Objective To investigate the mechanism of microRNA-214-3p(miR-214-3p)targe-ting CHUK to regulate the nuclear factor(NF)-κB pathway in modulating the chemosensitivity of lym-phoma cells to ibrutinib.Methods The half-maximal inhibitory concentration(IC50)was used to verify the ibrutinib-resistant cell model.The expression levels of miR-214-3p and CHUK mRNA in tissues and cells were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR).Western blotting(WB)was employed to assess CHUK protein levels.A dual-luciferase reporter assay was performed to confirm the direct targeting relationship between miR-214-3p and CHUK.Cell viability was measured using CCK-8 assay.Flow cytometry was used to evaluate cell apoptosis.The expression of the NF-κB p65 signaling pathway was detected by WB.Results The CHUK mRNA and CHUK protein expression levels were higher in ibrutinib-resistant cells than in control cells(P<0.05).The qRT-PCR results showed that miR-214-3p was downregulated in ibrutinib-resistant cells.The dual-luciferase reporter assay confirmed that miR-214-3p directly targeted CHUK.Transfection of miR-214-3p mimics and knockdown of CHUK(si-CHUK)reduced the number of colony-forming cells,whereas transfection of miR-214-3p inhibitor increased the number of colony-forming cells(P<0.05).Transfection of miR-214-3p mimics and knockdown of CHUK(si-CHUK)can promote apoptosis,while transfection of miR-214-3p inhibitor can inhibit apoptosis(P<0.05).Inhibition of the NF-κB p65 pathway was observed in cells transfected with miR-214-3p mimics(P<0.05).Conclusion MiR-214-3p may regulate the NF-κB p65 pathway by targeting the expression of CHUK,thereby enhancing the chemosensitivity of ibrutinib to lymphoma.

Objective:To observe any effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on the expression of phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (p-ERK1/2) and phosphorylated cyclic adenosine monophosphate response element binding protein (p-CREB) in the spinal dorsal horns of diabetics experiencing neuropathic pain.Methods:Eight rats were randomly selected from 30 healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats as the normal group (N), and the remaining twenty-two rats were treated with a single high-dose intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ) to establish a neuropathic pain model. The rats modeled successfully were randomly divided into a model group (M, n=8) and an EA group ( n=8). In the EA group, electroacupuncture was applied at the bilateral Hou san li and Kunlun acupoints starting on the 15th day after the STZ injection. The daily sessions lasted 30 minutes for 1 week. Body weight (BW), fasting blood glucose (FBG) and paw withdrawal latency (PWL) were observed before the STZ injection and on the 7th, 14th, and 21st days afterward. The expression of p-ERK1/2 and p-CREB in the dorsal horns of the rats′ spinal cords was detected using western blotting. The count of p-CREB-positive cells in the dorsal horns and their co-localization with neurons was detected using immunofluorescence. Results:In comparison with the N group, the average BW of the M group on the 7th, 14th and 21st days after the STZ injection was significantly lower, while the average FBG was significantly higher. There was no significant difference between the M and N groups in the average PWL on the 7th day after the STZ injection, but it had decreased significantly in the M group on the 14th and 21st days. Compared with the M group, the average PWL of the EA group was significantly longer on the 21st day after the injection. The expression of p-ERK1/2 and p-CREB protein in the spines of the M group was significantly higher than in the N group. p-CREB positive cells were more numerous in the M group compared with the N group, while in the EA group they were fewer. P-CREB was co-located with neurons in the spinal dorsal horn.Conclusion:EA can alleviate neuropathic pain effectively, perhaps by inhibiting the expression of p-ERK1/2 and p-CREB in the dorsal horns of the spinal cord.
