Abstract：
:Our recent researches have identified increased expression of miR-21-5p in rats brain following traumatic brain injury (TBI), which protected against blood-brain barrier (BBB) damage. To further study the mechanism underlying the role of miR-21-5p on alleviating BBB damage after TBI, we performed the scratch injury model on cultured brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMVECs), which formed the microvascular endothelial barrier - an integral part of the highly specialized BBB. The expression level of miR-21-5p in BMVECs was observed to be increased after scratch injury, and could be further up-regulated by transfecting miR-21-5p mimics. We found that up-regulation of miR-21-5p level in BMVECs can alleviate endothelial barrier damage and loss of tight junction proteins. To further investigate the mechanism of this protective effect, we evaluated the impact of miR-21-5p on inflammation and apoptosis in injured BMVECs. On one hand, miR-21-5p suppressed inflammation by regulating the expression of inflammatory cytokines and NF-kB signaling. On the other hand, miR-21-5p inhibited cellular apoptosis by regulating the expression of apoptosis factors and Akt signaling. In addition, we also detected the activity of Ang-1/Tie-2 axis (associated with BBB stabilization) in BMVECs after scratch injury, and found that miR-21-5p can promote its activation. Taken together, miR-21-5p alleviates leakage of injured brain microvascular endothelial barrier through suppressing inflammation and apoptosis, while impacting the activities of NF-kB, Akt and Ang-1/Tie-2 signaling. Thus, miR-21-5p could be a potential therapeutic target for interventions of BBB damage after TBI.
