ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH ) on the expression of mRNA and long noncoding RNA ( lncRNA ) in retinal vascular endothelial cells stimulated by hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia. Methods The simian retinal vascular endothelial cells (RF/6A)were cultured and divided into normal control group,model control group,0. 1μmol/Lα-MSH group,0. 5μmol/Lα-MSH group and 1. 0μmol/L α-MSH group. The cells were stained with CM-H2 DCFDA to detect cell antioxidant capacity. The optimal concentration of α-MSH was screened. The cells from normal control group,model control group andα-MSH treatment group were collected at 24 hours after treatment,the total RNA was extracted,the cDNA library was constructed,and the high throughput RNA sequencing ( RNA-seq ) was carried out with bioinformatics analysis to analyze the expression profiling of mRNA and lncRNA. Results The fluorescence intensity of cells in 0. 5 μmol/L α-MSH group was significantly lower than that in model control group ( P<0. 05 ) .α-MSH of 0. 5μmol/L was chosen as the optimal concentration for subsequent experiments. Compared with the model control group, 243 mRNAs were significantly down-regulated,while 81 mRNAs were up-regulated in the α-MSH treatment group;53 lncRNAs were markedly up-regulated and 6 lncRNAs were down-regulated in the α-MSH treatment group. Bioinformatics analysis showed that the major enrichment pathways of the down-regulated genes were transforming growth factor-β( TGF-β) signaling pathway,focal adhesion signaling pathway and extracellular matrix ( ECM) receptor interactions pathways, and the main biological process involved was the regulation of small GTPase-mediated signal transduction. The co-expression gene enrichment pathways of differentially expressed lncRNA included ECM receptor interaction and hypoxia inducible factor-1(HIF-1) pathway,et al. These pathways were mainly involved in the biological processes, such as axon guidance and positive regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase Ⅱ promoter. Conclusions Under hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia, the influence of α-MSH on the transcriptome of the retinal vascular endothelial cells manifests the downregulation of mRNA and upregulation of lncRNA. α-MSH may upregulate the lncRNA expression,which downregulates the downstream mRNA expression.
