Abstract Background The oncogenic role of the newly identified lncRNA LUADT1 has been revealed in lung adenocarcinoma. It was reported that LUADT1 plays a critical role in multiple human diseases. This study was carried out to investigate the role of LUADT1 in sepsis. Methods Sixty patients with sepsis and sixty healthy volunteers were recruited for this study. Plasma samples were collected from all participants. Human primary coronary artery endothelial cells were also used in this study. The expression of Pim-1, miR-195 and LUADT1 were detected by RT-qPCR. The interaction between miR-195 and LUADT1 was determined by overexpression experiments and luciferase activity assay. Cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry. The expression of apoptosis-related protein was detected by Western blotting. Results Bioinformatics analysis revealed the potential interaction between LUADT1 and miR-195, which was confirmed by dual luciferase reporter assay. LUADT1 was downregulated in patients with sepsis. Moreover, LPS treatment downregulated the expression of LUADT1 in primary cardiac endothelial cells. Overexpression of LUADT1 and miR-195 did not affect the expression of each other in primary cardiac endothelial cells. Interestingly, overexpression of LUADT1 was found to upregulate the expression of Pim-1, a target of miR-195. In addition, it was found that overexpression of LUADT1 and Pim-1 reduced the enhancement effects of miR-195 on LPS-induced cardiac endothelial cell apoptosis. Conclusion In summary, LUADT1 may protect cardiac endothelial cells against apoptosis in sepsis by regulating the miR-195/Pim-1 axis.

Pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) is an intrinsic antiangiogenic factor and a potential therapeutic agent. Previously, we discovered the mechanism of PEDF-induced apoptosis of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) as sequential induction/activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ), and p53. In the present study, we investigated the signaling role of cytosolic calcium-dependent phospholipase A2-α (cPLA2-α) to bridge p38 MAPK and PPAR-γ activation. PEDF induced cPLA2-α activation in HUVECs and in endothelial cells in chemical burn-induced vessels on mouse cornea. The cPLA2-α activation is evident from the phosphorylation and nuclear translocation of cPLA2-α as well as arachidonic acid release and the cleavage of PED6, a synthetic PLA2 substrate. Such activation can be abolished by p38 MAPK inhibitor. The PEDF-induced PPAR-γ activation, p53 expression, caspase-3 activity, and apoptosis can be abolished by both cPLA2 inhibitor and small interfering RNA targeting cPLA2-α. Our observation not only establishes the signaling role of cPLA2-α but also for the first time demonstrates the sequential activation of p38 MAPK, cPLA2-α, PPAR-γ, and p53 as the mechanism of PEDF-induced endothelial cell apoptosis.
