modification of mammalian mRNA, holds a critical role in multiple biological processes. m6A modification in Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) has increasingly attracted more attention in recent years, especially in diabetics, with or without metabolic syndrome. We investigated via m6A-sequencing and RNA-sequencing the differentially expressed m6A modification lncRNAs by high glucose and TNF-α induced endothelial cell dysfunction in human umbilical vein endothelial cells. Additionally, gene ontology and kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes analyses were performed to analyze the biological functions and pathways for the target of mRNAs. Lastly, a competing endogenous RNA network was established to further reveal a regulatory relationship between lncRNAs, miRNAs and mRNAs. A total of 754 differentially m6A-methylated lncRNAs were identified, including 168 up-regulated lncRNAs and 266 down-regulated lncRNAs. Then, 119 significantly different lncRNAs were screened out, of which 60 hypermethylated lncRNAs and 59 hypomethylated lncRNAs. Moreover, 122 differentially expressed lncRNAs were filtered, containing 14 up-regulated mRNAs and 18 down-regulated lncRNAs. Gene ontology and kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes analyses analyses revealed these targets were mainly associated with metabolic process, HIF-1 signaling pathway, and other biological processes. The competing endogenous RNA network revealed the regulatory relationship between lncRNAs, miRNAs and mRNAs, providing potential targets for the treatment and prevention of diabetic endothelial cell dysfunction. This comprehensive analysis for lncRNAs m6A modification in high glucose and TNF-α-induced human umbilical vein endothelial cells not only demonstrated the understanding of characteristics of endothelial cell dysfunction, but also provided the new targets for the clinical treatment of diabetes. Private information from individuals will not be published. This systematic review also does not involve endangering participant rights. Ethical approval will not be required. The results may be published in a peer-reviewed journal or disseminated at relevant conferences.

Abstract
The modulation of vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) phenotype during cellular proliferation and migration may represent a potential therapeutic approach for vascular intimal hyperplasia prevention. However, the precise role of this process in VSMC biology and remodeling remains unclear. In the present study, western blotting, PCR, MTT and Transwell assays were used to analyze related protein and mRNA expression, cell viability and cell migration, respectively. It was demonstrated that miR‑92a modulated VSMCs into a synthetic phenotype via the Kruppel‑like factor 4 (KLF4) pathway. Targeting microRNA (miRNA/miR)‑92a in VSMCs using a KLF4 inhibitor suppressed the synthetic phenotype and inhibited VSMC proliferation and migration. To further confirm this finding, the expression levels of miR‑92a were measured in patients undergoing coronary artery intervention. The serum miR‑92a expression levels were significantly higher in patients with in‑stent restenosis (ISR) compared with those in patients without ISR, whereas KLF4 expression was significantly reduced in the non‑ISR group. Bioinformatic analysis and promoter‑luciferase reporter assays were used to examine the regulatory mechanisms underlying KLF4 expression. KLF4 was demonstrated to be transcriptionally upregulated by miR‑92a in VSMCs. miRNA transfection was also performed to regulate the level of miR‑92a expression. miR‑92a overexpression inhibited VSMC proliferation and migration, and also increased the mRNA and protein expression levels of certain differentiated VSMC‑related genes. Finally, miR‑92a inhibition promoted the proliferation and migration of VSMCs, which could be reversed using a KLF4 inhibitor. Collectively, these results indicated that the local delivery of a KLF4 inhibitor may act as a novel therapeutic option for the prevention of ISR.

A novel circulating biomarker lnc-MALAT1 for acute myocardial infarction: Its relationship with disease risk, features, cytokines, and major adverse cardiovascular events. J Clin Lab Anal 2022; 36:e24771.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Long noncoding RNA MALAT1 (lnc-MALAT1) modulates atherosclerotic progression, myocardial ischemia injury, and systematic inflammation, which may be closely involved in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) pathogenesis. Thus, the current study intended to explore the relationship of lnc-MALAT1 to disease risk, features, cytokines, and prognostication in AMI patients. METHODS This multicenter study consecutively enrolled 160 newly diagnosed AMI patients and 50 controls (angina pectoris patients). Their peripheral blood mononuclear cells were obtained to measure lnc-MALAT1 by RT-qPCR. Serum cytokines in AMI patients were detected by ELISA. In addition, AMI patients were followed up for major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) risk evaluation. RESULTS Lnc-MALAT1 was higher in AMI patients than in controls (median: 2.245 vs. 0.996, p = 0.004), and it also presented a good capacity for differentiating AMI patients from controls with an area under the curve of 0.823. Lnc-MALAT1 was positively related to C-reactive protein (p = 0.005), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (p = 0.022), cardiac troponin I (p = 0.021), and infarct size (p = 0.007), but not other biochemical indexes in AMI patients. Meanwhile, lnc-MALAT1 was positively associated with tumor necrosis factor-alpha (p = 0.001), interleukin (IL)-6 (p = 0.031), IL-17A (p = 0.042), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (p = 0.004), and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (p = 0.021) among AMI patients. Importantly, after categorization, lnc-MALAT1 high (vs. low) was related to an elevated MACE accumulation rate (p = 0.035); furthermore, a higher lnc-MALAT1 quartile showed a trend to be linked with an increased MACE accumulation rate (p = 0.092). CONCLUSION Lnc-MALAT1 may serve as a biomarker for AMI risk, infarct size, inflammation and prognosis, but further validation by large-scale studies is needed.

