Hsa_circ_0004662 Accelerates the Progression of Osteoarthritis via the microRNA-424-5p/VEGFA Axis.
Objective: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been extensively implicated in osteoarthritis (OA) progression. Therefore, this study explores the impact of hsa_circ_0004662 on OA progression and the related molecular mechanism.
Methods: Human articular chondrocyte injury was induced by IL-1β to construct the OA model in vitro. Hsa_circ_0004662 and microRNA (miR)-424-5p expression in chondrocytes was evaluated with qRT-PCR. Vascular endothelial growth factors A (VEGFA) expression was examined with qRT-PCR and western blot after hsa_circ_0004662 knockdown or miR-424-5p overexpression in chondrocytes. Subsequent to loss- and gain-of-function assays in IL-1β-induced chondrocytes, the proliferation and apoptosis of chondrocytes were assessed with CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry, respectively. The expression of MMP13, Aggrecan, and apoptosis-related proteins Bax and Bcl-2 was measured with western blot. The binding of miR-424-5p to hsa_circ_0004662 and VEGFA was assessed with a dual-luciferase reporter gene assay.
Results: Hsa_circ_0004662 was up-regulated, but miR-424-5p was down-regulated in IL-1β-induced chondrocytes. Mechanistically, both hsa_circ_0004662 and VEGFA bound to miR-424-5p, and hsa_circ_0004662 enhanced VEGFA expression by downregulating miR-424-5p. Hsa_circ_0004662 knockdown elevated cell proliferation, decreased apoptosis and MMP13 and Bax expression, and increased Aggrecan and Bcl- 2 expression in IL-1β-induced chondrocytes, which was counteracted by further miR- 424-5p down-regulation or VEGFA overexpression.
Conclusion: Hsa_circ_0004662 facilitates OA progression via the miR-424-5p/ VEGFA axis.
期刊介绍:
Current Molecular Medicine is an interdisciplinary journal focused on providing the readership with current and comprehensive reviews/ mini-reviews, original research articles, short communications/letters and drug clinical trial studies on fundamental molecular mechanisms of disease pathogenesis, the development of molecular-diagnosis and/or novel approaches to rational treatment. The reviews should be of significant interest to basic researchers and clinical investigators in molecular medicine. Periodically the journal invites guest editors to devote an issue on a basic research area that shows promise to advance our understanding of the molecular mechanism(s) of a disease or has potential for clinical applications.
