Description

Application of LncRNA PEBP1P2, kit for diagnosing heart diseases and medicine for treating heart diseases
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of biology, in particular to application of LncRNA PEBP1P2, a kit for diagnosing heart diseases and a medicine for treating the heart diseases.
Background
With the improvement of living standard, the change of living habits, the aging of population and the change of environment, the prevalence rate of Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in China continuously rises. According to the calculation, the number of CVD patients in China is 2.9 million, wherein the number of CVD patients is 2.7 million, the number of cerebral apoplexy is 1300 million, the number of coronary heart disease is 1100 million, the number of pulmonary heart disease is 500 million, the number of heart failure is 450 million, the number of rheumatic heart disease is 250 million, and the number of congenital heart disease is 200 million. In China, the mortality rate of CVD is higher than that of tumors and other diseases, and the death rate is the top. CVD death accounted for approximately 43.8% of all causes of death, with 2 out of 5 deaths being CVD. Accordingly, the hospitalization costs for cardiovascular diseases have also increased rapidly, with annual growth rates far higher than GDP growth rates since 2004. The cardiovascular diseases have wide prevalence, long course of disease, large burden and high lethality disability rate. Therefore, prevention and treatment of CVD has become an important public health problem in the present society, and enhancement of prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases has been difficult and slow.
Atherosclerosis (AS) is the leading cause of CVD. AS a chronic progressive inflammatory disease, atherosclerosis is characterized by multifocal structural changes in the walls of the middle and large arteries, ultimately leading to the formation of AS plaques. The pathogenesis of the disease comprises: endothelial dysfunction and activation; monocyte and macrophage adhesion, activation and migration; local oxidative stress; lipid deposition; synthesizing an extracellular matrix; smooth muscle cell migration; the proliferation of plaque and the formation of new blood vessels. Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells (VSMCs) play an important role in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis. Smooth muscle cells of normal arteries express a range of smooth muscle cell markers including smooth muscle cell myosin heavy chain (SMHC), 22kDa smooth muscle cell lineage limiting protein (SM22 α), α -SMA, CNN1, and the like. Expression of these markers in vascular smooth muscle cells is reduced in vitro culture and atherosclerosis, and the ability to proliferate, migrate and secrete a variety of extracellular matrix proteins and cytokines is obtained. Macrophage markers and properties have also been obtained by phenotypic switching of vascular smooth muscle cells, which has long been recognized as critical for atherosclerosis. Therefore, the research on the phenotypic transformation of vascular smooth muscle cells plays an important role in preventing and treating atherosclerosis.
Long non-coding RNAs (lncrnas) are transcripts with a length of more than 200 nucleotides, have no protein coding ability, and are widely involved in various biological processes such as development, differentiation, and carcinogenesis. There is increasing evidence that long non-coding RNAs have an important role in maintaining normal physiological functions of cardiovascular system, and abnormal expression of LncRNA in cardiovascular system is closely related to occurrence and development of many cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, the LncRNA is used as a target point for treating cardiovascular diseases, and the development of related medicaments has potential clinical application value. One LncRNA can act on a plurality of targets, influence a plurality of signal paths, regulate the expression of a plurality of genes participating in the regulation and control of cardiovascular diseases, and achieve the aim of treating diseases on the whole. In addition, since LncRNA is differentially expressed in pathological states, a disease can be predicted and diagnosed by detecting its expression level.
The pathogenesis and the current treatment situation of the cardiovascular-related diseases are still in a great unknown field, and continuous exploration and research are still needed, so that the invention is particularly provided.

Each experiment was repeated a minimum of three times.
Example 1 basic Properties study of LncRNA PEBP1P2
(1) The coding potential evaluation tool CPAT shows that the coding probability of PEBP1P2 is 0.0029434043899346, and the result is shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, which indicates that the LncRNA PEBP1P2 is a non-coding transcript and has no protein coding capacity.
(2) Results as shown in fig. 2A, 2B, 2C and 2D, qRT-PCR analysis showed that PEBP1P2 was down-regulated in coronary heart disease patients, injured rat carotid artery tissue, enriched in vascular smooth muscle, rat aorta.
Example 2 study of function and mechanism of LncRNA PEBP1P2
After knockdown of PEBP1P2 by siRNA:
as shown in fig. 3, the increase in proliferation of vascular smooth muscle was suggested by CCK8 analysis.
As shown in fig. 4A and 4B, the scratch test and the Transwell results indicate enhanced migration of vascular smooth muscle.
As shown in fig. 5A and 5B, following PEBP1P2 knockdown, vascular smooth muscle contraction markers a-SMA, CNN1, SMMHC were decreased at the mRNA and protein levels, while the cycle-related protein CCDN1 was not significantly changed.
After overexpression of PEBP1P 2:
as shown in fig. 6, analysis by CCK8 suggested a decrease in vascular smooth muscle proliferation.
As shown in fig. 7A and 7B, the scratch test and the Transwell results showed a decrease in migration of vascular smooth muscle.
As shown in fig. 8A and 8B, after PEBP1P2 overexpression, vascular smooth muscle contraction markers a-SMA, CNN1, SMMHC were elevated at mRNA and protein levels, while cycle-related protein CCDN1 was not significantly changed.
As shown in FIG. 9, the expression of PEBP1P2 was reduced after PDGF-BB (20ng/mL) treatment of vascular smooth muscle cells.
As shown in fig. 10A, 10B, 10C, and 10D, overexpression of PEBP1P2 significantly reduced PDGF-BB-induced proliferation, migration, and phenotypic shift of vascular smooth muscle cells.
As shown in fig. 11A and 11B, this example found PEBP1P2 to function by binding directly to the downstream target CDK9 by bioinformatics approach and confirmed by RIP; CDK9 expression was up-regulated after knocking down PEBP1P2, CDK9 expression was down-regulated after overexpression PEBP1P 2.
As shown in fig. 12, CDK9 was upregulated in injured rat carotid artery tissue.
As shown in fig. 13A and 13B, in vascular smooth muscle, knockdown CDK9 was partially restored by knockdown of PEBP1P 2; the reduction in cell proliferation following CDK9 knockdown was partially restored by the knockdown of PEBP1P 2.
As shown in fig. 14A and 14B, cell migration was reduced following knock-down of CDK9, and migration was partially restored by knock-down of PEBP1P 2.
As shown in fig. 15A and 15B, vascular smooth muscle contraction markers a-SMA, CNN1, SMMHC were elevated at mRNA and protein levels, while cycle-related protein CCDN1 was not significantly changed following CDK9 knock-down. The profile of CDK9 increased with time after PDGF-BB treatment.
As shown in fig. 16A and 16B, knockdown CDK9 significantly reduced PDGF-BB-induced proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells.
As shown in fig. 17A and 17B, in vascular smooth muscle, overexpressed CDK9 was partially restored by knock-down of PEBP1P 2; cell proliferation is increased after overexpression of CDK9 and can be partially restored by overexpression of PEBP1P 2.
As shown in fig. 18A and 18B, migration of cells was reduced after overexpression of CDK9, and migration could be partially restored by overexpression of PEBP1P 2.
As shown in figure 19, after overexpression of CDK9, the vascular smooth muscle contraction markers a-SMA, CNN1, SMMHC were reduced at mRNA and protein levels and recovered after overexpression of PEBP1P2, while the cycle-related protein CCDN1 was not significantly changed.
In conclusion, this example identifies long-chain non-coding RNA-PEBP1P2 differentially expressed in vascular smooth muscle, and demonstrates that it inhibits proliferation, migration and phenotypic shift of vascular smooth muscle cells by negatively regulating downstream target CDK9, suggesting that PEBP1P2 is an important target for regulating vascular smooth muscle development. In view of its regulatory properties on vascular smooth muscle, PEBP1P2 is useful in the treatment of atherosclerotic diseases.
