The aims of the present study were to investigate the effect of E50K optineurin (OPTN) mutation on RGC5 cells and to define the role of microRNA9 (miR9) in this system. Transfected RGC5 cells were used to evaluate the effects of E50K OPTN on the expression of miR9 and subsequent disruption of RGC5 cell apoptosis was analyzed using western blotting. The results showed that the expression of E50K OPTN was associated with a marked reduction in the levels of miR9 in the E50K OPTNtransfected RGC5 cells. The E50K OPTNdependent reductions in miR9 led to increased expression of the transcriptional repressor, RE1silencing transcription factor and decreased the expression of brainderived neurotrophic factor. Thus, E50K OPTN may disrupt the expression of miR9, suggesting a potential mechanism by which E50K OPTN mutation may lead to RGC5 cell apoptosis.
