    Airway inflammation is one of the typical pathological characteristics of asthma. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in regulating inflammation. Nevertheless, miRNA-885-3p (miR-885-3p)’s role in asthmatic inflammation and the underlying mechanism need to be explained. In this work, miR-885-3p expression and toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) expression in asthma patients’ plasma and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated 16HBE cells were detected through quantitative real-time PCR. The interleukin-8 (IL-8), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels in 16HBE cell supernatant were examined via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and flow cytometry were employed to examine 16HBE cell viability and apoptosis, respectively. Western blotting was performed to examine the expression of TLR4, cleaved caspase-3, B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2), nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) p65, Bcl-2-related X protein (Bax), phosphorylated (p)-NF-κB p65 and myeloid differentiation primitive-response protein 88 (MyD88) in 16HBE cells. Furthermore, the targeted relationship between TLR4 and miR-885-3p in 16HBE cells was determined through dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. Compared with healthy volunteers, miR-885-3p expression in acute asthma patients’ plasma was significantly downregulated. In 16HBE cells, the stimulation of LPS reduced miR-885-3p expression. MiR-885-3p overexpression reduced LPS-stimulated 16HBE cell injury by enhancing cell viability, and suppressing the levels of inflammatory factors and apoptosis. Furthermore, TLR4 was identified as miR-885-3p’s target gene. TLR4 overexpression weakened the impacts of miR-885-3p on LPS-stimulated cell injury and NF-κB-MyD88 signaling. In conclusion, miR-885-3p can reduce LPS-induced 16HBE cell damage, via targeting TLR4 to suppress the NF-κB-MyD88 pathway.</p

    Background: The regulatory network of competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) affects tumorigenesis. In this study, we aimed to investigate the mechanism by which long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) HOXA-AS2 promotes prostate cancer (PCa) progression. Methods: The expression levels of HOXA-AS2, miR-885-5p, and KDM5B in PCa tissues and cell lines were evaluated by qRT-PCR or western blotting. CCK-8 assay, caspase-3 activity assay, flow cytometry, and scratch test revealed changes in cell proliferation, caspase-3 activity, apoptosis, and migration, respectively. Luciferase and radioimmunoprecipitation assays were used to evaluate the correlation among HOXA-AS2, miR-885-5p, and KDM5B expression profiles. Results: HOXA-AS2 expression level was elevated in PCa tissues and cells. Silencing of HOXA-AS2 suppressed proliferation and migration and facilitated apoptosis in PCa cells. HOXA-AS2 competitively adsorbed miR-885-5p, thereby blocking the effect of HOXA-AS2 knockdown by the miR-885-5p inhibitor in PCa cells. Moreover, KDM5B, a target of miR-885-5p, neutralized the function of miR-885-5p in PCa cells. Conclusions: This study revealed a potential ceRNA regulatory pathway in which HOXA-AS2 affects KDM5B expression levels by sponging miR-885-5p to promote PCa development and progression

    BackgroundSeptic myocardial depression has been associated with increased morbidity and mortality. miR-885-5p has been shown to regulate cell growth, senescence, and/or apoptosis. Published studies demonstrated that Homeobox-containing protein 1 (HMBOX1) inhibits inflammatory response, regulates cell autophagy, and apoptosis. However, the role of miR-885-5p/HMBOX1 in sepsis and septic myocardial depression and the underlying mechanism is not fully understood.Materials and MethodsExosomes (exos) derived from sepsis patients (sepsis-exos) were isolated using ultracentrifugation. Rats were subjected to cecal ligation and puncture surgery and treated with sepsis-exos. HMBOX1 was knocked down or overexpressed in AC16 cells using lentiviral plasmids carrying short interfering RNAs targeting human HMBOX1 or carrying HMBOX1 cDNA. Cell pyroptosis was measured by flow cytometry. The secretion of IL-1β and IL-18 was examined by ELISA kits. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) or western blot was used for gene expression.ResultsSepsis-exos increased the level of miR-885-5p, decreased HMBOX1, elevated IL-1β and IL-18, and promoted pyroptosis in AC16 cells. Septic rats treated with sepsis-exos increased the serum inflammatory cytokines is associated with increased pyroptosis-related proteins of hearts. MiR-885-5p bound to the three prime untranslated regions of HMBOX1 to negatively regulate its expression. Overexpressing HMBOX1 reversed miR-885-5p-induced elevation of inflammatory cytokines and upregulation of NLRP3, caspase-1, and GSDMD-N in AC16 cells. The mechanistic study indicated that the effect of HMBOX1 was NF-κB dependent.ConclusionSepsis-exos promoted the pyroptosis of AC16 cells through miR-885-5p via HMBOX1. The results show the significance of the miR-885-5p/HMBOX1 axis in myocardial cell pyroptosis and provide new directions for the treatment of septic myocardial depression.</p
