    Abstract:
    The aims of this study was to investigate the influences of hsa_circ_0056558/miR-1290/CDK6 axis in ankylosing spondylitis (AS). The differentially expressed has_circ_0056558 and miR-1290 in AS tissue were analysed based on RNA-seq data and microarray data, respectively. qRT-PCR was performed for detection of relative expression levels of hsa_circ_0056558, miR-1290, CDK6, osteogenic differentiation markers (Runx2 and Osterix) and other inflammatory factors (TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6). Western blotting analysis was conducted to test the protein levels of CDK6, osteogenic differentiation markers (Runx2 and Osterix), and PI3K/AKT/NF-κB pathway-associated proteins. CCK8 assay and flow cytometry were conducted to determine cell proliferation and cell apoptotic ability, respectively. Targeted relationships were predicted by bioinformatic analysis and verified by dual-luciferase reporter assay. The differentiation of fibroblast cells was analysed by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity assay. Our findings revealed that the expression levels of both circ_0056558 and CDK6 in AS tissue were significantly higher than that in normal samples. Besides, hsa_circ_0056558 could suppress cell proliferation and differentiation by facilitating CDK6 expression and suppressing miR-1290 expression in AS. Over-expression of miR-1290 negatively regulated CDK6 expression to enhance cell proliferation. The protein levels of p-AKT, p-NF-κB p65, and p-IκBα were promoted by hsa_circ_0056558 or CDK6 over-expression while suppressed by miR-1290 up-regulation. In conclusion, our study demonstrated that hsa_circ_0056558 and CDK6 suppressed cell proliferation and differentiation while enhanced cell apoptosis by competitive binding to miR-1290 in AS, which might be possibly achieved by PI3K/AKT/NF-κB pathway, providing us novel therapeutic strategy for AS.
