ABSTRACT
Differentially expressed miRNAs in the GEO profile of ischemic stroke were analyzed to clarify the specific role of microRNA-324-5p (miRNA-324-5p) in ischemic stroke and the potential mechanism. After screening out miRNA-324-5p, its level in peripheral blood of stroke patients and in vitro oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD)-induced primary rat neurons was determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Regulatory effects of miRNA-324-5p on viability, and apoptosis of OGD-induced neurons were evaluated by CCK-8 and Annexin V fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)/propidium iodide (PI) staining, respectively. Glucose uptake and caspase-3 activity in OGD-induced neurons transfected with miRNA-324-5p mimics or inhibitor were also examined. The binding of miRNA-324-5p to its target gene RAN was analyzed by dual-luciferase reporter gene assay and western blot analysis. By analyzing the data of GSE46266 profile, miRNA-324-5p expression was shown markedly lower in MCAO rats relative to controls. Identically, we also observed the downregulated miRNA-324-5p in peripheral blood of stroke patients and in vitro OGD-induced primary neurons. Overexpression of miRNA-324-5p accelerated viability, induced apoptosis and strengthened glucose uptake ability of OGD-induced neurons. Knockdown of miRNA-324-5p, conversely, obtained the opposite results. Furthermore, we confirmed the binding of miRNA-324-5p to RAN, the target gene that was negatively regulated by miRNA-324-5p. Importantly, RAN overexpression partially reversed the regulatory effect of miRNA-324-5p on viability and glucose uptake of OGD-induced neurons. miRNA-324-5p is downregulated after ischemic stroke, which aggravates the disease condition by inhibiting neuronal proliferation and glucose uptake via upregulating RAN.
