Abstract
The long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), NEAT1, has emerged as a central figure in the intricate network of molecular regulators in inflammatory infectious diseases (IIDs). The review initiates a comprehensive exploration of NEAT1's multifaceted roles and molecular interactions in the context of these complex diseases. The study begins by acknowledging the global health burden of IIDs, underscoring the urgency for innovative insights into their pathogenesis and therapeutic avenues. NEAT1 is introduced as a pivotal lncRNA with growing relevance in immune responses and inflammatory processes. The core of this review unravels the NEAT1 landscape, elucidating its involvement in the modulation of immune signalling pathways, regulation of inflammatory cytokines, and interactions with various immune cells during infection. It explores NEAT1's role in orchestrating immune responses and balancing host defence mechanisms with the risk of immunopathology. Furthermore, the review underscores the clinical significance of NEAT1 in infectious diseases, discussing its associations with disease severity, prognosis, and potential as a diagnostic and therapeutic target. It provides insights into ongoing research endeavours aimed at harnessing NEAT1 for innovative disease management strategies, including developing RNA-based therapeutics. Concluding on a forward-looking note, the review highlights the broader implications of NEAT1 in the context of emerging infectious diseases and the possibility for precision medicine approaches that leverage NEAT1's regulatory capacities. In summary, this review illuminates the pivotal role of NEAT1 in IIDs by navigating its complex landscape, offering profound insights into its implications for disease pathogenesis and the development of targeted therapies.

[PMID: 37991531 DOI: 10.1007/s10142-023-01268-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2023] [Revised: 11/02/2023] [Accepted: 11/07/2023] [Indexed: 11/23/2023]
Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is mainly characterized by chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) with multiple brain injuries. Nucleotide oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is considered the most important factor inducing and maintaining inflammation. However, the role of NLRP3 and its underlying mechanism in CIH-elicited neuroinflammation remains unclear. We constructed an OSA-related CIH in vivo model and assessed the rats' cognitive behavior in the Morris water maze. The combination of miR-223-3p and NLRP3 was confirmed by the TargetScan database, double luciferase reporter gene experiment, and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) experiment. Western blot and ELISA assay were used to analyze the effects of miR-223-3p targeting NLRP3 on the expression of pyroptotic or inflammatory factors in vivo in CIH rats. Severe cognitive impairment was observed in rats at week 6 post-treatment, with increased inflammatory factors in the blood and hippocampus, heightened NLRP3 expression, and low miR-223-3p levels. And the good binding activity of the two was confirmed by dual luciferase reporter and RIP experiments. Next, we found that silencing NLRP3 or overexpression of miR-223-3p in the CIH model could improve cognitive deficits and reduce the level of proinflammatory factors and pyroptosis factors in rats. Finally, based on silencing NLRP3 or overexpression miR-223-3p, we confirmed that there was a regulatory relationship between miR-223-3p and NLRP3. Our results suggested that the NLRP3/ miR-223-3p axis played a role in attenuating CIH-induced neuroinflammation.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the association between red cell distribution width (RDW) to albumin (ALB) ratio and acute kidney injury (AKI) in sepsis. METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study. Data were collected from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care Database IV (MIMIC-IV) from 2008 to 2019. The incidence of AKI was the primary outcome, which was defined based on the improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO). The association of RDW/ALB ratio with AKI in sepsis was assessed by multivariate logistic regression analysis using relative risk (RR) and a 95% confidence interval (CI). Subgroup group analyses were applied according to age, use of ventilation, and use of vasopressor, SAPS II, and SOFA. RESULTS Of 1810 sepsis patients involved in this study, 563 (31.10%) sepsis patients developed AKI after ICU admission. The results suggested an increase in RDW/ALB was associated with a rise in the risk of AKI in sepsis (RR 1.09, 95% CI 1.02 to 1.16, P = 0.013).Based on the subgroup analysis, RDW/ALB ratio was significantly associated with the risk of AKI in sepsis patients using the treatment of ventilation (RR: 1.07, 95% CI 1.01 to 1.14, P = 0.041)) and in patients with SAPS II < 43 (RR: 1.16, 95% CI 1.04 to 1.29, P = 0.007). CONCLUSION RDW/ALB ratio was independently associated with the risk of AKI in sepsis patients.

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.

Xie KH, Liu XH, Jia J, Zhong X, Han RY, Tan RZ, Wang L. Hederagenin ameliorates cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury via inhibiting long non-coding RNA A330074k22Rik/Axin2/β-catenin signalling pathway. Int Immunopharmacol 2022; 112:109247. [PMID: 36155281 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2022.109247] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2022] [Revised: 08/30/2022] [Accepted: 09/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI), a kidney disease with high morbidity and mortality, is characterized by a dramatic decline in renal function. Hederagenin (HDG), a pentacyclic triterpenoid saponin isolated from astragalus membranaceus, has been shown to have significant anti-inflammatory effects on various diseases. However, the effects of HDG on renal injury and inflammation in AKI has not been elucidated. METHODS In this research, mice model of AKI was established by intraperitoneal injection of cisplatin in vivo, the inflammatory model of renal tubular epithelial cells was established by LPS stimulation in vitro, and HDG was used to intervene in vitro and in vivo models. Transcriptome sequencing was used to analyze the alterations of LncRNA and mRNA expression in AKI model and LncRNA-A330074k22Rik (A33) knockdown cells, respectively. Renal in situ electrotransfer knockdown plasmid was used to establish mice model of AKI with low expression of A33 in kidney. RESULTS The results showed that HDG effectively alleviate cisplatin-induced kidney injury and inflammation in mice. Transcriptome sequencing results showed that multiple LncRNAs in kidney of AKI model exhibited significant changes, among which LncRNA-A33 had the most obvious change trend. Subsequent results showed that A33 was highly expressed in kidney of AKI mice and LPS-induced renal tubular cells. After in situ renal electroporation knockdown plasmid down-regulated A33 in kidney of AKI mice, it was found that inhibition of A33 could significantly relieve cisplatin-induced kidney injury and inflammation of AKI, while HDG could effectively suppress the expression of A33 in vitro and in vivo, respectively. Subsequently, transcriptome sequencing was again used to analyze the changes in mRNA expression of renal tubular cells after A33 knockdown by siRNA. The results showed that a large number of inflammation-related signaling pathways were down-regulated, Axin2 and its downstream β-catenin signal were significantly inhibited. Cell recovery test showed that HDG inhibited Axin2/β-catenin signal by down-regulating A33, and improved kidney injury and inflammation of AKI. CONCLUSION Taken together, HDG significantly ameliorated cisplatin-induced kidney injury through LncRNA-A330074k22Rik/Axin2/β-catenin signal axis, which providing a potential therapeutic approach for the treatment of AKI.
