MiR-4298 and lncKRTAP5-6-3 regulated Cathepsin D expression through ERK-MAPK signaling pathway in chronic UVB-damaged HaCaT cells

ObjectiveMiRNAs and lncRNAs are important regulators in the process of skin photoaging. In this study, we investigated the expression changes and interactions between miR4298 and lncKRTAP5-6-3 in chronically UVB-damaged human keratinocyte cell line (HaCaT) cells and explored miR4298-MAPK/ERK signali...

description ObjectiveMiRNAs and lncRNAs are important regulators in the process of skin photoaging. In this study, we investigated the expression changes and interactions between miR4298 and lncKRTAP5-6-3 in chronically UVB-damaged human keratinocyte cell line (HaCaT) cells and explored miR4298-MAPK/ERK signaling pathway-Cathepsin D-lncKRTAP5-6-3 mechanisms in photoaging cells.MethodsHaCaT cells were irradiated with 12 mJ/cm2 UVB once a day for 7 days. miR-4298 mimics and miR-4298 inhibitors were transfected into HaCaT cells by lipo3000 transfection reagent, and the HaCaT cells were divided into three groups: blank control group; UVB-damaged group; and UVB damage+miR-4298 regulation (overexpression or inhibition) group. The expression levels of miR4298 and lncKRTAP5-6-3 were quantitatively analyzed using RT-PCR, while the expression of Cathepsin D and MAPK/ERK signaling pathway proteins was detected using Western blot.ResultsAfter 7 consecutive days of UVB irradiation, the expression of miR-4298 decreased by 0.64 ± 0.06 (P < 0.001) compared to the un-irradiated HaCaT cells, and the expression of the KRTAP5-6-3 decreased by 0.80 ± 0.13 (P < 0.001) compared to the control group. The expression of p-ERK signaling was increased by 0.9437 ± 0.1186 (P < 0.0001), and Cathepsin D was decreased by 0.6163 ± 0.075 (P < 0.0001). In HaCaT cells transfected with miR-4298 mimics and then irradiated by UVB for 7 days, the expression of lncKRTAP5-6-3 was increased to 0.5114 ± 0.1438 (P < 0.05)-fold, and the phosphorylation level of ERK signaling was decreased by 0.3880 ± 0.1185 (P < 0.01), while Cathepsin D expression was increased by 0.2617 ± 0.0749 (P < 0.0001) compared to the UVB-damaged group. In HaCaT cells transfected with miR-4298 inhibitors and then irradiated by UVB for 7 days, lncKRTAP5-6-3 was decreased by 0.1697 ± 0.1383, the phosphorylation level of ERK signaling was increased by 1.096 ± 0.7836 (P < 0.05), while Cathepsin D expression was decreased by 0.05197 ± 0.24827 compared to the UVB-damaged group.ConclusionThe synergistic effects of miR4298 and lncKRTAP5-6-3 play important roles in chronic UVB-damaged HaCaT cells by regulating the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway and Cathepsin D expression. This study presents novel targets for intervening in chronic ultraviolet damage (photoaging) skin and UV-related dermatoses.
