Abstract

Brachial plexus root avulsion (BPRA) is a type of injury that leads to motor function loss as a result of motoneurons (MNs) degeneration. Here we identified that the reduced expression of rat miR-137-3p in the ventral horn of spinal cord was associated with MNs death. However, the pathophysiological role of miR-137-3p in root avulsion remains poorly understood. We demonstrated that the calcium-activated neutral protease-2 (calpain-2) was a direct target gene of miR-137-3p with miR-137-3p binding to the 3'-untranslated region of calpain-2. Silencing of calpain-2 suppressed the expression of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS), a primary source of nitric oxide (NO). After avulsion 2 weeks, up-regulation of miR-137-3p in the spinal cord reduced calpain-2 levels and nNOS expression inside spinal MNs, resulting in an amelioration of the MNs death. These events provide new insight into the mechanism by which upregulation of miR-137-3p can impair MN survival in the BPRA.

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.
