ADAR1 Isoforms Regulate <i>Let-7d</i> Processing in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

Double-stranded RNA adenosine deaminase 1 (ADAR1) is significantly down-regulated in fibroblasts derived from Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) patients, and its overexpression restored levels of <i>miRNA-21</i>, <i>PELI1</i>, and <i>SPRY2</i>. There are two ADA...

description Double-stranded RNA adenosine deaminase 1 (ADAR1) is significantly down-regulated in fibroblasts derived from Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) patients, and its overexpression restored levels of <i>miRNA-21</i>, <i>PELI1</i>, and <i>SPRY2</i>. There are two ADAR1 isoforms in humans, ADAR1-p110 and ADAR1-p150, generated by an alternative promoter. <i>Let-7d</i> is considered an essential microRNA in Pulmonary Fibrosis (PF). In silico analysis revealed <i>COL3A1</i> and <i>SMAD2</i>, proteins involved in the development of IPF, as <i>Let-7d</i> targets. We analyzed the role of ADAR1-p110 and ADAR1-p150 isoforms in the regulation of <i>Let-7d</i> maturation and the effect of this regulation on the expression of <i>COL3A1</i> and <i>SMAD2</i> in IPF fibroblast. We demonstrated that differential expression and subcellular distribution of ADAR1 isoforms in fibroblasts contribute to the up-regulation of <i>pri-miR-Let-7d</i> and down-regulation of mature <i>Let-7d</i>. Induction of overexpression of ADAR1 reestablishes the expression of <i>pri-miR-Let-7d</i> and <i>Let-7d</i> in lung fibroblasts. The reduction of mature <i>Let-7d</i> upregulates the expression of <i>COL3A1</i> and <i>SMAD2</i>. Thus, ADAR1 isoforms and <i>Let-7d</i> could have a synergistic role in IPF, which is a promising explanation in the mechanisms of fibrosis development, and the regulation of both molecules could be used as a therapeutic approach in IPF.
