In the present study, hsa-miR-424-5p mimic plasmid and hsa-mir-424-5p inhibitor plasmid were designed and injected into rats respectively, and miRNA control plasmid was also constructed. Models of Type 1 diabetes (T1D) were built. After successful modeling, the expression of hsa-miR-424-5p in lymphocytes was analyzed by RT-PCR. The expression of protein PD-1, T-bet, CXCR3, STING in Th1 lymphocytes and content of IGF-1 in islet tissue were analyzed by flow analysis. The protein levels of SHP2, Rheb, mTORC1, Rictor and Raptor in islet tissue were analyzed by Western blot. The results showed that hsa-miR-424-5p mimic group had the highest expression of hsa-miR-424-5p in lymphocytes. The expression of PD-1 was in hsa-miR-424-5p inhibitor > miRNA control > hsa-miR-424-5p mimic, while the expression of T-bet, CXCR3 and STING was in hsa-miR-424-5p mimic > miRNA control > hsa-miR-424-5p inhibitor. The expression of IGF-1 protein in hsa-miR-424-5p inhibitor group was the highest (32.08%) and hardly expressed in hsa-miR-424-5p mimic group (2.36%). The expression of SHP2, Rheb, mTORC1, Rictor and Raptor of insulin histoproteins were in hsa-miR-424-5p mimic group > miRNA control of > hsa-miR-424-5p inhibitor group, with statistical differences. It indicates that hsa-miR-424-5p binding PD-1 signaling molecules can stimulate the immune effect through the mTORC signaling pathway and participates in the pathogenesis of T1D.
在本研究中,分别设计了 hsa-miR-424-5p 模拟质粒和 hsa-mir-424-5p 抑制剂质粒,并构建了 miRNA 对照质粒。构建 1 型糖尿病(T1D)模型。建模成功后,通过 RT-PCR 分析淋巴细胞中 hsa-miR-424-5p 的表达。通过流式分析分析 Th1 淋巴细胞中 PD-1、T-bet、CXCR3、STING 的表达以及胰岛组织中 IGF-1 的含量。通过 Western blot 分析胰岛组织中 SHP2、Rheb、mTORC1、Rictor 和 Raptor 的蛋白水平。结果表明,hsa-miR-424-5p 模拟组淋巴细胞中 hsa-miR-424-5p 表达最高。PD-1 的表达为 hsa-miR-424-5p 抑制剂>miRNA 对照>hsa-miR-424-5p 模拟,而 T-bet、CXCR3 和 STING 的表达为 hsa-miR-424-5p 模拟>miRNA 对照>hsa-miR-424-5p 抑制剂。hsa-miR-424-5p 抑制剂组 IGF-1 蛋白表达最高(32.08%),hsa-miR-424-5p 模拟组几乎不表达(2.36%)。胰岛素组织蛋白 SHP2、Rheb、mTORC1、Rictor 和 Raptor 的表达为 hsa-miR-424-5p 模拟组>miRNA 对照组>hsa-miR-424-5p 抑制剂组,差异有统计学意义。表明 hsa-miR-424-5p 结合 PD-1 信号分子,通过 mTORC 信号通路刺激免疫效应,参与 T1D 的发病机制。
