MicroRNA-328 is involved in wound repair process in human bronchial epithelial cells.
Respiratory Physiology & Neurobiology 2017 August
Our aim was to investigate the role of microRNA on epithelial wound repair by global microRNA silencing. We have also analysed the influence of five miRNAs (miR-328, miR-342, miR-411, miR-609, miR-888, previously identified) on wound repair in 16HBE14o-bronchial epithelial cell line. Cells were transfected with siRNAs against human DROSHA and DICER1 or miRNA mimics or inhibitors. Wounding assays were performed and the cells were observed using time-lapse microscopy. The area of damage was calculated at chosen time points, followed by data analysis. Cells with silenced global miRNA expression showed a significantly slower repair rate compared to the control cells (p=0.001). For miR-328, we observed significantly delayed repair in cells transfected with the inhibitor compared to control (p=0.02). Global microRNA silencing significantly decreased the repair rate of airway epithelial cells in vitro, indicating an important role of miRNA in the regulation of wound repair and that miR-328, possibly involved in actin pathway, may be a potent modifier of this process.
