MicroRNAs have recently been considered as key regulators of many biological processes, such as cell proliferation, migration and apoptosis. However, the effect of miR-22 expression by targeting IL6 receptor (IL6R) in T2DM and potential molecular mechanism involved remains to be elucidated. The present study aimed to explore the regulatory mechanism of miR-22 by targeting IL6R in pancreatic beta-cells viability and apoptosis of T2DM.Methods: The expressions of miR-22, IL6R and apolipoprotein (apoA1, apoB and apoE) were examined by reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR). Pancreatic beta-cells were transiently transfected with a miR-22 mimic or si-IL6R plasmid which validated with qRT-PCR to analyze the expression of miR-22 or IL6R. Cell viability, apoptosis and protein expression levels were determined by CCK-8, flow cytometry and Western blotting, respectively.Results: The proportion of INS-1E cell apoptosis was increased in islets of diabetic rats. Furthermore, miR-22 was downregulated and IL6R was upregulated in both diabetic serum and glucose-induced INS-1E cells. miR-22 overexpression or IL6R inhibition significantly strengthened cell viability and reduced the expression of apoptosis-related proteins to suppress cell apoptosis. IL6R was demonstrated as a target gene of miR-22 which could negatively regulate IL6R expression. Moreover, phosphorylation of JAK/STAT signaling pathway was activated by miR-22 overexpression or IL6R inhibition to strengthen the viability and suppress apoptosis of INS-1E cells.Conclusion: This study indicated that miR-22 strengthened the viability and suppressed apoptosis of INS-1E cells, partly by down-regulation of IL6R through the activation of JAK/STAT signaling pathway.Keywords: IL6R, pancreatic beta-cells, type 2 diabetes mellitus, JAK/STAT signaling pathway, miR-22Wu XYu TJi NHuang YGao LShi WYan YLi HMa LWu KWu ZDove Medical PressarticleIL6RPancreatic beta-cellsType 2 diabetes mellitusJAK/STAT signaling pathwaymiR-22Specialties of internal medicineRC581-951ENDiabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity: Targets and Therapy, Vol Volume 12, Pp 1645-1657 (2019)
