MiR‐485‐3p modulates neural stem cell differentiation and proliferation via regulating TRIP6 expression

Recent references have showed crucial roles of several miRNAs in neural stem cell differentiation and proliferation. However, the expression and role of miR‐485‐3p remains unknown. In our reference, we indicated that miR‐485‐3p expression was down‐regulated during NSCs differentiation to neural and astrocytes cell. In addition, the TRIP6 expression was up‐regulated during NSCs differentiation to neural and astrocytes cell. We carried out the dual‐luciferase reporter and found that overexpression of miR‐485‐3p decreased the luciferase activity of pmirGLO‐TRIP6‐wt but not the pmirGLO‐TRIP6‐mut. Ectopic expression of miR‐485‐3p decreased the expression of TRIP6 in NSC. Ectopic miR‐485‐3p expression suppressed the cell growth of NSCs and inhibited nestin expression of NSCs. Moreover, elevated expression of miR‐485‐3p decreased the ki‐67 and cyclin D1 expression in NSCs. Furthermore, we indicated that miR‐485‐3p reduced proliferation and induced differentiation of NSCs via targeting TRIP6 expression. These data suggested that a crucial role of miR‐485‐3p in self‐proliferation and differentiation of NSCs. Thus, altering miR‐485‐3p and TRIP6 modulation may be one promising therapy for treating with neurodegenerative and neurogenesis diseases.
