ABSTRACT
Aim:
Neurosyphilis patients exhibited significant expression of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) in peripheral blood T lymphocytes. In this study, we further clarified the role of lncRNA-ENST00000421645 in the pathogenic mechanism of neurosyphilis.Methods:
lncRNA-ENST00000421645 was transfected into Jurkat-E6-1 cells, namely lentivirus (Lv)-1645 cells. RNA pull-down assay, flow cytometry, RT-qPCR, ELISA (Neobioscience Technology Co Ltd, Shenzhen, China) and RNA immunoprecipitation chip assay were used to analyze the function of lncRNA-ENST00000421645.Results:
The expression of IFN-γ in Lv-1645 cells was significantly increased compared to that in Jurkat-E6-1 cells stimulated by phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA). Then, it was suggested that lncRNA-ENST00000421645 interacts with PCM1 protein. Silencing PCM1 significantly increased the level of IFN-γ in Lv-1645 cells stimulated by PMA.Conclusion:
This study revealed that lncRNA-ENST00000421645 mediates the production of IFN-γ by sponging PCM1 protein after PMA stimulation.
Lay abstract The mechanisms underlying Treponema pallidum (a type of bacterium that causes syphilis) invasion into the CNS have not yet been established. In this study, we further clarified the role of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) in the pathogenic process causing nerve damage. The results suggested that lncRNA-ENST00000421645 interacts with an important protein named PCM1. Suppressing the expression of PCM1 significantly increased the level of IFN-γ cytokines (substances secreted by immune cells that effect other cells) with an increased level of lncRNA-ENST00000421645 when immune cells were stimulated by phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate a specific activator of the PKC signaling enzyme involved in gene transcription pathways. This study revealed that lncRNA-ENST00000421645 mediates the production of IFN-γ by interacting with PCM1 protein.
