Snail regulation in fibroblast-like synoviocytes by a histone deacetylase or glycogen synthase kinase inhibitor affects cell proliferation and gene expression.
<h4>Background</h4>Snail has been linked to the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We plan to investigate the regulation of Snail in response to TNF-α, histone acetylation, and glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK)-3 inhibition in fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs).<h4>Methods&...

Sumario: | <h4>Background</h4>Snail has been linked to the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We plan to investigate the regulation of Snail in response to TNF-α, histone acetylation, and glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK)-3 inhibition in fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs).<h4>Methods</h4>FLSs from rats with collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) were collected and treated with TNF-α alone or a combination with trichostatin A (TSA), a pan-histone deacetylase inhibitor and lithium chloride (LiCl), a glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK)-3 inhibitor.<h4>Results</h4>We demonstrated for the first time that nuclear expression of Snail in FLSs from rats with CIA was correlated with the levels of extracellular TNF-α and acetylation status. Cell proliferation and viability of CIA FLSs were reduced in response to TSA treatment and short-hairpin RNA specific to Snail. LiCl treatment increased Snail and cadherin-11 (Cad-11) expression in CIA FLSs.<h4>Conclusion</h4>We suggested from this study that targeting TNF-α-histone deacetylase-Snail signaling axis or the Wnt signaling pathway in FLSs might provide therapeutic interventions for the treatment of RA in the future. |
