Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an inflammation-involved disorder and features the disruption of CD4 T lymphocytes. Herein, we describe that microRNA-10b-5p (miR-10b) promotes RA progression by disrupting the balance between subsets of CD4 T cells. MiR-10b-deficient mice protected against collagen antibody-induced arthritis (CAIA) model. RNA sequencing results indicated that disordered genes in miR-10b CAIA model are closely associated with CD4 T cells differentiation. Moreover, miR-10b mimics promoted Th1/Th17 and suppressed Th2/Treg cells differentiation, whereas miR-10b inhibitor induced contrary effects. In addition, GATA3 and PTEN was confirmed as two targets of miR-10b, and GATA3 siRNA could increase Th1 and reduce Th2 cells meanwhile PTEN siRNA could increase Th17 and decrease Treg cells. Furthermore, miR-10b inhibitor significantly ameliorated collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) development by attenuating the dysfunctional CD4 T cell subpopulations. The present findings suggest that miR-10b could disrupt the balance of CD4 T subsets, while suppressed miR-10b could attenuate the severity of experimental arthritis, which provided us a novel mechanistic and therapeutic insight into the RA.
类风湿性关节炎(RA)是一种涉及炎症的疾病,其特征是CD4 T淋巴细胞功能紊乱。在此,我们描述了微小RNA-10b-5p(miR-10b)通过破坏CD4 T细胞亚群之间的平衡来促进RA的进展。miR-10b缺陷小鼠对胶原抗体诱导的关节炎(CAIA)模型具有保护作用。RNA测序结果表明,miR-10b CAIA模型中紊乱的基因与CD4 T细胞分化密切相关。此外,miR-10b模拟物促进Th1/Th17细胞分化并抑制Th2/Treg细胞分化,而miR-10b抑制剂则产生相反的效果。此外,GATA3和PTEN被证实为miR-10b的两个靶点,GATA3小干扰RNA(siRNA)可增加Th1细胞并减少Th2细胞,同时PTEN siRNA可增加Th17细胞并减少Treg细胞。此外,miR-10b抑制剂通过减弱功能失调的CD4 T细胞亚群,显著改善了胶原诱导的关节炎(CIA)的发展。本研究结果表明,miR-10b可破坏CD4 T亚群的平衡,而抑制miR-10b可减轻实验性关节炎的严重程度,这为我们对RA的发病机制和治疗提供了新的见解。
