    Abstract:
    Long noncoding RNA plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 (PVT1) has been identified to implicate in the progression of osteoarthritis (OA). However, the mechanism underlying PVT1 in OA development remains largely unknown. This study aimed to investigate the effect of PVT1 on interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β)-induced injury in chondrocytes and explore potential mechanism. The cartilage tissues from 25 OA patients and normal controls were collected. Human transformed chondrocytes C28/I2 were stimulated by IL-1β. The levels of PVT1, microRNA (miR)-27b-3p, and tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 3 (TRAF3) were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction or western blot. IL-1β-induced injury was investigated by cell viability, apoptosis, autophagy and inflammatory response using 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide, flow cytometry, western blot and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay, respectively. The target association between miR-27b-3p and PVT1 or TRAF3 was explored by luciferase reporter, RNA immunoprecipitation and RNA pull-down assays. We found that PVT1 expression was enhanced in OA patients and IL-1β-treated C28/I2 cells. Silence of PVT1 promoted cell viability and autophagy but suppressed apoptosis and inflammatory response in IL-1β-treated C28/I2 cells. miR-27b-3p was confirmed as a target of PVT1 and its deficiency reversed the suppressive effect of PVT1 knockdown on IL-1β-induced injury. TRAF3 was a target of miR-27b-3p and attenuated the effect of miR-27b-3p on IL-1β-induced injury in C28/I2 cells. Moreover, TRAF3 expression was positively regulated by PVT1 via sponging miR-27b-3p. Collectively, knockdown of PVT1 increased cell viability and autophagy but inhibited apoptosis and inflammatory response in chondrocytes treated by IL-1β via up-regulating miR-27b-3p and down-regulating TRAF3.
