Abstract
- Abstract Preeclampsia is associated with the insufficient invasion of trophoblasts. NF-κB is a transcription factor in almost all mammalian cells and has been validated to be upregulated in the maternal circulation and placenta of women with preeclampsia. MiR-518a-5p is also overexpressed in pre-eclamptic placenta. The present study was designed to explore whether NF-κB can transcriptionally activate miR-518a-5p and investigate the influences of miR-518a-5p on the viability, apoptosis, migration, and invasion of HTR8/SVneo trophoblast. In situ hybridization and real time polymerase chain reaction were used to reveal miR-518a-5p expression in placenta tissues and HTR8/SVneo cells, respectively. Cell migration and invasion were detected using Transwell inserts. Our findings indicated that NF-κB p52, p50, and p65 can bind to miR-518a-5p gene promoter. MiR-518a-5p further influences the levels of p50 and p65 but not p52. HTR8/SVneo cell viability and apoptosis were not influenced by miR-518a-5p. However, miR-518a-5p represses the migratory/invasive capacities of HTR8/SVneo cell and decreased gelatinolytic activity of MMP2 and MMP9, which was reversed by an NF-κB inhibitor. To sum up, miR-518a-5p is induced by NF-κB and represses trophoblast cell migration and invasion by the NF-κB pathway.