Abstract
Background This paper aimed to analyze IncRNA SOX2-OT expression in patients with carotid atherosclerosis and to elucidate the predictive significance of SOX2-OT on carotid atherosclerosis. Methods The levels of SOX2-OT from 185 participants were tested. The relationship between CIMT levels and SOX2-OT expression was examined by Pearson analysis. The clinical value of SOX2-OT was investigated by the ROC curve, K–M curve, and COX regression analysis. The comparison of SOX2-OT expression between patients with good prognosis and poor prognosis was also performed. Results The expression of SOX2-OT was augmented in the patients with carotid atherosclerosis and was correlated with the level of CIMT. The high level of SOX2-OT might be a risk factor for carotid atherosclerosis. An enhancement of SOX2-OT expression was found in patients with poor prognosis. SOX2-OT might be an independent prognostic biomarker. Conclusions SOX2-OT was upregulated in patients with carotid atherosclerosis and might be a predictive indicator in the progression of carotid atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as essential biomolecules with variable diagnostic and/or prognostic utility in several diseases, including coronary artery disease (CAD). We aimed for the first time to investigate the potential association of five angiogenesis-related lncRNAs (PUNISHER, SENCR, MIAT, MALAT1, and GATA6-AS) variants with CAD susceptibility and/or severity. TaqMan Real-Time genotyping for PUNISHER rs12318065A/C, SENCR rs12420823C/T, MIAT rs1061540C/T, MALAT1 rs3200401T/C, and GATA6-AS1 rs73390820A/G were run on the extracted genomic DNA from 100 unrelated patients with stable CAD undergoing diagnostic coronary angiography and from 100 controls. After adjusting covariates, the studied variants showed no association with disease susceptibility; however, MIAT*T/T genotype was associated with a more severe Gensini score. In contrast, MALAT1*T/C heterozygosity was associated with a lower score. The lipid profile, and to a lesser extent smoking status, male sex, weight, hypertension, and MALAT1 (T > C) (negative correlation), explained the variance between patients/control groups via a principal component analysis. Incorporating the principal components into a logistic regression model to predict CAD yielded a 0.92 AUC. In conclusion: MIAT rs1061540 and MALAT1 rs3200401 variants were associated with CAD severity and Gensini score in the present sample of the Egyptian population. Further large multi-center and functional analyses are needed to confirm the results and identify the underlying molecular mechanisms.

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to observe the potential value and underlying mechanism of the metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1)/miR-143 axis in ISR. A total of 150 participants were enrolled, including 100 patients (observation group) with coronary heart disease who underwent stent implantation in the Department of Cardiology of our hospital between January 2018 and January 2020, and 50 healthy people (control group) concurrently underwent a physical examination. Serum MALAT1 and miR-143 levels were detected by quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α; 10 ng/mL) induced human vascular smooth muscle cells (HVSMCs). MALAT1 increased while miR-143 decreased in the observation group versus the control group (P < 0.001). The non-restenosis group had significantly elevated MALAT1 expression while decreased miR-143 expression than the restenosis group (P < 0.001). The areas under the curves of the expression of MALAT1 and miR-143 in predicting restenosis were 0.917 and 0.881, respectively. Following si-MALAT1 transfection, HVSMC multiplication and invasiveness decreased significantly (P < 0.05). miR-143-inhibitor was observed to upregulate the luciferase activity of MALAT1-WT (P < 0.05). MALAT1 is highly expressed in patients with ISR while miR-143 is decreased, and the MALAT1/miR-143 axis is a potential pathway to modulate the multiplication and invasiveness of HVSMCs.

Abstract
Aim: To investigate correlations of long noncoding RNA metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (lnc-MALAT1) and its target microRNAs with clinical features and restenosis risk in coronary heart disease (CHD) patients post drug-eluting stent-percutaneous coronary intervention (DES-PCI). Materials & methods: A total of 274 CHD patients undergoing DES-PCI were enrolled, pre-operative plasma samples were obtained to detect lnc-MALAT1, miR-125b, miR-146a, miR-203 by RT-qPCR; 2-year restenosis was determined by quantitative coronary angiography. Results: Lnc-MALAT1 negatively correlated with miR-125b, miR-146a and miR-203. Furthermore, lnc-MALAT1, miR-125b, miR-146a and miR-203 correlated with diabetes mellitus, hyperuricemia, lesion properties, cholesterol, inflammation and cardiac function indexes. Additionally, lnc-MALAT1 was increased, while miR-125b and miR-146a were decreased in patients with 2-year restenosis than patients without 2-year restenosis; however, miR-203 did not differ. Conclusion: Lnc-MALAT1 and its target miRNAs might help manage restenosis risk in CHD patients post DES-PCI.
