Parathyroid hormone (PTH) regulates the expression of bone remodeling genes by enhancing the activity of Runx2 in osteoblasts. p300, a histone acetyltransferase, acetylated Runx2 to activate the expression of its target genes. PTH stimulated the expression of p300 in rat osteoblastic cells. Increasing studies suggested the potential of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), such as microRNAs (miRNAs) and circular RNAs (circRNAs), in regulating gene expression under both physiological and pathological conditions. In this study, we hypothesized that PTH regulates Runx2 activity via ncRNAs-mediated p300 expression in rat osteoblastic cells. Bioinformatics and experimental approaches identified PTH-upregulation of miR-130b-5p and circ_CUX1 that putatively target p300 and miR-130b-5p, respectively. An antisense-mediated knockdown of circ_CUX1 was performed to determine the sponging activity of circ_CUX1. Knockdown of circ_CUX1 promoted miR-130b-5p activity and reduced p300 expression, resulting in decreased Runx2 acetylation in rat osteoblastic cells. Further, bioinformatics analysis identified the possible signaling pathways that regulate Runx2 activity and osteoblast differentiation via circ_CUX1/miR-130b-5p/p300 axis. The predicted circ_CUX1/miR-130b-5p/p300 axis might pave the way for better diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for bone-related diseases. |
