Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is a major contributor to lower back pain, however, the molecular and pathogenetic mechanisms underlying IDD are poorly understood. As a high-risk factor for IDD, compression stress was reported to induce apoptosis of nucleus pulposus (NP) cells and extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation during IDD progression. Circular RNA (circRNA) is a class of endogenous non-coding RNA (ncRNA) and has been reported to function in several diseases. However, whether and how circRNA regulates compression-induced damage of NP cells remains vague. Here, we aimed to investigate the key role of circRNA in compression loading-induced IDD. METHODS:We analysed the circRNA expression of three samples from compression-treated NP cells and three control samples using circRNA microarray assays and further investigated the circRNA involved in compression-induced damage of NP cells (circRNA-CIDN). We investigated the effects of circRNA-CIDN on compression-induced cell apoptosis and NP ECM degradation in vitro and ex vivo. We observed that circRNA-CIDN bound to miRNAs as a miRNA sponge based on luciferase and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assays. FINDINGS:CircRNA-CIDN was significantly downregulated in compression-treated human NP cells, as validated by circRNA microarray and qRT-PCR analysis, and overexpressing circRNA-CIDN inhibited compression-induced apoptosis and NP ECM degradation. Further studies demonstrated that circRNA-CIDN served as a sponge for miR-34a-5p, an important miRNA that enhanced compression-induced damage of NP cells via repressing the silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog 1 (SIRT1). CircRNA-CIDN was also verified to contain IDD development in an ex vivo IDD model. INTERPRETATION:Our results revealed that circRNA-CIDN binding to miR-34a-5p played an important role in mitigating compression loading-induced nucleus pulposus cell damage via targeting SIRT1, providing a potential therapeutic strategy for IDD treatment.
