A novel LncRNA SPIRE1/miR-181a-5p/PRLR axis in mandibular bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells regulates the Th17/Treg immune balance through the JAK/STAT3 pathway in periodontitis.

ABSTRACT: Periodontitis is a microbial-related chronic inflammatory disease associated with imbalanced differentiation of Th17 cells and Treg cells. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) possess wide immunoregulatory properties. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) contribute to the immunomodulation in the pathological mechanisms of inflammatory diseases. However, critical lncRNAs/miRNAs involved in immunomodulation of mandibular BM-MSCs largely remain to be identified. Here, we explored the molecular mechanisms behind the defective immunomodulatory ability of mandibular BM-MSCs under the periodontitis settings. We found that mandibular BM-MSCs from P. gingivalis-induced periodontitis mice had significantly reduced expression of LncRNA SPIRE1 than that from norm
