AbstractThe functions of the long non-coding RNA, Nuclear enriched abundant transcript 1 (Neat1), are poorly understood. Neat1 is required for the formation of paraspeckles, but its respective paraspeckle-dependent or independent functions are unknown. Several studies including ours reported that Neat1 is involved in the regulation of circadian rhythms. We characterized the impact of Neat1 genetic deletion in a rat pituitary cell line. The mRNAs whose circadian expression pattern or expression level is regulated by Neat1 were identified after high-throughput RNA sequencing of the circadian transcriptome of wild-type cells compared to cells in which Neat1 was deleted by CRISPR/Cas9. The numerous RNAs affected by Neat1 deletion were found to be circadian or non-circadian, targets or non-targets of paraspeckles, and to be associated with many key biological processes showing that Neat1, interacting or independently of the circadian system, could play crucial roles in key physiological functions through diverse mechanisms.

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have recently emerged as inflammation-associated biological molecules with a specific role in the progression of liver fibrosis conditions including non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). The aim of this study was to elucidate the effects of lncRNA nuclear enriched abundant transcript 1 (NEAT1), microRNA-129-5p (miR-129-5p), and paternally expressed gene 3 (PEG3) on the biological activities of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) subjected to NASH. First, microarray-based analysis revealed upregulated PEG3 in NASH. Liver tissues from mice fed a methionine–choline-deficient (MCD) diet exhibited increased expression of NEAT1 and PEG3 along with lower miR-129-5p expression. A series of in vitro and in vivo assays were then performed on HSCs after transfection with shPEG3, miR-129-5p mimic, or treatment with pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC), an inhibitor of the nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) signaling pathway. Results confirmed the alleviated fibrosis by restoring miR-129-5p, while depleting PEG3 or NEAT1, as evidenced by the inactivation of HSCs. To sum up, NEAT1 can bind specifically to miR-129-5p and consequently regulate miR-129-5p and PEG3 expression in relation to the HSC activation occurring in NASH. Thus, NEAT1-targeted inhibition against miR-129-5p presents a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of NASH.

Abstract Objective: Long non-coding RNA (LncRNA) nuclear-enriched abundant transcript 1 (NEAT1) has been studied in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), while the regulatory mechanism of NEAT1 on PCOS by regulating microRNA (miR)-324-3p remains extensive exploration. Our study aims to investigate the role of NEAT1, miR-324-3p and bromodomain containing 3 (BRD3) in PCOS.Methods: Firstly, the PCOS rat model was established, and then NEAT1, miR-324-3p and BRD3 levels were detected in PCOS rats. The decreased NEAT1 or augmented miR-324-3p were injected into the PCOS rats to determine the change of biochemical indices and pathology. Also, the rescue experiment was conducted. Thereafter, the binding relations among NEAT1, miR-324-3p and BRD3 were analyzed.Results: NEAT1 and BRD3 were enriched while miR-324-3p was decreased in PCOS rats. The reduction of NEAT1 or the elevation of miR-324-3p mitigated the obesity and metabolic disorders in PCOS rats. NEAT1 sponged miR-324-3p as a competing endogenous RNA and miR-324-3p targeted BRD3. The elevated miR-324-3p or reduced BRD3 reversed effects of enhanced NEAT1.Conclusion: NEAT1 exacerbates obesity and metabolic disorders of PCOS rats via regulating miR-324-3p to target BRD3. This study affords a novel direction for PCOS treatment.
