Abstract Background: Growing data have indicated that fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) and miRNAs are implicated in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This study was aimed to evaluate the function of miR-6089 in the regulation of RA-FLSs. Methods: The expression of miR-6089 was measured by quantitative real time PCR (qRT-PCR). The RA-FLSs were transfected with si-CCR4 plasmids or miR-6089 mimic, and subjected to CCK-8 and flow cytometry to analyze proliferation and apoptosis. The concentrations of MMP-1, TNF-α and IL-6 in RA-FLSs supernatant were detected using ELISA. The protein expression of caspase-3, -8 and -9 was detected using western blot.Results: The levels of miR-6089 were detected to be significantly lower in the synovial tissues and FLSs of RA than in the synovial tissues and FLSs of healthy controls. The miR-6089 up-regulation in RA-FLSs significantly inhibited the proliferation and promoted cell apoptosis accompany with an increase protein expression of caspase-3, -8 and -9. Furthermore, CCR4 was determined to directly target miR-6089, and its expression was significantly increased in the synovial tissues of RA than in the synovial tissues of healthy controls. Moreover, CCR4 overexpression effectively reversed the effect on proliferation and apoptosis induced by miR-6089 in RA-FLSs. Conclusion: Our results revealed that miR-6089 may be a potential target for RA prevention and therapy of RA.

Abstract Fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs) play a crucial role in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) pathogenesis. While miRNA (miR)-506 has been implicated in the progression of multiple diseases, its role in RA remains to be explored. The present study evaluated the function of miR-506 in the regulation of RA-FLSs. FLSs were prepared from RA and healthy synovial tissues. The expression of miR-506 was measured by quantitative real time PCR (qRT-PCR). The effects of miR-506 on RA-FLSs proliferation and apoptosis were detected by cell counting Kit-8 and flow cytometry assays, respectively. The determination of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β concentrations in RA-FLSs supernatant were done by ELISA. The levels of miR-506 were detected to be significantly lower in the synovial tissues and FLSs of RA than in the synovial tissues and FLSs of healthy controls. The miR-506 up-regulation in RA-FLSs significantly inhibited the proliferation and promoted cell cycle arrest at the G0/G1 phase. The overexpression of miR-506 induced apoptosis, along with an increase in activities of caspase-3 and -8. A target gene Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) under the direct regulation of miR-506 was identified through the luciferase assay, qRT-PCR and western blot analysis. Forced overexpression of TLR4 in the rescue experiments showed that TLR4 effectively reversed the effect on proliferation and apoptosis in miR-506-overexpressing RA-FLSs. Thus, miR-506 may be a potential target for RA prevention and therapy of RA.

Accumulating evidence have indicated that MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are key regulators in human rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The aim of this study was to explore the functional roles of miR-16-5p in proliferation, inflammation, and apoptosis of fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS). The expression of miR-16-5p and SOCS6 in FLA was detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Cell proliferation and apoptosis were measured by CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry, respectively. Luciferase reporter assay was used to verify the direct target of miR-16-5p. Western blot analysis was performed to analysis the levels of SOCS6, Bcl-2, Bax and cleaved caspase 3. miR-16-5p expression was significantly upregulated while SOCS6 level was decreased in RA-FLS compared with normal FLS. In addition, luciferase reporter assay confirmed that SOCS6 was the target of miR-16-5p. Silencing of miR-16-5p inhibited cell proliferation, releases of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-8, and induced the apoptosis. The effects of miR-16-5p silencing on RA-FLS were reversed by downregulation of SOCS6. In summary, knockdown of miR-16-5p could suppress cell proliferation and accelerate the apoptosis of RA-FLS through targeting SOCS6, which may provide a potential therapeutic target for patients with RA.

It has been reported that Notch family proteins are expressed in synovium tissue and involved in the proliferation of synoviocyte from rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The aim of this paper was to investigate whether Notch signaling mediated TNF-α-induced cytokine production of cultured fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs) from RA. Exposure of RA FLSs to TNF-α(10 ng/ml) led to increase of Hes-1, a target gene of Notch signaling, and a marked upregulation of Notch 2, Delta-like 1, and Delta-like 3 mRNA levels. Blockage of Notch signaling by aγ-secretase inhibitor (DAPT) inhibited IL-6 secretion of RA FLSs in response to TNF-αwhile treatment with recombinant fusion protein of Notch ligand Delta-like 1 promoted such response. TNF-αstimulation also induced IL-6 secretion in OA FLSs; however, the Hes-1 level remained unaffected. Our data confirm the functional involvement of Notch pathway in the pathophysiology of RA FLSs which may provide a new target for RA therapy.
