Abstract
Objective: This study aims to explore the effect of NONHSAT042241 on the function of rheumatoid arthritis -fibroblast-like synoviocyte (RA-FLS) and the underlying mechanisms.
Methods: RA-FLS was treated with NONHSAT042241 overexpression and NONHSAT042241 knockdown lentiviruses. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, colony formation assay, flow cytometry, Transwell assay, western-blot, ELISA, and qRT-PCR were used to measure the changes of cell proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, secretion of inflammatory cytokines and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) assay, RNA pull-down assay, mass spectrometry (MS) and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) were used to find the target proteins that bond to NONHSAT042241, and western-blot was used to detect the expression of related proteins of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.
Results: Overexpression of NONHSAT042241 inhibited the proliferation of RA-FLS (p < 0.05), invasion, secretion of pro-inflammatory factors (IL-1and IL-6) and MMPs (MMP-1 and MMP-3) (p < 0.05), and elevated the level of pro-apoptotic factors (Bax and cleaved caspase3), while NONHSAT042241 knockdown had the opposite effect. NONHSAT042241 can directly bind to hnRNP D, and down-regulated the expression of β-catenin (p < 0.05), p-GSK-3β (p < 0.05), Cyclin D1 (p < 0.05), PCNA (p < 0.05), and thus reduced the cell proliferation.
Conclusion: NONHSAT042241 may inhibit FLS-mediated rheumatoid synovial proliferation, inflammation and aggression. The underlying mechanisms may be that NONHSAT042241 inhibits the activity of Wnt/β-catenin signaling.

期刊介绍:
Autoimmunity is an international, peer reviewed journal that publishes articles on cell and molecular immunology, immunogenetics, molecular biology and autoimmunity. Current understanding of immunity and autoimmunity is being furthered by the progress in new molecular sciences that has recently been little short of spectacular. In addition to the basic elements and mechanisms of the immune system, Autoimmunity is interested in the cellular and molecular processes associated with systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, Sjogren syndrome, type I diabetes, multiple sclerosis and other systemic and organ-specific autoimmune disorders. The journal reflects the immunology areas where scientific progress is most rapid. It is a valuable tool to basic and translational researchers in cell biology, genetics and molecular biology of immunity and autoimmunity.
