Expression of miRNA-9 in brain tissue and its role in promoting cerebral vascular remodeling in rats following traumatic brain injury
To investigate the expression of miRNA-9 in the brain tissue and its protective effect on cerebral microvascular endothelial cells in rats following traumatic brain injury(TBI).
Methods
2
Sixty adult male Sprague Dawley rats were subjected to controlled cortical impact to induce TBI. Quantitative real-time PCR and Western blotting were used to detect the expression of miRNA-9 and CD31 protein in the brain tissues around the injured site at 6 h and 1
3
7
14 and 28 d following the injury.Rat microvascular endothelial cells in primary culture were transfected with a miRNA-9 mimic or an empty plasmid before exposure to etoposide
and CCK-8 assay was used to examine the viability of the cells; Western blotting was used to detect the expressions of Bcl-2
Bax and cl-caspase-3 proteinsin the cells.
Results
2
Compared with the normal rats
the rats with TBI showed significantly increased levels of miRNA-9 in the brain tissue
which reached the peak level on day 14 following TBI (
P
<
0.01);the expression of the endothelial cell marker CD31 protein remained elevated from day 3 to the day 28 after the injury (
P
<
0.05). In cultured primary rat microvascular endothelial cells
the expression of miRNA-9 was decreased significantly following the exposure to etoposide(
P
<
0.01)
and was increased significantly after transfection with the miRNA-9 mimic (
P
<
0.01); the transfection obviously promoted the cell viability following etoposide exposure as compared to the non-transfected cells (
P
<
0.01). Western blotting showed that compared with those in the non-transfected cells
the expression of Bcl-2 and the Bcl-2/Bax ratio were increased obviously and Bax and activated caspase 3 were decreased significantly in the cells transfected with the miRNA-9 mimic following etoposide exposure(
P
<
0.05).
Conclusion
2
The expression of miRNA-9 is increased after traumatic brain injury in rats
and miRNA-9 overexpression can improve the viability of the microvascular endothelial cells with etoposide-induced injury.
