Role of long non-coding RNA RP11-288L9.1 in systemic lupus erythematosus and underlying mechanism
To investigate the role of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) RP11-288L9.1 in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and its potential mechanism.
Methods
2
Transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) was used to screen the differentially expressed lncRNAs in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of SLE patients
and the expression levels of these lncRNAs in 8 pairs of SLE patients and healthy controls were further verified by qRT-PCR. The knockdown as well as over-expression models of RP11-288L9.1 were constructed respectively by transfecting recombinant lentivirus into macrophages
and the transfection efficiency was determined subsequently. The subcellular distribution of RP11-288L9.1 was detected by fluorescence
in situ
hybridization (FISH) technique. Moreover
CCK-8 assay and Annexin V-FITC apoptosis detection kit were applied to examine the proliferation and apoptosis of macrophages in both models
and qRT-PCR was conducted to detect the expression of macrophage-related inflammatory cytokines
IL-1β
IL-6
IL-4
IL-10 and TGF-β1 after the transfection.
Results
2
Six differentially expressed lncRNAs were found (
P
<
0.05)
in which RP11-288L9.1 was significantly up-regulated (
P
<
0.01)
and mainly located in the cytoplasm of macrophages. The over-expression of RP11-288L9.1 promoted the apoptosis and inhibited the proliferation of macrophages (
P
<
0.05)
increasing the levels of IL-1β and IL-6
and decreasing those of IL-4
IL-10 and TGF-β1 (
P
<
0.01). In contrast
the knockdown of RP11-288L9.1 significantly induced the proliferation of macrophages and inhibited the apoptosis (
P
<
0.05)
with lowered levels of IL-1β and IL-6 and elevated IL-4
IL-10 and TGF-β1 (
P
<
0.01).
Conclusion
2
RP11-288L9.1 is highly expressed in the PBMCs of SLE patients
and regulates immune response in macrophages by affecting the synthesis of inflammatory cytokines
which may contribute to the occurrence of SLE.
