lncRNA ANRIL Ameliorates Oxygen and Glucose Deprivation (OGD) Induced Injury in Neuron Cells via miR-199a-5p/CAV-1 Axis.

In this study, we aim to explore the mechanism by which ANRIL exhibits protective effect. Middle cerebral artery occlusion mouse models were applied and infarction areas were assessed by TTC assay. The expression of ANRIL and miR-199a-5p were determined by qPCR. Oxygen and glucose deprivation treatment was applied to mimic in vitro ischemia injury in N-2a cells. The levels of BCL-2, BAX, MEK, ERK, CAV-1 were determined by western blot. Cell viability were assessed by MTT assay. The direct interaction among miR-199a-5p and ANRIL, miR-199a-5p and CAV-1 were demonstrated by dual Luciferase report assay. ANRIL and miR-199a-5p expression were changed in both in vivo and in vitro ischemia model. Overexpression of ANRIL or inhibition of miR-199a-5p could protect cells against ischemia induced injury by elevating cell viability through CAV-1 mediated MEK/ERK pathway. miR-199a-5p attenuated CAV-1 expression by direct targeting. ANRIL competitively interacted with miR-199a-5p in N-2a cells, leading to a de-repression of CAV-1. ANRIL protects N-2a cells against ischemia induced injury by elevated CAV-1 by competitively interacting with miR-199a-5p, thus activating MEK/ERK pathway and elevating cell viability.
