Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of miRNA-145 (miR-145) on immuno-inflammatory reaction of foam cells by targeting CD40. Methods Mouse macrophage cell line RAW 264.7 cells cultured in vitro were randomly divided into model group (non-transfected), miR-145 mimics group (transfected miR-145 mimics), miR-145 inhibitor group (transfected miR-145 inhibitor) and silencing CD40 sequence group (transfected siCD40). Then oxidized low density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) was used to stimulate for 24 h to establish immune inflammatory damage cell model. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and Western blot assay were used to detect the levels of CD 40 mRNA and protein of each group. ELISA was used to detect the levels of inflammatory factors interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) -α in cell supernatant. Results Compared with model group, the levels of CD40 mRNA, CD40 protein and IL-1, IL-6, TNF-αwere all significantly decreased in miR-145 mimics group (P<0.01). After transfected with miR-145 inhibitor, the above indexes were all significantly increased than those of model group and miR-145 mimics group (P<0.01). After transfected with CD40 siRNA, the levels of CD40 mRNA, CD40 protein and IL-1, IL-6, TNF-αwere all obviously decreased compared with those of miR-145 inhibitor group (P<0.01). Conclusion MiR-145 can regulate the immune inflammatory process of foam cells through the target gene CD40, inhibit the activation of CD40/CD40L signaling pathway and inhibit inflammatory response.
