Abstract

Regulatory mechanisms of microRNAs (miRNAs) in the development of intestinal sepsis are unclear. This study investigated the role of rno-miR-146b-5p in sepsis-induced intestinal injury. A rat sepsis model was created using the cecal ligation and puncture method. The expression profiles of miRNA and mRNA in sepsis rats were examined using miRNA and mRNA sequencing; rno-miR-146b was selected for further investigation. The mimics and inhibitors of rno-miR-146b-5p were transfected into IEC-6 cells and then with or without lipopolysaccharide (LPS) treatment, and the expressions of Kruppel-like factor 4 (Klf4) and Cyclin D2 (Ccnd2) were assessed by quantitative real-time transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and western blotting. Next, cell counting kit-8 assay was used to detect cell viability, and scratch wound healing assay was used to assess cell migration. In sepsis rat model, crypt cell proliferation was inhibited and crypt cell apoptosis was increased. Compared with the sham control, results of miRNA and mRNA sequencing showed that there were 17 miRNAs and 1617 mRNAs that were upregulated and 123 miRNAs and 1917 mRNAs that were downregulated in the sepsis model group. The network diagrams and qRT-PCR validation ind...Continue Reading

Cell Migration

Cell migration is involved in a variety of physiological and pathological processes such as embryonic development, cancer metastasis, blood vessel formation and remoulding, tissue regeneration, immune surveillance and inflammation. Here is the latest research.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis
