MicroRNA as Crucial Regulators of Gene Expression in Estradiol-Treated Human Endothelial Cells

Abstract: Background/Aims: Estrogen signalling plays an important role in vascular biology as it modulates vasoactive and metabolic pathways in endothelial cells. Growing evidence has also established microRNA (miRNA) as key regulators of endothelial function. Nonetheless, the role of estrogen regulation on miRNA profile in endothelial cells is poorly understood. In this study, we aimed to determine how estrogen modulates miRNA profile in human endothelial cells and to explore the role of the different estrogen receptor… Show more

“…Estrogen used in this study was 17β ‐ estradiol (Sigma) and the concentration was 1 nmol/L which is the physiological concentration in premenopausal women; the treatment time is 24 hours. To study the effects of estrogen, control groups without estrogen and estrogen‐added groups were designed.…”

“…Although most of the analysed miRNA were regulated by ERα, ERβ and GPER were also found to be involved in oestradiol‐regulated miRNA expression (Vidal‐Gomez et al . ). In addition, oestradiol can regulate miRNA expression by acting directly on its biosynthesis machinery (Gupta et al .…”

“…Recently, changes in the miRNA expression profile upon exposure of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) to oestradiol revealed oestradiol‐dependent regulation of vascular function via miRNA. miR‐378 h and miR‐1244 were down‐regulated, while miR‐30b‐5p, miR‐487a‐5p, miR‐4710 and miR‐501‐3p were over‐expressed after oestradiol treatment, and bioinformatic analysis revealed that these miRNAs and their mRNA targets are involved in regulatory networks in endothelial homeostasis such as in production of NO and ROS in macrophages, ET‐1 signalling, phospholipase C signalling, protein kinase A, Rho GTPases signalling and lipid metabolism (Pérez‐Cremades, Mompeón & Vidal‐Gómez, ; Vidal‐Gomez et al ., ). One of the direct targets of oestradiol is miR‐126‐3p.…”
