ABSTRACT

MicroRNAs (miRs) and inflammatory cytokines can induce acute lung injury (ALI), which can develop into acute respiratory distress syndrome in severe cases. Previous research has revealed that miR-122-5p participates in the development of ALI, and that its expression is positively associated with ALI. However, the mechanism by which miR-122-5p contributes to ALI remains to be determined. In the current study, TargetScan and dual luciferase reporter gene assays were used to confirm that IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL1RN) was a target of miR-122-5p. Subsequently, by referring to previous literature, a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI cell model was established. A549 cells were transfected with mimic control or miR-122-5p mimics for 24 h, and 10 µg LPS was used to treat the transfected cells for 12 h. The results revealed that miR-122-5p mimics dec reased cell viability and promoted apoptosis. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release assays indicated that miR-122-5p mimics increased LDH release. ELISA demonstrated that miR-122-5p mimics promoted TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 expression levels. A549 cells were transfected with inhibitor control, miR-122-5p inhibitor, miR-122-5p inhibitor + control-small interfering (si)RNA or miR-122-5p inhibitor + IL1RN-siRNA for 24 h, after which the cells were treated with 10 µg LPS for 12 h. The results revealed that the effects of the miR-122-5p inhibitor were the opposite of those of the miR-122-5p mimic. All the effects of miR-122-5p inhibitor on LPS-treated A549 cells were significantly reversed by IL1RN-siRNA. Overall, the results highlighted miR-122-5p as a potential novel target for the treatment of ALI.
