目的 探讨氧化苦参碱(OM)是否通过胰腺星状细胞株(LTC-14)中miR-211-5p调节TLR4/NF-κB通路调控炎性反应。方法 用生物预测、文献分析筛选出目的miR;脂多糖(LPS)刺激LTC-14细胞制备炎症模型,通过实时荧光定量PCR(qRT-PCR)法检测miR的变化以及OM对其的调节作用;通过转染mimics和inhibitor来过表达和低表达目的miR后,以Western Blotting法、实时荧光定量PCR(qRT-PCR)法检测LTC-14细胞中TLR4/NF-κB信号通路相关分子(TLR4、MyD88、NF-κB)的表达情况,ELISA法检测细胞上清中炎性因子TNF-α的表达情况。结果 经生物信息学预测筛选出的目的miR为miR-211-5p;与对照组比较,LPS刺激LTC-14细胞后miR-211-5p表达明显下降(P<0.001);与模型组比较,经OM干预后miR-211-5p表达显著上升(P<0.001)。过表达miR-211-5p后,TLR4、MyD88、NF-κB的mRNA和蛋白水平,以及炎性因子TNF-α表达显著下降(P<0.05、0.01、0.001);低表达miR-211-5p后,TLR4、MyD88、NF-κB的mRNA和蛋白水平,以及炎性因子TNF-α表达上升(P<0.05、0.01、0.001)。结论 PSCs中的miR-211-5p通过调节TLR4/NF-κB信号通路调节炎症反应,OM可以调节炎症模型中miR-211-5p的表达,OM调节炎症反应的作用机制可能是通过miR-211-5p调节TLR4/NF-κB信号通路实现的。

[Abstract]
Objective To investigate the anti-inflammatory mechanism of oxymatrine (OM) on targeting TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathwayby regulating miRNA-211-5p in LTC-14 cells. Methods The target miRNAs were screened by biological prediction and literature analysis. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulates LTC-14 cells to prepare inflammatory models, and miRNAs expression variation and the regulation of OM were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). Up-regulation and down-expression of miRNAs were manufactured by mimics and inhibitor transfection. The expression of related molecules (TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB) in TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway of LTC-14 cells was detected by Western blotting and RT-qPCR. The expression of inflammatory factor TNF-α was detected by ELISA assay in cell supernatant. Results miRNA-211-5p was chosen as target for further study after bioinformatics screening. The expression of miR-211-5p in LTC-14 cells stimulated by LPS decreased significantly (P<0.001) compared with the control group. The decreased expression of miRNA-211-5p induced by LPS was promoted by OM administration (P<0.001) compared with the model group. After up-regulating of miRNA-211-5p, the expression of TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway related molecules (TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB) and TNF-αdecreased significantly (P<0.05, 0.01, and 0.001). After down-regulation of miRNA-211-5p, the expression of TLR4, MyD88 and NF-κB TNF-α were increased (P<0.05, 0.01, and 0.001). Conclusion OM can modulate TLR4/NF-κB inflammatory response signaling pathway by regulating the expression of miRNA-211-5p in the PSCs.
