Preeclampsia is a pregnancy complication classified by new onset of elevated blood pressure and proteinuria after 20 weeks of gestation. During preeclampsia, extra villous trophoblasts fail to adequately invade the myometrial spiral arteries, leading to incomplete and impaired vessel transformation and initiating or aggravating preeclampsia. Although NF-κB and proinflammatory cytokines have been reported to be related to trophoblast dysfunction, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Herein, we demonstrated the miR-138/RELA axis modulating the migratory ability, and invasive ability of HTR-8/SVneo and JEG-3 cells, as well as the inflammatory factor levels in response to LPS stimulation. miR-138 expression was upregulated in preeclampsia placenta and LPS-stimulated HTR-8/SVneo and JEG-3 cell lines. miR-138 overexpression rescued the migratory and invasive ability of HTR-8/SVneo and JEG-3 cells inhibited by LPS stimulation, and decreased LPS-induced TNF-α and IL-6 levels. By binding the 3'-UTR of RELA, miR-138 negatively regulated p65 expression. The silencing of p65 also improved LPS-induced HTR-8/SVneo and JEG-3 cell dysfunction and TNF-α and IL-6 levels. More importantly, p65 overexpression partially reversed the functions of miR-138 overexpression upon both cells, indicating that miR-138 exerted its biological effects through targeting RELA. In conclusion, miR-138 improves LPS-induced inflammation and oxidative stress on trophoblasts through targeting RELA and affecting NF-κB signaling. The miR-138/RELA axis might be involved in preeclampsia pathogenesis, which requires further in vivo and clinical researches. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
