ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
To evaluate the role of microRNA564 (miR-564) in the development of hypertrophic scar and investigate the possible mechanism of this process.METHODS:
The hypertrophic scar (HS) tissues and adjacent normal skin (NS) tissues were selected from 10 patients. The fibrosis-related proteins were detected via hematoxylin eosin (HE) staining, Masson staining and immunohistochemical detection. The relative expression difference of miR-564 in NS tissues and HS tissues was detected via reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The protein expression difference of transforming growth factor-ß1 (TGF-ß1) in NS tissues and HS tissues was detected via Western blotting. Moreover, the hypertrophic scar fibroblast (HSF) cells were isolated from HS tissues and divided into four groups according to different treatmentmethods:
blank control group, scramble-transfected negative control group, miR-564 inhibitor-transfected miR-564 inhibitor group, and miR-564 plasmid-transfected miR-564 mimic group. The expressions of TGF-ß1 in blank control group, scramble group, miR-21 mimic group and miR-21 inhibitor group were detected via RT-PCR and Western blotting.RESULTS:
MiR-564 was highly expressed in HSF cells. Compared with that of blank control group, the expression of TGF-ß1 was down-regulated through inhibiting the miR-564 expression, thus inhibiting the activation and proliferation of HSF cells. However, the overexpression of miR-564 achieved the opposite results.CONCLUSIONS:
Up-regulated mir-564 promoted the development of hypertrophic scar via enhancing the expression of TGF-ß1. MiR-564 may be a potential novel molecular target for the treatment of hypertrophic scarring.
