lncRNA-TINCR Functions as a Competitive Endogenous RNA to Regulate the Migration of Mesenchymal Stem Cells by Sponging miR-761

Sumario: | Mounting evidences have indicated that terminal differentiation-induced lncRNA (TINCR) contributes to various cellular processes, such as proliferation, apoptosis, autophagy, migration, invasion, and metastasis. However, the function of TINCR in regulating migration of MSCs is largely unknown. In this study, the effects of TINCR on the migration of rat MSCs from the bone marrow were studied by Transwell assays and wound healing assays. Our results suggested that TINCR positively regulated migration of rMSCs. miR-761 mimics suppressed rMSC migration, whereas miR-761 inhibitor promoted migration. Target prediction analysis tools and dual-luciferase reporter gene assay identified Wnt2 as a direct target of miR-761. miR-761 could inhibit the expression of Wnt2. Further, the investigation about the function of TINCR in miR-761-induced migration of rMSCs was completed. These results demonstrated that TINCR took part in the regulation of miR-761-induced migration in rMSCs through the regulation of Wnt2 and its Wnt2 signaling pathway. Taken together, our results demonstrate that lncRNA-TINCR functions as a competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) to regulate the migration of rMSCs by sponging miR-761 which modulates the role of Wnt2. These findings provide evidence that lncRNA-TINCR has a chance to serve as a potential target for enhancing MSC homing through the miR-761/Wnt2 signaling pathway. |
