Protective effect and mechanism of TLR4/NF-κB pathway regulated by miR-146a in intracerebral hemorrhage model rats
Objective:To explore role of miR-146a in regulating TLR4/NF-κB pathway on inflammatory injury and neuropro-tection in intracerebral hemorrhage model rats and its possible mechanism.Methods:A total of 40 rats were selected and randomly divided into sham,model,over-expressing miR-146a adenovirus and negative virus injection groups,with 10 rats in each group.Garcia score was used for neurological function;HE staining was used to observe changes of brain tissues.ELISA was used to detect inflammatory factors levels.TLR4,NF-κB protein and gene expressions in brain tissues were detected by Western blot and RT-PCR.Results:Compared with model group,neural function score of overexpressed miR-146a adenovirus injection group was increased(P<0.05).Model group had abnormal cell morphology,edema and inflammation.Cell morphology,edema and inflammation were alleviated in overexpressed miR-146a adenovirus injection group.Inflammatory factors levels in model group were higher than sham group(P<0.05).Inflammatory factors levels in overexpressed miR-146a adenovirus injection group were lower than model group(P<0.05).TLR4,NF-κB protein and mRNA expressions in model group were increased than sham group(P<0.05).TLR4,NF-κB protein and mRNA expressions in overexpressed miR-146a adenovirus injection group were decreased than model group(P<0.05).Conclusion:miR-146a can improve neural function and reduce inflammatory injury in rats with intracerebral hemorrhage,possibly by inhibiting activation of TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway and reducing inflammatory factors levels of brain tissues.
