NEAT1/microRNA 339-5p/SPI1 Axis Feedback Loop Contributes to Osteogenic Differentiation in Acute Suppurative Osteomyelitis in Children

Dongsheng Zhu,Zhitao Zhu,Han Qi

Objective Long non-coding RNA plays an important role in osteogenic differentiation. Nuclear enriched abundant transcript 1 (NEAT1) has been revealed to promote osteogenic differentiation in human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs), but the underlying regulatory mechanism remains unknown in acute suppurative osteomyelitis of children.Methods Osteogenic medium (OM) was used to induce osteogenic differentiation. Quantitative real-time PCR and Western blotting were used to evaluate gene expression. The effects of NEAT1, microRNA 339–5p (miR-339-5p), and salmonella pathogenicity island 1 (SPI1) on osteogenic differentiation were assessed in vitro using alizarin red S staining assays and alkaline phosphatase activity. Interactions between NEAT1, miR-339-5p, and SPI1 were identified using immunoprecipitation, luciferase reporter assays, and chromatin immunoprecipitation.Results During osteogenic differentiation, expression of NEAT1 was up-regulated in hBMSCs, and miR-339-5p level was down during osteogenic differentiation. Knockdown of NEAT1 reduced the osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs, and down-regulation of miR-339-5p may counteract the effect of NEAT1 silencing. SPI1 was a target of miR-339-5p by luciferase reporter assay and was also a transcription factor of NEAT1 by chromatin immunoprecipitation. A positive NEAT1-miR-339-5p-SPI1 feedback loop was found to be present during osteogenic differentiation in hBMSCs.Conclusion It was the first study to reveal that the NEAT1-miR-339-5p-SPI1 feedback loop can promote osteogenic differentiation in hBMSCs and shed a new light on the role of NEAT1 during osteogenic differentiation.
