siRNA-Mediated Timp1 Silencing Inhibited the Inflammatory Phenotype during Acute Lung Injury
Acute lung injury is a complex cascade process that develops in response to various damaging factors, which can lead to acute respiratory distress syndrome.

Sumario: | Acute lung injury is a complex cascade process that develops in response to various damaging factors, which can lead to acute respiratory distress syndrome. Within this study, based on bioinformatics reanalysis of available full-transcriptome data of acute lung injury induced in mice and humans by various factors, we selected a set of genes that could serve as good targets for suppressing inflammation in the lung tissue, evaluated their expression in the cells of different origins during LPS-induced inflammation, and chose the tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase Timp1 as a promising target for suppressing inflammation. We designed an effective chemically modified anti-TIMP1 siRNA and showed that Timp1 silencing correlates with a decrease in the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL6 secretion in cultured macrophage cells and reduces the severity of LPS-induced acute lung injury in a mouse model. |
