Abstract

Objective To explore the mechanism of microRNA (miRNA)-365a-3p affecting the function of vascular endothelial cells involved in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia (PE). Methods Primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were set as a NC group (transfected miR-365a-3p NC), a mimics group (transfected miR-365a-3p mimics) and a inhibitor group (transfected miR-365a-3p inhibitor). Logarithmic HUVECs cells were set as the blank group. The cell proliferation, migration and angiogenesis in each group were detected. Dual luciferin assay verified the targeting relationship between miR-365a-3p and downstream gene. The protein expressions of TGF-β1, Smad4 and Smad7 in each group were detected. Results Compared with the blank group and the NC group, the absorbance value and mobility of 24, 48 and 72 h were decreased (P < 0.05), the number of tubular structures per field were decreased in the mimics group (P < 0.05), the absorbance value and mobility of 24, 48 and 72 h were increased (P < 0.05), and the number of tubular structures per field were increased in the inhibitor group (P < 0.05). Dual luciferin assay showed that Smad7 was a target gene of miR-365a-3p. Compared with the blank group and the NC group, the protein expressions of TGF-β1 and Smad4 in the mimics group were increased (P < 0.05), while the protein expression of Smad7 was decreased (P < 0.05). The protein expression levels of TGF-β1 and Smad4 in the inhibitor group were decreased (P < 0.05), while the protein expression levels of Smad7 were increased (P < 0.05). Conclusion miR-365a-3p may affect the function of vascular endothelial cells by regulating the downstream TGF-β signaling pathway, and thus participate in the pathogenesis of PE.
