Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the influences of long non-coding RNA metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma tran-script 1(lncRNA MALAT1)/miR-876-5p/forkhead box protein M1(FOXM1)axis on TNF-α-induced proliferation,apoptosis and in-flammatory response of HaCaT cells.Methods:HaCaT cells were grouped into Ct group,Model group,si-NC group,si-MALAT1 group,mimic NC group,miR-876-5p mimic group,si-MALAT1+inhibitor NC group,and si-MALAT1+miR-876-5p inhibitor group.Except for the Ct group,cells in other groups were treated with 25 μg/L TNF-α to induce the in vitro cell model of psoriasis,and after 24 hours of TNF-α induction,the corresponding transfectants were transfected for 48 hours for subsequent experiments.qRT-PCR was applied to detect the expression of MALAT1 and miR-876-5p in cells;CCK-8 method and EdU staining were applied to detect cell pro-liferation;flow cytometry was applied to detect apoptosis;ELISA method was applied to detect the levels of IL-6,TNF-α,and IL-1β in cell supernatant;Western blot was applied to detect the protein expressions of FOXM1,proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA),Bcl-2-associated X protein(Bax)and B-lymphocytoma-2(Bcl-2);dual-luciferase reporter gene assay was applied to verify the rela-tionship between MALAT1 and miR-876-5p,miR-876-5p and FOXM1;and RNA pull down experiments were applied to verify the re-lationship between MALAT1 and miR-876-5p.Results:Compared with the control group,the expressions of MALAT1 and FOXM1 protein expression in the experimental group were increased,and the expression of miR-876-5p was decreased(P<0.05);compared with Ct group,the expressions of MALAT1 and FOXM1 protein expression in HaCaT cells,A450 value,EdU positive rate,the levels of IL-6,TNF-α,IL-1β,and the protein expressions of PCNA and Bcl-2 in cell supernatant in Model group increased,the expression of miR-876-5p,apoptosis rate and the protein expression of Bax were decreased(P<0.05);silencing MALAT1 or overexpressing miR-876-5p could inhibit the proliferation and inflammatory response of HaCaT cells induced by TNF-α,and promote cell apoptosis;miR-876-5p inhibitor attenuated the inhibitory effects of silencing MALAT1 on TNF-α-induced HaCaT cell proliferation and inflammatory response,and the promotion on cell apoptosis;MALAT1 targeted and regulated the miR-876-5p/FOXM1 axis.Conclusion:Silencing MALAT1 may inhibit the expression of FOXM1 by up-regulating miR-876-5p,thereby inhibiting the proliferation and inflammatory re-sponse of HaCaT cells induced by TNF-α,and promoting cell apoptosis.
