Objective To explore the change of the expression of microRNA-124-3p (miR-124-3p) in injured hippocampus of rats and investigate the role of miR-124-3p in neuranagenesis after traumatic brain injury (TBI). Methods The healthy male rats were randomly divided into a sham-operated group, TBI group, miR-124-3p agomir group and miR-124-3p antagomir group. TBI models were constructed by controlled cortical injury (CCI) device for all the groups except for the sham-operated group. The miR-124-3p agomir (1 nmol) was given to the miR-124-3p agomir group and miR-124-3p antagomir (1 nmol) to the miR-124-3p antagomir group via lateral ventricular injection, and equivalent solvent was given to the sham-operated group and TBI group after injury. The injured hippocampus of rats was collected at 12 hours, 1 day, 3, 7 days after injury. The real-time PCR and Western blot analysis were used to examine the expression of miR-124-3p and Delta-like 1 (DLL1) in the injured hippocampus. Immunofluorescence histochemistry was used to examine the expression levels of 5-bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU), neuronal nuclear antigen (NeuN) and nestin in the injured hippocampus. Bioinformatics software was used to predict and dual luciferase reporter assay to validate the regulatory relationship between miR-124-3p and DLL1. Results The miR-124-3p and DLL1 expression in the TBI group were significantly higher than those in the sham-operated group; compared with the TBI group, the miR-124-3p agomir group had significantly increased expression of miR-124-3p and significantly decreased expression of DLL1 in the injured hippocampus, and miR-124-3p antagomir group had significantly decreased expression of miR-124-3p and significantly increased expression of DLL1. Compared with the sham-operated group, the BrdU+NeuN+ cells and BrdU+nestin+ cells in the hippocampus significantly increased in the TBI group at 7 days after injury. The miR-124-3p agomir treatment increased the number of the BrdU+NeuN+ cells and BrdU+nestin+ cells, while the miR-124-3p antagomir treatment decreased the number of the BrdU+NeuN+ cells and BrdU+nestin+ cells. Bioinformatics analysis confirmed that DLL1 was a target of miR-124-3p. Conclusion High expression of miR-124-3p in the trauma region promotes the proliferation and differentiation of neural stem cells by targeting and inhibiting DLL1.

D015398 Signal Transduction The intracellular transfer of information (biological activation/inhibition) through a signal pathway. In each signal transduction system, an activation/inhibition signal from a biologically active molecule (hormone, neurotransmitter) is mediated via the coupling of a receptor/enzyme to a second messenger system or to an ion channel. Signal transduction plays an important role in activating cellular functions, cell differentiation, and cell proliferation. Examples of signal transduction systems are the GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID-postsynaptic receptor-calcium ion channel system, the receptor-mediated T-cell activation pathway, and the receptor-mediated activation of phospholipases. Those coupled to membrane depolarization or intracellular release of calcium include the receptor-mediated activation of cytotoxic functions in granulocytes and the synaptic potentiation of protein kinase activation. Some signal transduction pathways may be part of larger signal transduction pathways; for example, protein kinase activation is part of the platelet activation signal pathway.
