description | Objectives: Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) represents a serious central nervous system emergency with high morbidity and mortality, and the basal ganglia is the most commonly affected brain region. Differentially expressed microRNAs (miRs) have recently been highlighted to serve as potential diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets for ICH. This study investigated the mechanism of miR-124-3p in microglial secondary inflammation after ICH. Methods: In this study, 48 patients with primary basal ganglia ICH and 48 healthy volunteers were selected and venous blood was collected from all patients on the second morning of admission (within 24 h of stroke onset). The expression of miR-124-3p in serum was detected by RT-qPCR. Three months after ICH, the patients were assessed by modified Rankin Scale (mRS), and the correlation between miR-124-3p expression and mRS score was analyzed by Pearson. The inflammatory response of microglia was induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to establish the cell model of microglial inflammation. miR-124-3p expression patterns were detected in the serum of ICH patients and healthy volunteers, normal microglia, and LPS-induced microglia. The miR-124-3p mimic was transfected into LPS-induced microglia, followed by measurement of the inflammatory factors, apoptosis rate, and cell viability. The target gene of miR-124-3p was predicted and verified. The expression patterns of tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6) were detected. pcDNA3.1 and pcDNA3.1-TRAF6 were transfected into LPS-induced HMC3 cells, and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor (NLR) pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) expression patterns were determined. Lastly, the effects of TRAF6 overexpression on apoptosis, cell viability, and inflammation in HMC3 cells were measured. Results: miR-124-3p was downregulated in the serum of basal ganglia ICH patients and LPS-induced microglia, and miR-124-3p expression was negatively correlated with mRS. Overexpression of miR-124-3p reduced the inflammatory factors and apoptosis rate and promoted cell activity in LPS-induced microglia. miR-124-3p was found to target TRAF6. Overexpression of TRAF6 enhanced the expression of NLRP3 inflammasome, inflammatory factors and apoptosis rate, and reduced cell viability. Conclusion: Our findings indicate that miR-124-3p repressed the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome by targeting TRAF6, thus inhibiting microglial secondary inflammation after ICH in basal ganglia. |
