ABSTRACT
Objective:To observe the MiSeq sequencing analysis results of fulvic acid (FA) intervention in hypoxia-induced human retinal microvascular endothelial cell (hRMEC) gene expression profile.Methods:hRMEC were cultured in vitro and divided into the hypoxia group (hypoxia treatment) and the FA intervention group (FA intervention after hypoxia). The MTT colorimetric method was used to detect the influence of different concentrations and different modes of FA on hRMEC activity. The optimal concentration of FA was chosen. RT-PCR was used to investigated the effect of FA on hypoxia-induced intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), IL-1β, IL-4, IL-6, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, MMP-2, TNF-α, TNF-β, other inflammatory factors in hRMEC, and inflammation-related factors mRNA expression. Cells in the hypoxia group and FA intervention group in the logarithmic growth phase were collected. MiSeq sequencing technology was applyed to complete the whole transcriptome sequencing of the two groups of cells, biological data were obtained, and the differentially expressed miRNA were analyzed on this basis. Gene annotation (GO) functionally significant enrichment analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genome (KEGG) pathway significant enrichment analysis were used to analyze the functions and signal pathways of differential miRNAs. The expression of inflammatory factors and inflammation-related factors were compared between groups. The expression level of the corresponding miRNA in the cell was regulated by miRNA mimic, and its effect on cell function was observed, so as to judge the effect of the miRNA.Results:Different concentrations and different modes of action of FA had no effect on the cell viability of hRMEC. The mRNA expression of ICAM-1, IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-β in the hypoxia group hRMEC were significantly up-regulated compared with the normal group, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=3.426, 6.011, 5.282, 6.500; P=0.027, 0.004, 0.006, 0.003); the mRNA expression of ICAM-1, IL-6, TNF-α and TNF-β in the FA intervention group hRMEC was significantly lower than that of the hypoxia group, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=9.961, 3.676, 3.613, 3.387; P=0.001, 0.021, 0.023, 0.028). There were 14 differentially expressed miRNAs between the hypoxia group and the FA intervention group, of which 9 were up-regulated genes and 5 were down-regulated genes. The predicted target genes of 4 differential miRNAs (hsa-miR-1 285-3p, hsa-miR-30d-3p, hsa-miR-3 170, hsa-miR-7 976) were all ICAM-1. The results of significant enrichment analysis of GO function showed that the functions of differential genes were mainly enriched in the process of cell development, cell differentiation and single organism development. Significant enrichment analysis of the KEGG pathway showed that the differential miRNA expression was highly enriched in the proteoglycan pathway and the cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction pathway in cancer, and the arachidonic acid metabolism pathway and the amphetamine pathway were the more obvious differential expressions. Conclusion:FA may affect the expression level of downstream ICAM-1 mRNA by regulating the expression of multiple miRNAs, thereby affecting the inflammatory state of cells after hypoxia-stimulated hRMEC.
