Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the role and mechanism of microRNA (miR)-193a in promoting apoptosis of retinal neuronal cells in early diabetic (DM) rats.

Methods: Seventy-two male SD-grade rats were selected to establish a DM model by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ), and randomly divided into a control group (blank control group), a DM group (diabetic model group), a DM+miR-NC inhibitor group (miR-193a inhibition negative control group), a DM+miR-193a inhibitor group (miR-193a inhibitor group), DM+miR-NC mimic group (miR-193a overexpression negative control group), DM+miR-193a mimic group (miR-193a overexpression group), with12 rats in each group.

Results: The miR-193a expression, apoptosis rate, and Bax, Caspase3, and Caspase9 protein expression levels were elevated, and Bcl-2 protein expression was decreased in the retinal tissues of DM rats and high glucose-induced rat retinal neuronal cells, while miR-193a inhibitors reversed these processes. These dual luciferase reporter assay showed that WT1CDS, and WT1Mut were lower in the miR-193a group than in the miR-NC group (P<0.05); WT1 protein expression was reduced in the retinal tissues of DM rat and high glucose-induced rat retinal neuronal cells, and miR-193a inhibitors increased WT1 protein expression. Compared with cells co-transfected with miR-193a and WT1vector, miR-193a and WT1 cotransfection inhibited high glucose-induced apoptosis in retinal neuronal cells and regulated apoptotic protein expression. miR-193a was highly expressed and WT1 was lowly expressed in retinal tissues of DM rats and high glucose-induced rat retinal neuronal cells.

Conclusion: miR-193a could inhibit early retinal neuronal cell apoptosis in DM rats by targeting and negatively regulating WT1 expression.

MicroRNA-193a 通过 Wilms' Tumor Gene 1 促进早期糖尿病 (DM) 大鼠视网膜神经元细胞的凋亡

研究目的本研究旨在探讨microRNA（miR）-193a在促进早期糖尿病（DM）大鼠视网膜神经细胞凋亡中的作用和机制：方法：选取72只雄性SD级大鼠腹腔注射链脲佐菌素（STZ）建立DM模型，随机分为对照组（空白对照组）、DM组（糖尿病模型组）和miR-193a抑制组（DM+miR-NC抑制组）、DM+miR-NC抑制剂组（miR-193a抑制阴性对照组）、DM+miR-193a抑制剂组（miR-193a抑制剂组）、DM+miR-NC模拟组（miR-193a过表达阴性对照组）、DM+miR-193a模拟组（miR-193a过表达组），每组12只。结果在DM大鼠视网膜组织和高糖诱导的大鼠视网膜神经细胞中，miR-193a表达、凋亡率、Bax、Caspase3和Caspase9蛋白表达水平升高，Bcl-2蛋白表达降低，而miR-193a抑制剂可逆转这些过程。这些双荧光素酶报告实验表明，miR-193a组的WT1CDS和WT1Mut低于miR-NC组（结论：miR-193a可通过靶向和负调控WT1的表达来抑制DM大鼠早期视网膜神经细胞凋亡。
