The Reaction Pathway of miR-30c-5p Activates Lipopolysaccharide Promoting the Course of Traumatic and Hemorrhagic Shock Acute Lung Injury

Acute lung injury (ALI) is an acute hypoxic respiratory failure caused by diffuse inflammatory injury in alveolar epithelial cells during severe infection, trauma, and shock. Among them, trauma/hemorrhagic shock (T/HS) is the main type of indirect lung injury. Despite a great number of clinical studies, indirect factor trauma/hemorrhagic shock to the function and the mechanism in acute lung injury is not clear yet. Therefore, it is still necessary to carry on relevant analysis in order to thoroughly explore its molecular and cellular mechanisms and the pathway of disease function. In our research, we aimed to identify potential pathogenic genes and do modular analysis by downloading disease-related gene expression profile data. And our dataset is from the NCBI-GEO database. Then, we used the Clusterprofiler R package, GO function, and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis to analyze the core module genes. In addition, we also identified key transcription factors and noncoding RNAs. Based on the high degree of interaction of potential pathogenic genes and their involved functions and pathways, we identified 17 dysfunction modules. Among them, up to 9 modules significantly regulate the response to bacterial-derived molecules, and the response to lipopolysaccharide and other related functional pathways that mediate disease development. In addition, miR-290, miR-30c-5p, miR-195-5p, and miR-1-3p-based ncRNA and Jun, Atf1, and Atf3-based transcription factors have a total of 80 transcription drivers for functional modules. In summary, this study confirmed that miR-30c-5p activates lipopolysaccharide response pathway to promote the pathogenesis of ALI induced by hemorrhagic shock. This result can be an important direction for further research on related deepening diseases such as acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). It further provides a piece of scientific medical evidence for revealing the pathogenic principle and cure difficulty of acute lung injury and also provides important guidance for the design of therapeutic strategies and drug development.
