The role of miRNA-624-5p in congenital hypothyroidism and its molecular mechanism by targeting SIRT1.
Abstract
Background Accumulating reports evidenced that congenital hypothyroidism (CH) is a kind of endocrine diseases caused by thyroid hormone imperfection. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) were confirmed to exhibit protective functions in CH progression. However, the functions and latent mechanism of microRNA-624-5p (miR-624-5p) in CH remains unknown.Objective This report was designed to illustrate the potential molecular mechanisms of miR-624-5p on CH.Methods Rats were induced by 50 mg/day propylthiouracil to conduct CH models. Free thyroxine (fT4) and thyroid-Stimulating hormone (TSH) concentrations were measured to confirm CH model conduction. The direct target of miR-624-5p was predicted and verified by Starbase and dual luciferase reporter assay. Besides, the levels of miR-624-5p and sirtuin1 (SIRT1) in hippocampus or hippocampal neuronal cells were assessed using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) or Western blot assays. Then CH rat behaviors were evaluated using open field test (OFT) and forced swim test (FST). Furthermore, neuronal cells viability and apoptosis were checked using 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) and flow cytometry.Results qRT-PCR assay suggested that miR-624-5p was up-regulated and SIRT1 was low-expressed in hippocampus tissues of CH rats. SIRT1 was a direct target of miR-624-5p. MiR-624-5p inhibitor signally enhanced fT4 levels and reduced TSH levels in the plasma of CH rats, and improved CH rat depressive behaviors by targeting SIRT1. Moreover, our data also revealed that miR-624-5p inhibitor increased cell viability and reduced apoptotic neuronal cells, which was reversed by silencing of SIRT1.Conclusions Taken together, this research demonstrated that miR-624-5p serves as a promising target for CH treatment.

In MMD, miRNAs are associated with depression caused by various illnesses and with response to specific treatments such as isoliquiritin, oligonucleotides, or purinergic receptor.
“In MMD, it has been reported that miRNAs are not only involved in the pathogenesis of the disease [17], but are also associated with depression caused by various illnesses [18, 19], as well as the response to specific treatments such as isoliquiritin [20], oligonucleotides [21], or purinergic receptor [22], confirming their potential as disease monitoring biomarkers.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
