Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the expression and mechanism of microRNA-98-5p(miR-98-5p)and DNA methyltransferase 3A(DNMT3A)in patients with ulcerative colitis(UC)and animal model of ulcerative colitis.Methods:One-hundred UC patients in our hospital from January 2021 to December 2022 were collected as the observation group,another 100 healthy subjects were collected as the control group,serum miR-98-5p,DNMT3A mRNA and protein ex-pression were detected,the relationship between miR-98-5p,DNMT3A mRNA and clinical pathological characteristics of UC was analyzed;the UC rat model was established and randomly grouped into a blank group(CT group),a model group(UC group),a miR-98-5p control group(antagomiR-NC group),and a miR-98-5p inhibitor group(antagomiR-98-5p group),ELISA was applied to measure the levels of serum interleukin-1(IL-1),IL-6,and tumor necrosis factor(TNF),HE staining was applied to observe the histopathology changes of the colon,RT-qPCR and Western blot were applied to detect miR-98-5p,DNMT3A mRNA and protein expression levels in colon tissue.Results:Compared with the control group,the serum miR-98-5p expression of UC patients was increased,DNMT3A mRNA and DNMT3A were decreased,the expression of miR-98-5p and DNMT3A mRNA were associated with disease grading,mucopurulent bloody stools,mucosal acute and chronic inflammation,and atypical hyperplasia(P＜0.05);compared with the CT group,the colon mucosal layer of rats in the UC group showed defects,and obvious infil-tration of inflammatory cells,serum IL-1,IL-6,TNF and colon miR-98-5p expression were in-creased,the DNMT3A mRNA and protein expression were decreased(P＜0.05);compared with the antagomiR-NC group,the mucosal layer defect and inflammatory cell infiltration in the an-tagomiR-98-5p group were reduced,and the structure was clearer,serum IL-1,IL-6,TNF,and colon miR-98-5p expression were decreased,DNMT3A mRNA and protein expression were in-creased(P＜0.05);miR-98-5p had a targeted binding site with DNMT3A.Conclusion:Serum miR-98-5p expression of UC patients and the colon tissue of model rats was increased,while DNMT3A expression was decreased.Down-regulating miR-98-5p expression can promote the expression of DNMT3A and improve UC symptoms.
