KNOCKDOWN OF CIRC_0114428 ALLEVIATES LPS-INDUCED HK2 CELL APOPTOSIS AND INFLAMMATION INJURY VIA TARGETING MIR-215-5P/TRAF6/NF-ΚB AXIS IN SEPTIC ACUTE KIDNEY INJURY

ABSTRACT: Background: Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory disease that can cause multiple organ damage. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been reported to play a regulatory role in sepsis-induced acute kidney injury (AKI); however, the role of circ_0114428 has not been studied. Methods: In this study, HK2 cells were treated with different concentrations of LPS to induce cell damage, and then the expressions of circ_0114428, microRNA-215-5p (miR-215-5p), and tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6) were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), and Western blot examined the Bax and cleaved-Caspase-3 proteins. Cell proliferation was detected by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and thymidine analog 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) assay. In addition, cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry, and the levels of inflammatory factors were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results: After LPS treatment with different concentrations, we found that LPS at 10 μg/mL had the best effect on HK2 cells. Circ_0114428 was highly expressed in sepsis-AKI patients and LPS-treated HK2 cells. Knockdown of circ_0114428 restored the effects of LPS treatment on proliferation, apoptosis, and inflammatory response of HK2 cells. MiR-215-5p was a target of circ_0114428, and TRAF6 was a downstream target of miR-215-5p. Circ_0114428 regulated TRAF6 expression by sponging miR-215-5p in LPS-treated HK2 cells. Circ_0114428 regulated LPS-induced NF-κB signaling in HK2 cells by targeting miR-215-5p/TRAF6 axis. Conclusion: Circ_0114428 knockdown abolished the cell proliferation, apoptosis, and inflammatory damage in LPS-induced HK2 cells by targeting miR-215-5p/TRAF6/NF-κB.
