Background Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a severe brain disorder with currently limited effective treatments. This study aims to explore the role of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification and associated regulatory factors in I/R to identify potential therapeutic targets. Methods We utilized a middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) rat model and SH-SY5Y cells subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) to assess m6A levels and investigate the impact of METTL3 overexpression on long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) CRNDE expression. The effects of silencing lncRNA CRNDE on the interaction between YTHDC1 and ATG10 mRNA, as well as the stability of ATG10 mRNA, were evaluated. Additionally, apoptosis rates, pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory factor levels, ATG10 expression, and autophagic activity were analyzed to determine the effects of METTL3 . The reverse effects of YTHDC1 overexpression were also examined. Results MCAO rats and OGD/R-treated SH-SY5Y cells exhibited reduced m6A levels. METTL3 overexpression significantly inhibited lncRNA CRNDE expression. Silencing lncRNA CRNDE mitigated OGD/R-induced apoptosis and inflammation in SH-SY5Y cells, while enhancing autophagy and stabilizing ATG10 mRNA. METTL3 overexpression decreased cell apoptosis, reduced the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and increased IL-10 secretion. Furthermore, METTL3 overexpression upregulated ATG10 expression and promoted autophagy. Conversely, lncRNA CRNDE overexpression negated these effects. Conclusion The inhibition of lncRNA CRNDE affects the interaction between YTHDC1 and ATG10 mRNA and stabilizes ATG10 mRNA, mediated by METTL3 overexpression. These findings suggest that targeting lncRNA CRNDE to reduce apoptosis, inhibit inflammation, increase ATG10 expression, and enhance autophagy could offer new therapeutic strategies for I/R injury.

Objective Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a fatal cerebrovascular disease. This study explored the intrinsic relationship between ICH and lncRNA CRNDE. Methods Injecting the lentiviral interference vector (sh-CRNDE) into the ICH mice (induced by collagenase). Subsequently, the neurological deficits were evaluated through Garcia scoring, the corner turn test, and the water maze test. The levels of CRNDE and inflammatory factors in the brain tissue were detected by RT-qPCR and ELISA, respectively. In vitro experiments, microglia and neuronal cells were respectively cultured with hemoglobin and Hemin. Subsequently, the level of M1 polarization markers was detected by RT-qPCR. In neuronal cells, the proliferation activity was evaluated by CCK-8. The apoptosis level was comprehensively assessed based on the results of flow cytometry and the level of LDH. Finally, the effects of inhibiting the CRNDE/miR-152-3p axis on ROCK1 and the phenotype of ICH were re-verified in animal models and cell models. Results In ICH mice, inhibition of CRNDE prevented the neurological deficits and neuroinflammation. Blocking CRNDE also significantly alleviated the M1 polarization of microglia and the apoptosis of neuronal cells. CRNDE sponges miR-152-3p through the ceRNA mechanism and regulates ROCK1. Inhibition of miR-152-3p or overexpression of ROCK1 weakens the inhibitory effect of sh-CRNDE on neurological deficits, M1 polarization, and the apoptosis of neurons. Moreover, in cell models, inhibition of ROCK1 showed the same protective effect as CRNDE downregulation. Conclusion In ICH, CRNDE upregulates ROCK1 by adsorbing miR-152-3p. This regulatory axis exacerbates neuroinflammation and neurofunctional disorders.

Activated neutrophil-derived exosomes reportedly contribute to the proliferation of airway smooth muscle cells (ASMCs), thereby aggravating the airway wall remodeling during asthma; however, the specific mechanism remains unclear. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-EXO and si-CRNDE-EXO were extracted from the media of human neutrophils treated with LPS and LPS + si-CRNDE (a siRNA targets long non-coding RNA CRNDE), respectively. Human ASMCs were co-cultured with LPS-EXO or si-CRNDE-EXO, and cell viability, proliferation and migration were measured. The interplay of colorectal neoplasia differentially expressed (CRNDE), inhibitor of nuclear factor kappa B kinase subunit beta (IKKβ) and nuclear receptor subfamily 2 group C member 2 (TAK1) was explored using RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) and Co-IP assays. A mouse model of asthma was induced using ovalbumin. CRNDE was upregulated in LPS-EXO and successfully transferred from LPS-treated neutrophils to ASMCs through exosome. Mechanically, CRNDE loaded in LPS-EXO reinforced TAK1-mediated IKKβ phosphorylation, thereby activating the nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) pathway. Functionally, silencing CRNDE in LPS-EXO, an IKKβ inhibitor, and an NF-κB inhibitor all removed the upregulation of cell viability, proliferation and migration induced by LPS-EXO in ASMCs. In the end, the in vivo experiment demonstrated that CRNDE knockdown in neutrophils effectively reduced the thickness of bronchial smooth muscle in a mouse model for asthma. Activated neutrophils-derived CRNDE was transferred to ASMCs through exosomes and activated the NF-κB pathway by enhancing IKKβ phosphorylation. The latter promoted the proliferation and migration of ASMCs and then contributed to airway remodeling in asthma.
