Abstract

This study assesses the mechanism of miR-146a derived from Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC) in acute lung injury. The model of ALI rats was established through endotracheal perfusion of LPS followed by analysis histological changes by HE staining. The source of BMSC was detected through flow cytometry and change of miRNA was detected through Array method. The miR-146a level in lung tissue was detected with RT-PCR and expression of Bcl-2, Bax and Capase-9 was detected with IF and Western Blot. A high expression of CD90 and CD105 was found in BMSC with negative CD11bc and CD34 level. 39 downregulated miRNAs and 20 upregulated miRNAs were found in ALI with miR-146a being the most significant. The apoptotic level induced with LPS could be restrained by miR-146a. In addition, miR-146a could upregulate Bcl-2 and downregulate Bax and Caspase-9. In conclusion, ALI could be restrained by the low expression of miR-146a.
