Project description:The present study focused on establishing the role of microRNA-139-5p (miRNA-139-5p) in the phenotypic expression of basal tone in rat internal anal sphincter (IAS) vs. lack of tone in truly phasic smooth muscle of anococcygeus (ASM), via RhoA-associated kinase (RhoA/ROCK2).

Project description:A comprehensive –omic, computational, and physiological approach was employed to examine the (previously unexplored) role of microRNAs (miRNAs) as regulators of IAS smooth muscle contractile phenotype and basal tone. MicroRNA profiling, genome wide expression, validation and network analyses were employed to assess changes in mRNA and miRNA expression in IAS smooth muscles from young vs. aging rats. Multiple miRNAs, including rno-miR-1, rno-miR-340-5p, rno-miR-185, rno-miR-199a-3p, rno-miR-200c, rno-miR-200b, rno-miR-31, rno-miR-133a and rno-miR-206 were found to be up-regulated in aging IAS. qRT-PCR confirmed the up-regulated expression of these miRNAs and down regulation of multiple, predicted targets (Eln, Col3a1, Col1a1, Zeb2, Myocd, SRF, Smad1, Smad2, RhoA/ROCK2, Fn1, Sm22-v2, Klf4, and Acta2) involved in regulation of SM contractility. Subsequent studies demonstrated an aging-associated increase in the expression of miR-133a, corresponding decreases in RhoA, ROCK2, MYOCD, SRF and SM22α protein expression, RhoA-signaling, and a decrease in basal and agonist (U-46619 (thromboxane A2 analog))-induced increase in the IAS tone. Moreover, in vitro transfection of miR-133a caused a dose-dependent increase of IAS tone in strips, which was reversed by anti-miR-133a. Lastly, in vivo perianal injection of anti-miR-133a reversed the loss of IAS tone associated with age. This work establishes the important regulatory effect of miRNA-133a on basal and agonist-stimulated IAS tone. Moreover, reversal of age-associated loss of tone via anti-miR delivery strongly implicates miR dysregulation as a causal factor in the aging-associated decrease in IAS tone, and suggests miR-133a is feasible therapeutic target in aging-associated rectoanal incontinence.

Project description:High-throughput sequencing technique was used to screen the miRNAs which has potential role in the aging delaying effect of olmesartan on human smooth muscle cells. We cultured human vascular smooth muscle cells and used the third to fifth generation cells as unaging cells (Zhengchang-1,-2,-3), natural culture to passage 10 to 15 as aging group samples (Bo-1,-2,-3), and cells treated with olmesartan for the same time as aging group cells as treatment group (bo-ao-1,-2,-3). After collecting cells of each group, RNA was extracted and reversed. After the quality inspection was qualified, miRNA sequencing was carried out. Finally, we confirmed that the miRNA expression profile of human vascular smooth muscle cells changed after olmesartan treatment. This study confirmed that miRNA plays a potential role in the aging process of human smooth muscle cells and that olmesartan may play a role in delaying aging by regulating miRNA expression profile.

Project description:Sympathetic neurons of SCG (Superior Cervical Ganglia) send axonal projections either along the external carotid arteries to innervate the salivary glands, or along the internal carotid arteries to the lacrimal and pineal glands, the eye, blood vessels and skin of the head, and the mucosa of the oral and nasal cavities. Previous studies using Wnt1Cre and R26R have defined the neural crest and mesodermal origins of vascular smooth muscle in the heart outflow tract and great vessels, although not specifically of the segments that are relevant for the projections of the SCG neurons. The third pharyngeal arch arteries are lined by neural crest-derived smooth muscle, and consequently, their derivatives, including the entirety of the external carotid arteries and only the base of the internal carotid arteries, also have a neural crest origin. In contrast, the dorsal aortae are lined by smooth muscle that is mesodermal in origin, and as a result, the internal carotid arteries from just above their origination from the common carotid arteries have a mesoderm-derived smooth muscle layer. To address the possibility that guidance cues for SCG neurons are selectively expressed by the external carotid vs. the internal carotid arteries, we isolated these segments of the vasculature from mouse embryos at E13.5 and extracted RNA to screen microarrays for differentially expressed genes. Experiment Overall Design: Vascular segments were isolated from 22 embryos at E13.5, pooled and extracted RNA for microarray screen. Total RNA samples from the internal or the external carotid arteries were subjected for two-round amplification to synthesize cRNA to probe microarray. Neither experimental nor technical replicate was made for this experiment.

Project description:Muscle-specific ablation of miR-1/133a expression leads to increased expression of miR-1/133a target genes at RNA and/or protein level. MEF2A is a direct target of miR-1/133a that is upregulated at the protein level and subsequently activates the expression of the Dlk1-Dio3 cluster in skeletal muscle of miR-1/133a deficient mice. miRNAs encoded in the Dlk1-Dio3 cluster directly repress the expression of multiple genes important for mitochondrial function. The study includes transcriptome analysis of tibialis anterior muscle after muscle-specific deletion of miR-1/133a as well as transcriptome analysis of tibialis anterior muscle after muscle-specific overexpression of Mef2A.
