    Abstract:
    Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) constitutes the pathological foundation of most musculoskeletal disorders of the spine. Previous studies have noted that cell proliferation is a common feature of IDD. Bioinformatics indicated that aberrantly expressed long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) were involved in the development of IDD. In this study, we aimed to investigate the function of lncRNA HOTAIR in the proliferation of human nucleus pulposus (NP) cells of IDD in vitro and further clarified its mechanism. The expression of HOTAIR and miR-130b was quantified by qRT-PCR in nucleus pulposus (NP) tissues. Furthermore, NP cells proliferation were assayed by CCK8 and Immunostaining. Dual-luciferase reporter and RIP assay were used to examine the expression of HOTAIR, PTEN, and their co-target gene miR-130b. Western blotting was used to test AKT expression. Our in vitro experiments on human normal NP cells observed that HOTAIR was significantly dysregulated in IDD. Further, HOTAIR can suppress proliferation by directly targeting miR-130b. In addition, Both HOTAIR and PTEN were confirmed to target miR-130b, and miR-130b upregulation reversed the phenomenon of ectopic expression of HOTAIR. More importantly, HOTAIR upregulation significantly reduced CyclinD1 protein expression by PTEN/AKT signaling pathway. Our findings suggest that HOTAIR may bind to miR-130b and subsequently increased CyclinD1 expression via PTEN/Akt pathway. Thereby, HOTAIR could become a potential target for the treatment of IDD.Abbreviations : IDD; intervertebral disc degeneration ncRNAs; non-coding RNAs lncRNAs; long non-coding RNAs miRNAs; microRNAs NP; nucleus pulposus qRT-PCR; quantitative reverse transcription-PCR LBP; Low back pain ORF; open reading frame HOTAIR; Hox transcript antisense intergenic RNA FAF1; Fas-associated protein factor-1 Erk; extracellular signal-regulated kinase TUG1; Taurine Up-regulated Gene 1 HIF1A hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha PI3K; phosphoinositide-3 kinase AIS; adolescent idiopathic scoliosis ECM; extracellular matrix LN;lupus nephritis CT;computed tomography MRI; magnetic resonance imaging PBS; phosphate-buffered salin PBS; phosphate-buffered salin PVDF; polyvinylidene fluoride TBST; Tris-buffered saline Tween ECL; enhanced chemiluminescence RIP; RNA immunoprecipitation.
