ABSTRACTHirschsprung’s disease (HSCR) is a congenital disorder characterized by the absence of enteric neural crest cells (ENCCs). Non-coding RNAs including long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) have been authenticated as important regulators of biological functions. We conducted a microarray analysis and found lncRNA Rhabdomyosarcoma 2-associated transcript (RMST) was down-regulated in the stenotic segment of HSCR patients. MiR-1251 is transcribed from the intron region of RMST and was also low-expressed. When the expression of RMST or miR-1251 was reduced, the cell proliferation and migration were attenuated. However, RMST didn’t affect the expression of miR-1251 directly found in this study. Through bioinformatic analysis, transcription factor SOX2 was predicted to bind to the promoter region of miR-1251 which was confirmed by CHIP assay. Herein, we demonstrated that RMST exerted as a co-regulator of SOX2 to regulate the expression of miR-1251. Furtherly, AHNAK was proved to be the target gene of miR-1251 in this study. Taken together, we revealed the role of RMST/SOX2/miR-1251/AHNAK pathway in the occurrence of Hirschsprung’s disease and provided a potential therapeutic target for this disease.SUMMARY STATEMENTHirschsprung disease (HSCR) is characterized by a deficit in enteric neurons, however, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. This study revealed the role of lnc-RMST during the occurrence of HSCR.
