The expression of miR-363-5p and its target was evaluated by PCR. The painology behaviors were evaluated to assess the function of miR-363-5p. Schwann cells were induced with LPS mimicking cell injury during neuropathic pain. Inflammation and cell growth were estimated by ELISA and CCK8 assays.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Significant downregulation of miR-363-5p and upregulation of SERPING1 were observed in CCI rats. miR-363-5p negatively regulated SERPING1 in CCI rats and LPS-induced Schwann cells. Overexpressing miR-363-5p could improve pain threshold and alleviate inflammation in CCI rats. It also a ttenuated LPS-induced inflammation and reduced proliferation in Schwann cells. The overexpression of SERPING1 could reverse the protective effect of miR-363-5p on CCI rats and LPS-induced Schwann cell injury.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>miR-363-5p protected from neuropathic pain via alleviating Schwann cell injury by negatively modulating SERPING1.</p>","PeriodicalId":19131,"journal":{"name":"Neurological Research","volume":" ","pages":"35-43"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142813460","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
