Abstract:

Objective

To analyze the role and mechanism of miR-200b-3p in seawater inhalation acute lung injury (ALI).

Methods

Thirty-two healthy SD rats were selected and divided into blank control group, seawater stimulation group, miR-200b-3p antagomir pretreatment group and antag NC pretreatment group, with 8 rats in each group. The rat pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (RPMVECs) model of seawater inhalation lung injury and rat pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells were constructed. Wet-dry ratio(W/D) of lung tissue was observed, and microvascular permeability of lung was detected by Evans blue method. Western blot analysis of the expression of -hypoxia inducible factor-1(HIF-1α) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were detected. Dual luciferase reporter gene assay was used to verify the relationship between HIF-1α and miR-200b-3p.

Results

After seawater treatment for 4 h, the wet-dry ratio(W/D) and permeability of lung tissue were significantly increased, and the expression of miR-200b-3p, HIF-1α and VEGF were significantly increased in lung tissue and cell models. However, inhibition of the expression of miR-200b-3p significantly alleviated pulmonary edema, the expression of HIF-1α and VEGF were decreased in lung tissues and cell models. Dual luciferase reporter gene verified that miR-200b-3p directly targeted HIF-1α. Compared with blank control group, the expressions of HIF-1α and VEGF in lung tissue and HIF-1α and VEGF in RPMVECs cells were increased in seawater stimulated group.

Conclusion

Increased expression of miR-200b-3p plays a key role in the development of pulmonary edema induced by seawater aspiration injury,which is mediated by the HIF-1α/VEGF pathway.
