Description
Summary:[Objective:] To investigate whether long intergenic non-coding RNA-EPS (lincRNA-EPS) affects microglial inflammatory response induced by Porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharides (P.g-LPS). [Methods:] Mouse microglia cell lines (BV-2 cells) were stimulated with P.g-LPS in vitro and the expression changes of lincRNA-EPS were detected by real‐time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT‐qPCR). BV-2 cells were transfected with plasmids to construct lincRNA-EPS overexpressed BV-2 cells. The effects of lincRNA-EPS overexpression on P.g-LPS-induced migration ability of BV-2 cells were observed by cell scratch assay, and the expression changes of inflammation-related genes interleukin 1β (IL-1β), IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), arginase-1 (Arg1), nuclear factor kappa B protein family member p65 (NF-κB p65) and phosphorylated p65 (pp65) were detected by RT‐ qPCR, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and Western blotting. The subcellular localization of p65 in BV-2 cells was detected by immunofluorescence staining. [Results:] The expression of lincRNA-EPS was down-regulated after in vitro P.g-LPS induction of BV-2 cells (P<0.05). Overexpression of lincRNA-EPS significantly inhibited the P.g-LPS-induced migration of BV-2 cells and the expressions of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, and iNOS (P<0.05). In contrast, the expression of Arg1 was up-regulated at resting state (P<0.05). After overexpression of lincRNA-EPS, the expression of total p65 in BV-2 cells was not significantly changed, while the p65 in the nucleus and pp65 expression were decreased (P<0.05). [Conclusion:] This study demonstrated that lincRNA-EPS can attenuate the inflammatory response of BV-2 cells stimulated by P.g-LPS in vitro by inhibiting the phosphorylation and nuclear translocation of p65.
