Abstract Aims Our study aimed to investigate the role of long non-coding RNA ANRIL (lnc-ANRIL) knock-down in regulating cell activities, inflammation and downstream signaling pathways in mouse mesangial cellular diabetic nephropathy (DN) model. Methods The mouse mesangial cells (SV40-MES13 cells) were treated with high-glucose (HG) to construct cellular DN model. Lnc-ANRIL knock-down plasmid and control knock-down plasmid were transfected into HG-treated SV40-MES13 cells as Sh-ANRIL group and Sh-NC group respectively. Results Lnc-ANRIL expression was significantly higher in HG-treated SV40-MES13 cells compared with normal glucose-treated SV40-MES13 cells and osmotic control-treated SV40-MES13 cells. Lnc-ANRIL knock-down suppressed cell proliferation and promoted cell apoptosis in HG-treated SV40-MES13 cells. As for fibrosis, lnc-ANRIL knock-down reduced fibronectin and collagen I expressions in HG-treated SV40-MES13 cells. Besides, the expressions of supernatant tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-8 and IL-18 were reduced in Sh-ANRIL group compared with Sh-NC group. Furthermore, Wnt3, β-catenin, p-MEK1 and p-ERK1 expressions were suppressed in Sh-ANRIL group compared with Sh-NC group, which suggested that lnc-ANRIL knock-down inhibited Wnt/β-catenin and MEK/ERK pathways in HG-treated SV40-MES13 cells. Conclusions Lnc-ANRIL knock-down suppresses mouse mesangial cell proliferation, fibrosis, inflammation, Wnt/β-catenin and MEK/ERK pathways in DN.

AbstractDiabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is one of the most serious complications of diabetes, but its pathogenesis remains largely unclear. In the present study, we aimed to explore the potential role of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) maternally expressed gene 3 (MEG3) and to investigate the underlying mechanisms in human AC16 cardiomyocytes under high glucose (HG) condition. The results demonstrated that MEG3 was overexpressed in HG-treated AC16 cells, and MEG3 knockdown suppressed the HG-induced apoptosis in AC16 cells. Mechanistically, MEG3 directly binds to miR-145 in AC16 cells, thereby up-regulating the expression of PDCD4. Rescue experiments showed that the role of MEG3 in HG-treated AC16 cells was partly dependent on its suppression on miR-145. In summary, our findings suggested that the role of MEG3 in HG-treated human cardiomyocytes is to serve as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA), which negatively regulates miR-145. These findings may provide a valuable and promising therapeutic target for the treatment of DCM in the future.

Abstract Background Long non-coding RNA cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2B antisense RNA 1 (CDKN2B-AS1) has been reported to be related to diabetic nephropathy (DN) progression. However, the regulatory mechanisms of CDKN2B-AS1 in DN are unclear. Methods High glucose (HG) was used to induce human mesangial cells (HMCs) for establishing the DN model. Expression levels of CDKN2B-AS1, microRNA (miR)-15b-5p, wingless-Type family member 2B (WNT2B) mRNA in serum and HMCs were detected through quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The viability and cell cycle progression of HMCs were determined with Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) or flow cytometry assays. The levels of several proteins and inflammatory factors in HMCs were analyzed by western blotting or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The relationship between CDKN2B-AS1 or WNT2B and miR-15b-5p was verified with dual-luciferase reporter assay. Results CDKN2B-AS1 and WNT2B were upregulated while miR-15b-5p was downregulated in serum of DN patients and HG-treated HMCs. CDKN2B-AS1 inhibition reduced HG-induced viability, cell cycle progression, ECM accumulation, and inflammation response in HMCs. CDKN2B-AS1 regulated WNT2B expression via competitively binding to miR-15b-5p. MiR-15b-5p inhibitor reversed CDKN2B-AS1 knockdown-mediated influence on viability, cell cycle progression, ECM accumulation, and inflammation response of HG-treated HMCs. The repressive effect of miR-15b-5p mimic on viability, cell cycle progression, ECM accumulation, and inflammation response of HG-treated HMCs was abolished by WNT2B overexpression. Conclusion CDKN2B-AS1 regulated HG-induced HMC viability, cell cycle progression, ECM accumulation, and inflammation response via regulating the miR-15b-5p/WNT2B axis, provided a new mechanism for understanding the development of DN.
