Long noncoding RNA Malat1 is a potent autophagy inducer protecting brain microvascular endothelial cells against oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation-induced injury by sponging miR-26b and upregulating ULK2 expression.

Abstract:

:Brain microvascular endothelial cell (BMEC) injury induced by ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) is the initial stage of blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption, which results in a poor prognosis in ischemic stroke patients. Autophagy has been shown to have protective effects on BMECs against cerebral ischemic insults. However, molecular mechanism of BMEC autophagy during I/R is unclear. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as new factors involved in cell autophagy. LncRNA Malat1 is one of the most highly upregulated I/R or OGD/R-responsive endothelial lncRNA and plays a protective role in BMECs against cerebral ischemic insults. Oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) is used to mimic I/R injury in vitro. Based on these findings, we hypothesized that Malat1 might play a protective role by enhancing BMEC autophagy. We performed GFP-LC3 puncta formation, LC3 conversion, p62 expression, and cell death assays, and the results were consistent with our hypothesis that Malat1 promoted BMEC autophagy and survival under OGD/R condition. We further explored the molecular mechanisms by which Malat1 exerted regulatory effects, and found that Malat1 served as an endogenous sponge to downregulate miR-26b expression by binding directly to miR-26b. Furthermore, Malat1 overturned the inhibitory effect of miR-26b on BMEC autophagy and survival, which involved in promoting the expression of miR-26b target ULK2. Collectively, our study illuminated a new Malat1-miR-26b-ULK2 regulatory axis in which Malat1 served as a competing endogenous RNA by sponging miR-26b and upregulating ULK2 expression, thereby promoting BMEC autophagy and survival under OGD/R condition.
