Abstract
Objective
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a prevalent inflammatory disorder with high morbidity and seriously affects modern people. The pathogenesis of AD is complicated and involves multiple molecules. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) and zinc finger (ZNF) transcriptional factor (TF) are both essential regulators in various cellular processes. However, the roles of lncRNA LINC01215 and ZNF652 in the modulation of AD progression remain unclear. This study aims to explore the impact of LINC01215 and ZNF652 on AD.
Methods
HaCaT cells were treated with interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and anti-Fas antibody (anti-Fas-ab) to establish AD model in vitro. RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) was used to identify the association between lncRNA and protein, while the interaction of protein and promoter was determined by chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP).
Results
LINC01215 and ZNF652 should suppress differentiation of keratinocytes by downregulating FLG. Mechanically, LINC01215 suppresses FLG gene transcription by recruiting ZNF652 to FLG gene promoter. Additionally, the depletion of LINC01215 and ZNF652 inhibit proliferation of HaCaT cells in AD model in vitro.
Conclusions
LINC01215 suppresses differentiation mediated by FLG and proliferation of keratinocytes via ZNF652 in AD. Our findings might provide novel targets for AD treatment.
