Coordinated Regulation of UGT2B15 Expression by Long Noncoding RNA LINC00574 and hsa-miR-129-5p in HepaRG Cells.

ABSTRACT: Recent studies have shown that microRNAs and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) regulate the expression of drug metabolizing enzymes (DMEs) in human hepatic cells and that a set of DMEs, including UDP glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 2B15, is down-regulated dramatically in liver cells by toxic acetaminophen (APAP) concentrations. In this study we analyzed mRNA, microRNA, and lncRNA expression profiles in APAP-treated HepaRG cells to explore noncoding RNA-dependent regulation of DME expression. The expression of UGT2B15 and lncRNA LINC00574 was decreased in APAP-treated HepaRG cells. UGT2B15 levels were diminished by LINC00574 suppression using antisense oligonucleotides or small interfering RNA. Furthermore, we found that hsa-miR-129-5p suppressed LINC00574 and decreased UGT2B15 expression via LIN
