ABSTRACT

Objective:

To investigate the effects of miR-24 on endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene expression with regulation and endothelial cell proliferation, migration, tube formation in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs).

Methods:

Constructed high expression plasmid of miR-24 and miR-24 antisense sequence were introduced into HUVECs and the cells included in 3 groups Control group, miR-24 group and miR-24 inhibitor group. HUVEC proliferation was detected by MTT test, migration was measured by Scratching and Transwell methods, tube formation was examined by Matrigel assay; mRNA and protein expressions of eNOS and Sp1were determined by RT-PCR and Western blot analysis respectively.

Results:

①Compared with Control group, miR-24 group had decreased cell proliferation by 45.45% as (0.36 ± 0.04) vs (0.66 ± 0.08),P<0.05; miR-24 group had lower speed of cell migration, decreased number of cell migration by 74.75% as (30.25±3.78) vs (119.80±10.94),P<0.01 and there was no obvious tube formation.②Compared with Control group, miR-24 group showed reduced eNOS mRNA expression by 46.2% as (0.49±0.02) vs (0.91±0.01),P<0.05, reduced protein expression by 49.07% as (0.55±0.05) vs (1.08±0.05),P<0.05; meanwhile, decreased Sp1 mRNA expression by 44.9% as (0.49±0. 01) vs (0. 89±0.02)P<0.05, decreased protein expression by 54.90% as (0.46±0.02) vs (1.02±0.04),P<0.05. In miR-24 inhibitor group, the above indexes were lower than Control group but higher than miR-24 group, the amount of tube formation and the length of tubes were similar between Control group and miR-24 inhibitor group.

Conclusion:

MiR-24 may inhibit HUVECs proliferation, migration, tube formation and suppress eNOS expression; Sp1 might be one of the important regulators.
