Gene expression microarray and reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to measure the expression of miR-126. In model of diabetic nephropathy, we demonstrated that miR-126 expression was down-regulated, compared with control group. Down-expression of miR-126 promoted cell apoptosis and increased inflammation (as indicated by the levels of IL-1β, IL-6, IL-18 and TNF-α) of diabetic nephropathy . miR-126 over-expression led to significant inhibition of cell apoptosis and suppressed inflammation (IL-1β, IL-6, IL-18 and TNF-α). However, the down-expression of miR-126 suppressed the protein expression of VEGF, PI3K and p-AKT in diabetic nephropathy . On the contrary, over-expression of miR-126 induced the protein expression of VEGF, PI3K and p-AKT in diabetic nephropathy . The inhibition of VEGF increased the effect of miR-126 down-expression on apoptosis and inflammation in diabetic nephropathy . We investigated the specific function of miR-126 in patients with diabetic nephropathy and its possible mechanism.
采用基因表达微阵列和逆转录定量聚合酶链反应(RT-qPCR)来测量 miR-126 的表达。在糖尿病肾病模型中,与对照组相比,我们证明 miR-126 的表达下调。miR-126 的下调促进细胞凋亡并增加糖尿病肾病的炎症(由 IL-1β、IL-6、IL-18 和 TNF-α 的水平表示)。miR-126 的过表达导致细胞凋亡的显著抑制并抑制炎症(IL-1β、IL-6、IL-18 和 TNF-α)。然而,miR-126 的下调抑制了糖尿病肾病中 VEGF、PI3K 和 p-AKT 的蛋白表达。相反,miR-126 的过表达诱导了糖尿病肾病中 VEGF、PI3K 和 p-AKT 的蛋白表达。VEGF 的抑制增加了 miR-126 下调对糖尿病肾病中细胞凋亡和炎症的影响。我们研究了 miR-126 在糖尿病肾病患者中的具体功能及其可能的机制。
